French III

Course Units: 1.0

In this course, students transition from acquiring language skills to applying these skills to the study of the literature and civilizations of the French-speaking world.  Cultures are explored through a variety of readings (poetry, short stories, a novel) and multi-media resources (videos, CD-ROMS, audio CD’s, the Internet). The first semester is devoted to mainland and overseas France and the second semester to French-speaking countries and regions elsewhere in the world. Communicative competence continues to be improved by enriching skills in all areas involved in language learning:  oral comprehension and expression, grammar, idiomatic vocabulary, reading, writing, and creative usage of the language. Students are eligible to take the French SAT II examination  during this course.  This course has been designated an Honors course by the University of California.
