Let’s Read French Books
Reading books is a great way to learn a language. It helps to discover the culture, to learn new words, to be exposed to different language structures in the context. But, one of the biggest challenges in the language and literature classes is to encourage the students to read. This project aims to make reading literary books easier for the students by creating an open textbook reader using Public Domain 19th century French literature. Along with the text, there are activities for students to engage with and discover the text.
Includes: Questions, interactive activities, and vocabulary (with audio for pronunciation).
May suit: FRENCH 2JJ3/2L03.
Chapeau! First-Year French
Chapeau! is a first-year college text. Although it may appear, at first glance, to move very fast and introduce a large amount of material early, the vocabulary and grammatical structures that students are expected to control actively by the end of the year are limited in accord with our notion of a reasonable application of the ACTFL proficiency guidelines.
Includes: Workbook, and audio exercises.
May suit: FRENCH 1A06.
Au Boulot! First-Year French
Au boulot! is a two-year college French program consisting of: a textbook, workbook and 21 accompanying audio exercises; as well as a reference grammar, to be used the entire two years. The text and workbook are shorter and “lighter” than the average first-year texts have become in recent years, at least in part because we want to provide a core of grammar presentation and exercises, both mechanical and creative, while allowing instructors the flexibility to choose their own reading materials, of which there is a variety of excellent ones available.
Includes: Workbook, audio exercises, and reference grammar book.
May suit: FRENCH 1Z06/2Z06.
