Intermediate French - Year Long 1st-5th

ISL provides a well-rounded French program for those children who have already learned some French for at least one or two years and are able to communicate and understand some concepts beyond the basics.

Apart from the language, children will learn some culture, and traditions where French is spoken. During this program, students will review some basic concepts and will continue to construct conversations as they learn more. They will learn how to make introductions, express feelings, ask questions and hold a basic conversation about everyday situations. Grow their vocabulary and learn the basic tools of grammar to construct sentences. Students will learn about different topics such as: the family, food, the home, sports, at the restaurant, camping and more!

Class sizes are small and taught by native speakers who are experienced teachers of the language and culture, engaging, fun and motivating. Students’ diverse learning modalities are addressed through the following: Conversation, Music, Flashcards, and Storybooks. Instructors use every moment as an opportunity to motivate students to use and practice their speaking skills. During each program we introduce a series of games and activities that develop the skills needed to learn a second language in a consistent and sequential manner.

Parents receive an email from their teacher weekly that includes what was done in class and if there is any homework for the week. This email also includes any ideas to use at home with your child in order to solidify what they are learning in class.

For students who have taken the previous year of Beginner year long French, this class will start with an overview of past year curriculum and will also continue with the new curriculum.
