Bienvenue à la classe de Français I
My name is Madame Love, and I am excited that you have decided to study
the French language and culture. I am looking forward to a great class, and
I hope that you will enjoy the semester as much as I am sure that I will!

Webpage: http://www.clover.k12.sc.us//Domain/980

This page provides study tips, links and information for both
students and parents.
My Big Campus: Each student has a MyBigCampus account to access
content for the course. Many helpful resources can be found under our
class group. This resource will be vital in integrating our Mac Book Pros
into the classroom.
Course Overview
This course provides an introduction to the French language and the cultures
of the Francophone world. Students will be introduced to vocabulary
necessary for everyday communication, sentence formation in the present
tense, and insights into customs and cultures.
Class Policies
Follow teacher’s directions at all times.
Have your supplies out and be ready to work at the beginning of class
Be considerate of others
Food, drinks, and gum, with the exception of water, are not permitted in the
classroom.
Dress code will be enforced. No leggings unless your shirt is to your
fingertips
Cell phones are not permitted and should be kept out of sight unless they
are being used for a classroom activity
Expectations
This course covers a vast amount of material in a relatively short
period of time. Therefore, students are expected to be attentive and to
participate fully in classroom activities. Group work is a very important part
of this course and should be taken seriously. Students are expected to
interact with and respect other students, as well as the teacher, at all times.
Students who are unable to abide by the policies of the class will not be
tolerated and will be subject to disciplinary measures at the discretion of the
teacher or administrator.
Grading
40%
Daily grades - quizzes, homework, class work
60%
Major grades – tests* and projects
Assignment due dates may be found in the student’s Outlook Calendar on
the MacBook. Late assignments will be assessed a penalty of 10 pts per day
***Assignments missed due to absence are to be made up outside of class
time at the discretion of the teacher and within one week of the absence.
Otherwise, the student will receive a 0 for the assignment. This is the
STUDENT’S RESPONSIBILITY!!!
*Any test on which a student makes a grade of 77 or below may be retaken
outside of class time for a maximum score of 77 within a week of the original
test date.
Extra Credit
Extra points can be earned in the form of Euros (the currency of
France).
Euros can be earned by: exceptional classroom participation or
performance, classroom games and contests, and cultural sharing.*
*cultural sharing includes culturally relevant newspaper or magazine
articles, web pages, photos, artifacts, etc. brought in by the student and
briefly shared with the class.
Euros can be redeemed for:
Extra points: 1 Euro = 1 point on a daily grade
2 Euros = 1 point on a major grade
10 Euros = Homework Pass
*The Euros must be turned in with the assignment or assessment.
Technology
During the semester, we will use a variety of technology, including student
MacBook Airs and iPads, to take notes, review concepts, play games and
work on projects. Students are to work only on French-related content
during class and may not play games or access media websites without
teacher permission. Each student is required to have a charged MacBook Air
each day. Students will NOT be allowed to charge their laptops during class.
Any student who does not have a charged computer will have to complete
assignments on paper during class and transfer any computer-based
assignments to their computer for homework.
Extra Help
PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK FOR EXTRA HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can help you by appointment before school or after school. In addition to
one on one help, there are many computer resources available. The
textbook website and class page activities are also very helpful as a source
of review and practice. They can be found on my school web page or by
accessing the MyBigCampus class page
Students may also find it helpful to find a friend to study with in person, by
phone, or on line.
Homework
Students have homework EVERY DAY! Even when no written assignment is
given, it is IMPERATIVE that students spend a minimum of 15 minutes per
night reviewing material covered in class. I am sure that if you make daily
review a habit, you will find the course much easier.
Getting a “little behind” in your work can be academically fatal!
***Late homework assignments WILL NOT be accepted.
Materials
Students are expected to have the following materials for class:
Pen or pencil and Paper
At least one dry erase marker
Ear buds/headphones (with microphone if possible)
Tissue
Hand sanitizer
Enjoying the Course
In order to make this course as enjoyable as possible, I urge you to
participate fully in class. In addition, the French Club meets the 2nd Tuesday
of each month.
