Core French, Grade 10 Academic

Course Description:
This course provides opportunities for students to communicate in French about personally relevant,
familiar, and academic topics in real-life situations with increasing independence. Students will
exchange information, ideas, and opinions with others in guided and increasingly spontaneous spoken
interactions. Students will continue to develop their language knowledge and skills through the
selective use of strategies that contribute to effective communication. They will also increase their
understanding and appreciation of diverse French-speaking communities, and will continue to develop
the skills necessary to become life-long language learners.
This course helps students to meet the Ontario Catholic School Graduate Expectations by enabling
each person to become an effective communicator who writes and speaks fluently one or both of
Canada's official languages.
