FBISD French 2 Course Description: Students will progress toward a novice-Mid to novice-high level of proficiency, as defined by the ACTFL standards (www.actfl.org), as they continue to develop their skills in the Five program Goals of the TEKS for language other Than English: communication, cultures, connections, comparisons, and communities. Some students may start to show evidence of the novice-high proficiency level and beyond. Students will be assessed regularly in the three modes of communication: interpersonal (unscripted conversation in order to complete a task), interpretive (reading, listening, viewing), and presentational (rehearsed and revised oral and written products). The focus of the course is authentic, real-world communication, as students make connections and compare their own language and culture to the communities of the French-speaking (Francophone) world.
