FRANCAIS 1
LES DEBUTANTS
LA PREMIERE ANNEE DE FRANCAIS

BIENVENUE

Please remember that all homework assignments must be passed in the date due.
If an assignment is not done, it will be a ZERO. (0) HW counts for 20% of the grade; and so it stands that a grade of 95 could easily become an 75 if HW is never completed.

On this site, you will find vocabulary lists for each of the chapters we will cover, as well as grammar exercises to help you review and practice for tests and quizzes.

     Day 1: finish vocabulary list that had been assigned over the weekend following a test (10 pts). Use the on-line vocabulary lists to learn definitions. Note that correct prononciation of the Vocab can be found at www.espaces.vhlcentral.com. Complete Exercises 1, 2, & 3 in class (Mise en Pratique) HW: Study Vocab (use websites and games)

     Day 2: Working in pairs, mock conversations (exercises 4, 5, and 6 for inspiration). Sounds and letters (prononciation values)

     Day 3: Watch the video and do comp questions or activities in WB. Students must say answers outloud in French. Gaming, practicing Vocabulary for the Vocabulary quiz.

    HW: COMPOSITION and/or workbook
     COMPOSITION: can be a theme, or several questions from the textbook. Must be minimum 60-75 words and use vocab and grammar from the chapter being studied. Scored on a scale of 100, but the composition average is worth 25% of the quarter grade. Refer to Policy Sheet.

     Day 1: Group correction: Each student to put one or two sentences from his/her composition on the board for group correction (20 minutes) Continue work in the workbook. Written assignments in the book (1 or 2 exercises). Each worth 10 pts. To be reviewed the next class day.

     Day 2: Go over previous night's assignment. Continue work in the workbook/textbook.   Again, all written or prep assignments are worth 10 pts the following class day.

     Day 3:   Finish grammar lessons. One or two readings from the text book? Gaming? Review of grammar concepts and vocabulary and story line. GAMING IS ALWAYS SECONDARY TO COMPLETING THE LEARNING PROCESS.

     Day 4: Examen.   After testing, LE ZAPPING or PANORAMA. Discussion of "projects"?
