1 AP French Language and Culture I Objectives This course is designed to prepare students for the AP French Language and Culture examination. It is conducted exclusively in French and students are expected and encouraged to do likewise. AP French students review and refine what they have already learned: grammatical structures while they are exposed to new vocabulary needed to communicate in French on a variety of topics. Therefore, AP French course emphasizes all aspects of language: speaking, listening, reading, writing and culture. There are 3 groups of learning objectives identifying what students should know and be able to do across three modes of communication. These objectives outline expectations of student abilities in the following areas: Interpersonal Communication: spoken and written Presentational Communication: spoken and written Interpretative communication: Written, print, audio, visual, and audiovisual II Teaching Strategies -Speaking: French is used in the classroom almost exclusively and students are expected to communicate solely in French. -Oral Participations in various presentational, interpretative, and interpersonal contexts. Students complete class projects, engage in peer conversation, impromptu speeches, and informal debates or discussions. -Cultural comparison/ oral presentations in class: Students make presentations, reflect on their performance and that of others, and provide feedback. Through a presentational and interpersonal practice, they gain and improve not only their speaking but listening skills. -Description of pictures from various media: magazines, advertisements etc Students are assigned multiple tasks where they describe, narrate, hypothesize, ask and answer questions. This provides opportunities for students to demonstrate their ability in interpretative communication. -Groups or partner short conversations or even role play -Play games in small groups such as Tabou or charades -In class discussions of literary and non-literary texts with respect to themes, explication de texte, literary movements and author biography. -My students have somewhat limited worldview, so this AP French Language and Culture course affords them an opportunity to expand their horizons. As they are more familiar with North America and Europe, I spend additional time studying, discovering North Africa, and many other Francophone countries. Students are required to create and present orally an original Francophone trademark that reflects an aspect of the French culture. This provides opportunities for students to demonstrate their proficiency in spoken presentational communication.
2 -Reading Students are given ample opportunities to read. Since the focus of this course is the Francophone world, they are exposed to a number of different types of print and online media resources for the cultural readings. Media and literary excerpts are integrated into coursework along with out-ofclass reading from authentic text. Assessment of the reading takes one of these forms: -in-class discussion, -textual analysis, -short presentations, multiple-choice questions. Novels, plays, literary texts of various genres including novels, poetry, theater; and articles ranging from news, magazine, and online discussion are incorporated in order to expose students to different types of reading from Francophone world. Moreover, these offer students the chance to read varying points of view on many of the course themes. -Listening French is spoken in class exclusively. I use gestures and try to paraphrase and reinforce meaning whenever necessary. I use various resources to enhance their listening skills: AP practice-exercises from AP French (Ladd) with audio texts, audio print, music and video with different French accents. The activities include dictée, paraphrasing and text completion to promote comprehension. -Writing Students are given several written tasks to complete every 2-3 weeks. They are to write a formal, well organized analytical or persuasive essay that is evaluated for its content, vocabulary and grammatical correctness. All writing practice are assigned and completed during a class period, in order to best simulate the testing format and environment. The use of dictionaries is prohibited at AP level. The lessons include instruction on thesis writing, brainstorming, organization, transitional terms, and peer review. I imitate the Written Interpersonal and Written Presentational prompts. I choose topics that reinforce the cultural and grammatical structures currently under study. Once students complete their writing assignment, I do not make correction myself. Instead, I devise a color-coded system to proof my students writing, using highlighter markers to indicate problem areas relating to agreement, word choice or usage, verb tense, mood, or conjugation, syntax or meaning. Students must make corrections and resubmit an edited version of their essay in order to improve their scores. They are allowed then to use dictionaries or any grammar reference. I use the AP rubric-scoring guide to grade these writing assignments, but then convert to a percentage. Students practice answering comprehension questions from different types of readings, learn how to support their responses by selecting key passages that exemplify textual elements of plot/ character, structure, style and theme. Moreover, they are required to research and include autobiographical information and any other pertaining details. In order to enhance students writing, editing and peer review skills, cultural projects including writing and illustrating an original children book, comic book, or translating a well-known story into French, are assigned.
3 Finally, students take part of a weekly blog discussion where they are asked to show their writing skills in a real world exchange of ideas. -Culture and Technology *Visit to the French pavilion at EPCOT to practice their speaking skills. *Video excerpts from French and Francophone films, commercial clips followed by class discussions and written presentations in which students describe the content viewed. *Most students have access to a computer at home which is very useful to assign a web based research at home or in class: internet review, use of websites for grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. * Once a week, the class meets in a computer language lab.
