Advanced French (Two year option)

Grade Level: Sophomore/Junior/Senior
Length: One Year
Credit: 1.0 per Year Pass/Fail option
Prerequisite: Teacher Recommendation and French III or Teacher Recommendation and Proficiency Exam


French IV and V have been redesigned and combined in order to create a two year curriculum, entitled Advanced French.

The focus of the course will be continued development of the major skills of listening, speaking, reading, writing and seeing. Topics, interdisciplinary in nature, will include Francophone literature and culture, art, history, cinema, philosophy, science and ethics, as well as current events. Students will be expected to read authentic texts and to do research on an advanced level. Individual and team projects will be an integral part of this course.

Level IV and Level V students will be in the same class, doing the same work. Students have the option of completing only one year of the course, thereby receiving credit for French IV. Those who wish to continue will take the course the following year (different topical selections), receiving credit for French V.
