Current Course Description: This sequence of courses is open to any student who wishes to begin the study of French or has had less than one year of high school French or its equivalent. Focuses on real-life language use, the integration of culture and language, and the four skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening. Prerequisite: FR 101 is a prerequisite for FR 102; FR 102 is a prerequisite for FR 103 |
New Course Description: In the third term of the introductory French sequence, students learn to talk in past tenses about their memories of what they did as children while also learning about traditions and childhood activities of their Francophone counterparts. Contexts include real life issues of children and adolescents. An entire chapter focuses on food, including shopping and eating at home and in restaurants. From food, the curriculum of FR103 moves to geography, weather, and the environment. Throughout FR103, students are expanding their vocabulary and knowledge of the French-speaking world while developing a more sophisticated command of the French language. Prerequisite: FR 102 or instructor permission |
