Inmersión inicial en francés en la escuela secundaria

Do you have a learner interested in the French language? Do they enjoy activities such as show and tell and art? Come and join me in this immersive French experience! In this class, we will do creative, fun activities in French. I will be speaking in French about 50% of the time, depending on the activity and the group of students. 

This class is for students with little to no French knowledge. No pre-requisite abilities are required.

This class is intended to support and welcome students with disabilities. It will be activity and vocabulary based for students who don’t fit with the traditional PowerPoint style of teaching.
