If your current French student would like to increase their French vocabulary, listening, reading, and writing skills, this is a great class for your learner. Students will learn the structures, forms, voices, repetitions, and what the French 'e muet' is. Students will also learn about 9 French poets, their history, impact on the world of poetry, and we will read works from each poet. As the class progresses, students will work on their own poetry anthology in French. The final class, students will present their poems to the class. 

This class is best suited for intermediate-advanced students. This is not a class for beginning French students. Students will read, speak, listen, and write in French. Although this is not a full immersion class, students and the teacher will be speaking in French for the majority of the classes.
