Intermediate French

The collaborative immersion course concentrates on gaining language proficiency by utilizing authentic materials such as literature, music, film, discussions, and games. Students grasp grammar within meaningful contexts and participate in project-based learning, including producing podcasts, creating movies, and collaborating on small group projects. Evaluation of students' individual progress is carried out through video, audio, and written portfolios.

Assignments

In this short essay, we were tasked with describing our daily routine using reflexive verbs, which refer to oneself performing an action. Although reflexive verbs are not really existent in English, a translation might "he brushed his teeth", where "his" is referring to the subject.

These slides are a summary of the cooking project that French students were given. The task was to find a recipe with origins in a French-speaking country, document the steps (gaining new vocabulary along the way!), and finally, cook something! I chose to make madeleines, which are small sponge cakes with a shell shape. We presented our recipes in class after the project was completed.
