Course Title
Year 9 French
About
This is a one-year course dedicated to learning about the French language and culture. The first semester is all about food! We learn food vocabulary, how to talk about meals, how to order at a café and book a restaurant. Term 3 we learn about vocabulary necessary to talk about your home “Chez toi” builds on what you learnt in Year 7. This goes further in that we also look at advertisements for selling or renting houses. Term 4 is a film study on the second film of “Belle et Sebastien” which follows on from the first one you saw in Year 7. This involves a cultural look at World War 2 and the events relating to this movie.
