James in Belgium Greetings,

There are several ways to get online "authentic" French literature for your classroom.

First, change your browser's search engine to a French one. For example, change Google to Google.fr By using a search that favors French / Français over English, you will get more hits that relevant to what you are looking for. ...See More

James in Belgium Tech in the French classroom...

A little goes a long way. Hum ? Balance is the key. If students can do it at home, then at home, it should be. For example, Flipped Instruction and Quia.web.

The French TV educational websites for classroom instruction, or rather "practice" of using French, then the class room is probably better. ...See More

She gave us the lesson and had us review what we had been learning just like in a normal class. We did board ...See More

by Magda

Aug 8, 2014

I am teaching the IBDP this year. Most students are coming into the program after only 2 years of French because my district is ridiculous. Is there anyone out there that has any tips? I don't know how to do this with students that don't have an adequate foundation in vocabulary and grammar. Ack!

James in Belgium Greetings,

When one speaks of the IB diploma program, one should specify which level of instruction and for which exam the students will sit.

The first level exam is perfectly doable especially if the students started their language course in grade 10. Here below are the different levels with their +/- equivalent level in the tr...See More
