Please find attached a copy of the new brochure for our Comenius courses in France and Spain for April 2013 (I know!).
Successful applicants receive a grant from the British Council which covers all expenses, including course tuition fee, travel to France/Spain, accommodation and subsistence. Places are allocated on a first come first served basis so interested participants must contact us in the first instance to check availability/reserve a place. The deadline date to apply for a grant is Monday 17 September 2012.
60 teachers from all over the UK took part in one of our immersion courses in France/Spain this past April. Overall we had 12 European countries represented. Very exciting!
Do not hesitate to contact us should you require further information on our courses. I would be grateful if you could send on this email to any colleagues whom you think may be interested. And if you have attended one of our courses a few years ago, why don’t you come back for some new adventures in France or Spain ?!...
Many thanks for your continued support.
Bien cordialement,

Immersion Courses in France and Spain for Primary and Secondary School Teachers
Easter 2013 Supported by the European Union COMENIUS/GRUNDTVIG Programme
Le Français en Ecosse has been a Comenius course provider since 2002. Our team of experienced and fully qualified native teachers are committed to promoting French and Spanish language and culture throughout Europe. This is our 11th year working under the Comenius/Grundtvig programme and our expertise in delivering Training Courses for teachers is now recognised by all European National Agencies. Our courses are fun and motivating, and take place in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Lyon, and in Malaga, the capital city of the Costa del Sol in Andalucía.
Participants are encouraged to speak the target language as much as possible in social situations and on the cultural excursions. Different levels are catered for as the class is often broken into smaller groups. The methodology sessions focus on techniques which enable teachers to involve all pupils in learning through the medium of French/Spanish. A cross-curricular approach is favoured and all activities are transferable to the teaching of other Modern Foreign Languages.
Successful applicants receive support from the European Union Comenius/Grundtvig Lifelong Learning Programme available through the British Council / Leargas. The grant of up to €2,500 fully covers the course fee, subsistence and accommodation, as well as travel expenses.

I keep getting a "page not found" error. I will answer the ones I can remember... We've used the AIM programme for three years now. There are two of us who teach French at our school. Up until now, I've taught only the two kindergarten classes and she has taught the rest. Next year, I'll be doing all the French starting in December when she goes on maternity leave. The other teacher went to a one-day workshop in about April of 2009 with great doubts and came back all fired up, really wanting to use it. We both went to the "summer institute" in 2009 and began using the programme that September. There's more written work than I wanted for the kindergarten kids, so after the first year, I used a combination of what I had been doing and the AIM programme. She has used AIM combined with occasional songs and videos from other sources since then. We both attended the summer institute again last year and were able to get different ideas from it. I think that you said something about grades 5 and 6. The "Histoires en Action" kit 1 is probably what you'd want. It has three plays in it, starting with "Les Trois Petits Cochons". AIM recommends one unit for 50 hours of instruction, or about two per year, but we just do one for each grade at our school. Sorry for the delay getting back to you, and I hope this does post. Let me know if you have other questions. Diana
I am looking for a beginer French text book (introduction to french) for middle school. I have tried each previous links on that matter but for some reason none of them seem to work. I would like your opinion regarding: Exploring French (by EMC [link removed].

Caring people (with or without children) are needed to provide food, a bed and a loving home for one or two semesters starting in late August. EMF high school students are between the ages of fifteen and eighteen, have medical insurance, spending money for their personal expenses and expect to share their host family’s daily life including household responsibilities. They speak English, are well-screened and eager to experience life in America. Their stay here is sponsored and supervised by EMF (Educational Merit Foundation), a non-profit, educational exchange organization. Interested host families are encouraged to contact EMF as soon as possible.
