Program January - March 2021
During the French Language & Literature Class, students will analyse books including the Beauty and the Beast by J.M. LePrince de Beaumont, the Little Prince by St. Exupery and poetic texts about “travel”. The vast variety of genres will allow students to expand their knowledge as well as to push their boundaries in working with different materials in the class. Furthermore, students will during the class have an opportunity to review the methods of reading, analysing and understanding theatre and poetry sources, as well as to learn about the characteristics of literary movements including Romanticism and Symbolism among others. Students will also be working individually and collaboratively on a number of different assignments to practice their newly gained skills and knowledge. The class will review the grammatical natures and functions, the simple tenses of the indicative and the figures of speech.
