French 11

At this      At this point in their studies, students are able to interact with growing confidence

                in familiar situaltions and apply their developing range of language-

                learning strategies more consistently. They are more able to take risks while

                engaging in spontaneous interactions using an ever-expanding range of

               internalized vocabulary and structures. Descriptive abilities include linking and

               sequencing of narrative. Self and peer assessment are used to support

               students as they acquire and practice useful vocabulary, structures

               and interactions.

               Students use their oral and written skills to convey information

               for particular purposes and audiences. They also begin to show greater

               sophistication in their responses to a variety of situations. At this level, the

               complexity of students' ideas may exceed their ability to express themselves in

               French, particularily when making cultural observations and comparispons

               about Francophone culture in countries other than Canada.
