The strategy of adquisition is based on the observation, the reflection, the systematization, and then, the production. Each unit proposes the student to get elements of language-culture, for which could be used for guided or free productions and in concrete works of daily life. This works implicates the student on communication actions which are carried out in a clear social context and which end in mesurable production and result. A2 Level: It¿s acquired when the student is able to understand sentences and expressions whose use is frequent, and they are related to personal experience areas which are relevant for it (basic information about itself and its family, shopping, interesting places, jobs, etc.); when it knows how to communicate by the time of accomplishing simple and daily works which don¿t require more than easy and direct exchanges of information about unknown or uncommon issues, and when it knows how to describe, in simple and plain words, aspects of its past and its surroundings, as well as issues related to its immediate needs.
Description of contents: programme
Students will be able to accomplish works in various aspects of social life, thanks to the adquisition of communicatory, linguistic and cultural knowledges, and thanks to the fulfilment of real learning strategies. The strategy we choose adapts perfectly to the contents of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, and Assessment: work on defined assignments, formative develoment, self-evaluation, mind opening to the plurality of languages and cultures. At the end of the school year, students will achieve the competence of level A2.1 Please see Weekly Planning for further information.
Learning activities and methodology
The subject has planned a total of 3 ECTS. Students' hours spent in studying will be kept in mind for compute them. Teacher methodology Classes follow a communicative method; each communicative objective implies a part of theorical lesson (grammar and lexical) and a series of oral and written exercises. Class hours: 14 Student hours: 49 A specific area will be set up in AULA GLOBAL in which each teacher, at the beginning of every four-month period, the timetable and the place where tutorials will be made and the customized assistance of students. Two additional colective tutorials are added as a complement of individual tutorials. These are guidance sessions, review or doubt explanations, which assistance is only voluntary for students. Therefore, they won't be used to increase the content of programmes and they are not evaluative. As far as a four-month period is concerned, it is highly recommended that the student doesn't give up on studying the language during the second four-month period for settling its knowledge. The Tourism Centre will work in collaboration with the Language Centre. Besides, the student will dispose of material settled to the study of all 4 skills in libraries: manuals of grammar, vocabulary and phonetics, exercises notebooks about listening and reading comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, self-learning methods, balanced lectures in French, French films in OV and docummentaries related to tourism. Resources will be found in language laboratories too.
