Oct., 22 & 23, 2009
Feb 11 & 12, 2010
July 5 - 14, 2010

**This highly innovative course invites all teachers who wish to hone their French skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking.  Using the communicative-experiential approach, the instructors lead the participants through interactive activities that prepare them to succeed in a wide variety of projects throughout the year.  These projects and teaching techniques can be transferred directly to the classroom. This program is designed for participants functioning at all levels of French (beginner to advanced). For true beginners (those with little or no French), it is essential that they take the July 8-day course before registering for the October and February language maintenance professional development sessions.

APPELS EN-CORE

April 8 & 9, 2010

**This is for the FL2 enthusiasts having an intermediate or higher ability who desire more in-depth study in reading and writing, listening and speaking while exploring French culture in project-driven small group activities.  The one-on-one interaction with the “animateurs” ensures learning and practice.
