Foreign Language Exploratory: French, German & Japanese – Grades 4 – 6 – Winter 2022 – 10 Weeks

Our world is growing ever more connected; students will have an advantage if they are able to nurture those connections through the understanding of foreign languages and cultures.  In this course students will explore the French, German, and Japanese languages and cultures.

Ms. Rachel believes this introduction to the study of foreign languages and cultures should be fun!  Along with learning greetings and other vocabulary, we will have lots of hands-on craft projects, and students will be encouraged to earn the World Connections Through Cuisine Award (yum!).

Goals:

1. Students will be introduced to the reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills needed to study foreign languages and cultures
2. Students will strengthen writing and speaking skills in English
3. Students will explore a variety of foreign languages before possibly choosing one on which to focus later in their schooling
4. Students will respect both similarities and differences between multiple cultures and languages

About one week before the course, students will be mailed the instructor-made Viewpoints workbook as well as a kit with specialty craft supplies.

Students can expect approximately one hour of homework weekly.
