FRENCH
In French at Year 7, students are introduced to and become familiar with the sounds of French and recognise similarities with many English words, noting differences in pronunciation. Students are encouraged to listen, speak, read and write in French through a range of interactions. As they adjust language use to suit different situations, students will be able to notice how culture shapes language. Through their studies, students gradually build a vocabulary and grammatical base that allows them to compose and present different kinds of simple texts.
