Year 9 French

Overview

In this course, students will deepen their understanding of the structure of the French language and acquire a more extensive vocabulary over a variety of topics. They will also become more skilful as communicators as the sophistication of their writing increases and more adept at accessing reading and listening materials.

Topics

  • The Individual: This is Where I Live, Making Arrangements
  • French Speaking Communities: Taking Public Transport, Clothes and Fashion, Food and Eating Out
  • The French World: Let's go Shopping, Young People's Lives

Assessments

The students' achievement is reviewed by completing regular assessment and testing. These assessments are undertaken in a number of ways via collection and marking of students' work as well as in class assessments at the end of each topic. Topics vary in duration depending on the outcome required for each skill.

Outcome One: Listening and Responding
Outcome Two: Spoken Interaction
Outcome Three: Viewing, Reading and Responding
Outcome Four: Writing

All Year 9 students complete the Assessment of Language Competence in French.

A Excellent: The student demonstrates achievement that has greatly exceeded the expected standard. Their achievement is well beyond what is expected at this year level.

B Good: The student demonstrates achievement that exceeds the expected standard.

C Satisfactory: The student demonstrates achievement at the expected standard. The student is able to progress to the next level of learning.

D Limited: The student demonstrates achievement below the expected standard. The student demonstrates a quality of learning that is adequate for progression but will still need additional support or assistance to progress.

E Very Low: The student demonstrates achievement below the minimum acceptable for this year level.

Student expectations
