This French course for grades 5-8 will be using the exciting AIM program developed by Wendy Maxwell. Students are expected to actively participate in a variety of individual, small group, and whole class activities including subject-related worksheets. Using AIM will create an environment where the students will: feel comfortable to express themselves in the target language from the first lesson; learn vocabulary through visual, auditory and kinesthetic tools; participate in all activities in the target language based on literature and drama; learn to think and write creatively, while practicing oral communication; and be part of a “learning community” that emphasizes cooperative learning. There are 2 levels of AIM being offered. It is recommended that every student, regardless of grade, start with level 1 and continue with level 2 the following year. Some exceptions may apply.

Each level has a capacity of 15 students and will be hosted in Surrey.

This course is an opportunity for students who school at home to interact and play with other students their age. Under the supervision and direction of a gym instructor, these students meet for one 75 minute gym class per week. This is a fantastic introduction to blended classes and a wonderful way to meet other TLA families and friends!
