FRENCH DEPARTMENT
Interschool Coordinator: Dimitrios Anagnostopoulos
French is offered as a 2nd Foreign Language in all three Junior High School grades (2 periods per week) and as a 12th grade High School Elective (2 periods per week). Having studied French for 2 years in Elementary School (4 periods per week), students have an opportunity to continue taking French language courses in Junior High.
French Department Objectives
In addition to approved French textbooks from publishing houses, exercise sheets prepared by French Department members, authentic texts from French newspapers and magazines, as well as audio materials, such as songs, dialogues between native speakers, French films and French television broadcasts (TV5) are used in the teaching of the courses.
Through French courses, students develop teamwork, guided discovery and critical thinking skills, as well an appreciation for multimedia use and life-long learning.
