EntreCultures® is a four-level, standards-based, thematically organized program consisting of six in-depth units per level, providing learners with opportunities to interact and engage with authentic materials and adolescent speakers of the language. By learning in an intercultural context, students acquire communication skills and content knowledge while exploring the products, practices, and perspectives of French-speaking cultures.
EntreCultures® aims to prepare learners to communicate, explore, and connect across cultures in order to foster attitudes of mutual understanding and respect.

Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to EntreCultures® 2!
EntreCultures® is based on the belief that the purpose of learning languages is to communicate and interact with cultural competence. EntreCultures® balances communicative and intercultural goals via dynamic and engaging activities, interactions, and tutorials. Students will see and hear a variety of young people throughout the program, helping them to interact with the relevant and culturally rich topics that they are studying in class.
EntreCultures® 1 laid the foundation for students to build proficiency through the Novice level. With EntreCultures® 2, students continue from Novice High and enter into the Intermediate range. This approach prepares students to eventually progress toward the proficiency levels expected in programs such as AP® and IB.
In order to achieve the intercultural goals of each unit, students are offered frequent opportunities to comment and reflect on what they have learned about the target cultures, which promotes an attitude of understanding and acceptance of other cultures.
Following the guidelines of the World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages, EntreCultures® features multiple strategies designed to help students interpret and express themselves with expanding literacy while learning to communicate and interact with cultural acumen.

EntreCultures® fully supports the ten High-Leverage Teaching Practices (HLTP) identified by Glisan and Donato.1
Acquiring language is an unconscious process. In order for an independent language system to develop in the brain, learners must interact with large amounts of compelling input that is comprehensible and meaningful to them. Likewise, learners must have opportunities to engage with others to express themselves in the language. We strongly encourage classes to be conducted 90 percent or more in French from the beginning of Level 1. To facilitate this, EntreCultures® focuses on high-frequency vocabulary used in real-world contexts that interest students. Authentic resources are supported by images and other context clues. Emphasis is also placed on word families and cognates to expand vocabulary.2
Interacting with others is at the heart of communication. EntreCultures® provides a variety of real-world oral and written interpersonal communication tasks in every unit. Students have opportunities to exchange information and ideas; to meet needs and address situations; and to express, react, and support preferences and opinions in a range of formats, including in-class pair or group discussions, text message exchanges, formal and informal email exchanges, AP®-style simulated conversations, posting and responding to posts in an online discussion forum, and more. The communication is meaningful, purposeful, and engaging. Where needed, there is just-in-time support such as Rappel features to remind students of previously learned material, Détail linguistique and Détail grammatical features with useful language information, and Expressions utiles or On peut aussi dire features for personalized vocabulary.
Authentic materials provide language in real-life contexts as well as insight into target-culture perspectives. Learners interact with authentic resources in a wide variety of text types involving print, audio, video, and images. Activities that accompany these resources are designed to “edit the task, not the text,” to ensure that students can access the information. Interacting with resources created for and by native speakers allows learners to reflect on cultural products, practices, and perspectives to develop interculturality. In addition to a wealth of authentic resources, vloggers from across the francophone world provide unscripted language and a glimpse into their lives. See “Cultivating Interculturality” (p. TE18) and “Integrating Interculturality in Teaching and Learning” (p. TE19) in this section.

2 See “Staying in the Target Language” in this section (pp. TE22) for more information about the roles of comprehensible input and comprehensible output in EntreCultures®
Découvrons sections in each unit introduce language structures in context through PACE, an acronym for Presentation, Attention, Co-Construction, and Extension. Learners are encouraged to look for language patterns and develop hypotheses about how language works. Short videos provide additional language in context and model the discovery process. See “Grammar Instruction in Context” (p. TE30) in this section for more information.
In addition to interacting directly with authentic resources, Zoom culture segments provide information about products and practices seen in the unit and include questions designed to guide students in reflecting about similar products or practices in their own communities and in the target culture. Students respond in a discussion forum, where they can read and respond to one another’s ideas. Réflexion interculturelle encourages students to identify perspectives and make cultural comparisons. The J’y arrive summative assessments include an assessment of interculturality based on the unit theme. Each unit concludes with a section called Notre communauté mondiale, which provides opportunities to use French in the real world to investigate culture and interact with the global community of French speakers.
Providing specific and timely feedback is one of the top ten influences on student achievement, according to Hattie (2009).3 While oral corrective feedback is the responsibility of the teacher, EntreCultures® supports other ways of providing feedback to students. Teachers have access to a variety of rubrics, including analytic, holistic, single-point, and assessment-specific. Teachers can give written feedback or record oral feedback for every online activity as well as in response to student self-assessment using the Portfolio. See “Assessing Language Performance in Context” (p. TE32) and “Rubrics” (p. TE33) in this section.
EntreCultures® provides real-world settings and purposes for every activity so that learners understand the greater purpose and benefits of developing their proficiency in French. The Notre communauté mondiale section of each unit encourages students to engage directly with French speakers to make language and culture come alive. See “Vocabulary Instruction in Context” (p. TE29), “Grammar Instruction in Context” (p. TE30), and “Assessing Language Performance in Context” (p. TE32) in this section.
3 Hattie, J.A.C. (2009). Visible learning. New York, NY: Routledge.
EntreCultures® was developed using the backward design process. Authors began planning each unit by identifying the essential questions and learning objectives based on target proficiency levels and Advanced Placement® (AP®) themes, finding authentic resources, developing the J’y arrive summative assessment, and then creating each Communiquons section, beginning with the J’avance formative assessment and working backwards to design the learning experiences. In this way, authors ensure that activities support formative assessments and that formative assessments lead to success on summative assessments.
EntreCultures® provides many opportunities for students to engage in presentational writing in real-world contexts in a variety of genres, including narrating a story or personal event, describing events, giving instructions, expressing and supporting opinions, sharing research, and more. Students interact with authentic resources that become models for presentational writing tasks as they develop literacy in French. In addition, Learning Strategy videos provide students with explicit guidance for tasks such as writing a formal email, inviting someone to an event, preparing a comparative presentation, and constructing an argumentative essay.
EntreCultures® uses performance-based assessments to show what students can do in real-world contexts. While activities within the Communiquons sections may push students to higher performance levels, the formative and summative assessments are written to demonstrate proficiency at the target levels, which have been determined based on current research in the field. All assessments are designed around authentic, respectful tasks that mirror what has been taught and practiced in the Communiquons sections. Each assessment includes tasks in each mode of communication: interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational. The summative assessment in each unit is an Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) that includes interculturality and brings together the unit’s essential questions. See “Assessing Language Performance in Context” (p. TE32) in this section.
EntreCultures® operates on the cutting-edge principle that to develop language skills and foster intercultural understanding, learners need multiple opportunities to reflect on their own culture and gain cultural knowledge of francophone communities early in the language-learning process.
In each unit, prompts for intercultural reflection and can-do self-assessments support teachers with the integration of cultural awareness, appreciation, and understanding within each theme.
• Cultural Products & Practices1: Learners use their language skills to investigate the world beyond their familiar environment.
• Cultural Perspectives: Learners use their language skills to recognize and understand others’ ways of thinking as well as their own.
• Intercultural Interactions: Learners use their language skills and cultural understanding to interact in a cultural context other than their own.

This graphic shows interculturality (i) at the core of learning languages, encompassing all of the goal areas of the World-Readiness Standards, the communicative modes, and the steps a learner takes to acquire the mindset of an intercultural citizen: Knowing Myself, Exploring Communities, and Engaging with the World. The learning environment cultivates the attitudes of curiosity, open-mindedness, respect, tolerance, and empathy towards others that lead learners to want to communicate and engage in another language.
with permission
Interculturality is an outcome of a learning environment that purposefully cultivates the attitudes of curiosity, open-mindedness, respect, tolerance, and empathy towards others.
As learners become comfortable with learning about others and their cultures through products, practices, perspectives, and interactions, they develop the skills to reflect on their feelings, thoughts, perceptions, and reactions to understand what it is like to be in someone else’s shoes.

First of all, talk to learners about the use of French in the classroom. Remind them that they are not expected to understand everything that they hear, read, or see. Just as in English, they need to infer meaning based on the words they know, along with any visual clues or body language. Learning a language requires learners to tolerate ambiguity.
Comprehensible input (CI) is based on Stephen Krashen’s input hypothesis6 that second-language acquisition occurs when learners receive an optimal quantity of comprehensible input that is just beyond their current level of competence (i +1); “i” indicates input at the current competence of the learner, and “+1” represents the next level of competence. It is the language that the learner is not yet able to produce but still understands.
Hearing and seeing chunks of functional and high frequency language: Maintenant nous allons…
Real world and/or personalized examples and tasks set in a cultural context
Comprehensible output is based on Merrill Swain’s output hypothesis7 that learners need opportunities to produce output that is meaningful, purposeful, and motivating so that they can engage in collaborative dialogue, using and reflecting on what they have learned, to produce output that communicates what they want to say or write. The learning takes place in the struggle to produce appropriate output.
Negotiating meaning: asking for clarification and using circumlocution
Participating actively in the process of noticing and discovery
See pages T28 and T29 for specific examples of what comprehensible input (CI) and comprehensible output (CO) look and sound like in the classroom.

EntreCultures® is designed to assist teachers in achieving at least 90 percent use of French in the classroom beginning in Level 1 and eventually moving to 100 percent in Levels 2 and 3, providing guidance on implementing the ACTFL Position Statement (2010) on Use of the Target Language in the Classroom. 8
Bill VanPatten sums it up this way: “Communicative ability develops in only one way: through engaging in communication. That is, people learn to communicate by engaging in acts of expressing and interpreting meaning in many varied contexts. Communicative ability cannot be “drilled.” It cannot be practiced in the traditional sense of practice. Communicative ability develops because we find ourselves in communicative contexts. Thus, output (the expression of meaning) plays a major role in the development of communicative ability.”

There are multiple levels of support to help teachers stay in the target language:
• Teacher notes in the Teacher Edition address what to say and do to make language comprehensible for learners.
• A series of Learning Strategies videos teaches learners to build their communicative skills (for example, showing how to request clarification and assistance).
• A rich variety of visuals in the Student Edition and online allows learners to associate vocabulary and structures directly with images and contexts, rather than with a translation.
• Activities have built-in comprehension checks and formative assessments
• A variety of scaffolded interpersonal tasks encourage learners to negotiate for meaning and be creative with the target language.
• Rubrics, designed as informative tools for teachers, provide feedback to learners to help them monitor their own growth.
• Ongoing progress checks encourage learners to monitor how well they are able to meet the communicative and intercultural goals.
• Online resources allows learners to record audios and videos, while teachers can provide audio and textual feedback on each recording.
• Animated instructional videos for grammatical concepts (Découvrons) help learners to focus attention on grammatical patterns in French after they have processed contextual examples. These videos include explanations in English, except in Levels 3 and 4, so that learners can view them outside of the classroom and class time can be dedicated to target-language use.

What do comprehensible input (CI) and comprehensible output (CO) look like and sound like in the classroom?
As the teacher provides CI in the ways described under What The Teacher Does (CI), student engagement in the learning process What Students Do (CO) builds proficiency toward comprehensible output. See “Staying in the Target Language” in this section for an overview of language-acquisition theories on comprehensible input and comprehensible output.

As the world shrinks and global interaction becomes more commonplace, acquiring more than one language is essential for all students, not just for those in advanced programs. Moreover, world language classrooms are comprised of a mix of students who acquire language at different rates and in different ways. EntreCultures® recognizes that teachers must actively plan for varied approaches to what students will learn, how they will learn, and how they will show what they know and can do.
For this reason, the program embraces a differentiated instructional approach, which meets the needs of the learner by appealing to a variety of interests and offering varied levels of complexity to accommodate multiple rates of learning.
According to the work of Carol Ann Tomlinson9, differentiation is a teacher’s response to learners’ needs based on guiding principles, such as continuous assessment, flexible grouping, and respectful tasks. Effective teachers weave differentiation into three areas of the curriculum: content (what students will learn), process (how students will acquire the content), and product (how students will demonstrate and extend what they know and can do) based on their own interests, learning profiles, and readiness levels.
EntreCultures® invites teachers to differentiate their classrooms through the five “non-negotiable” principles of Tomlinson’s approach by incorporating a variety of strategies and activities.
9 Carol Ann Tomlinson, The Differentiated Classroom, 2nd ed., ASCD, Alexandria, Va. (2014).

Units are designed to build a sense of community among students, which promotes risktaking and collaboration. Online activities extend support via a variety of tools to facilitate differentiation, such as scaffolding and supplementary resources.
Each unit includes a series of activities and steps that provide teachers with ongoing feedback on learners’ progress. These activities include the following:
• pre-assessment tasks, which tap into learners’ background knowledge, interests, and readiness levels
• formative assessments, which build learners’ content knowledge and skills in the language and provide both teacher and learner with evidence of progress toward proficiency through a variety of tasks and check-ins (When needed, two additional tiered versions of the J’avance formative assessments are available online so that teachers can empower students of all ability levels to demonstrate their progress via an appropriately rigorous and challenging task.)
• summative assessments, which are performance based to enable learners to demonstrate what they know and can do in the language
EntreCultures® lays the foundation for learners to build proficiency from Novice through Intermediate levels, preparing them to meet the more challenging expectations for proficiency and content in programs such as Advanced Placement® and International Baccalaureate.
Unit topics are relevant and based in contexts that immerse students in the cultures that speak the language. Activities and assessments incorporate authentic sources and are set in theme-related, real-life cultural contexts. Tasks promote student choice and demonstration of what learners can do in the language. Moreover, tasks are tiered from the Novice through the Intermediate levels to promote higher-level thinking.
Suggestions are provided for diversified grouping scenarios that are dynamic in nature and that vary based on learners’ interests, learning modalities, and readiness levels.
EntreCultures® recognizes that students in North American classrooms come from increasingly diverse backgrounds, and that a growing number of them are heritage learners of French—students who may have varying levels of exposure to the language or its cultures in their homes or communities. Online resources help meet the needs of heritage learners of French.
Heritage learners...
1. grow up in homes or communities where French is spoken;
2. may speak French or only understand it;
3. may never have studied the language in school.

Vocabulary Development
Provide rich exposure to French and develop vocabulary through comprehensible input. Encourage heritage learners to expand their vocabulary by seeking out online resources such as magazines or films that interest them.
Literacy Development
Expand the bilingual range of heritage learners by providing engaging textual, audio, and visual materials from a variety of contexts. Heritage learners may struggle with reading and writing; provide open-ended writing tasks to allow them to express themselves at their level. Provide specific feedback and support to help them improve.
Cooperative Learning
Provide learners with opportunities to use French in meaningful, purposeful, and interesting ways to build self-esteem and confidence in their academic and social skills.
Include references to students’ bicultural world and acknowledge their bilingual abilities. Bilingual and heritage students often receive negative messages about their language ability and cultural identity, so stay positive; validate and include in your curriculum examples of the language varieties used in heritage communities.
EntreCultures® introduces vocabulary in thematic chunks to fulfill the specific communicative goals indicated in the Mon progrès communicatif can-do learning targets throughout the units. Vocabulary is presented visually, in context, and with French synonyms or definitions at Levels 3 and 4 when appropriate.
All unit activities include listening, reading, and/or viewing comprehensible input that focuses on the target vocabulary in a thematic context. Following the input, a variety of interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational tasks in communicative and cultural contexts enables learners to produce the vocabulary they have processed for meaning. Additional vocabulary practice and vocabulary tasks in the context of each unit are in the Workbook.
EntreCultures® presents unit vocabulary in several manageable groupings:
• Comment dit-on ? is essential vocabulary for the thematic unit, needed for success on the formative and summative assessments, and for use beyond the classroom.
• Expressions utiles are useful expressions, transition words, and idioms highlighted for learners to use in communicative tasks.
• Vous savez déjà presents cognates related to the unit theme.
• Synthèse : Vocabulaire is a compilation of unit vocabulary organized by topics at the end of each unit, before the summative assessment.
EntreCultures® provides a series of Learning Strategies videos demonstrating studentfriendly strategies that help learners maximize their language learning, including vocabulary building. These videos are geared for Novice through Intermediate learners; all videos are in English with examples in French and are available online.

The EntreCultures® series aligns with the collaborative, co-constructive or dialogic10 approach to grammar instruction. This approach takes into account the sociocultural and interactive aspects of learning while balancing inductive and deductive discovery techniques. Learners are provided with multiple opportunities to personalize meaning of language in context through listening, viewing, and reading before they are asked to notice patterns or word order in the same familiar context.
Learners observe highlighted grammatical features in communicative contexts that they have previously processed for meaning, and are then asked to analyze the salient features of the targeted structure. This approach allows learners to take an active role in co-constructing the grammar concept by collaborating with peers and the teacher. The structures are integrated into theme-based communicative tasks. Additional, optional grammar practice, tasks, and animated videos on most Découvrons concepts are available online.
This feature provides grammar or vocabulary reminders from prior levels or units that learners will need for communicative tasks at their current level.
Here, students see a detailed explanation of a new grammar feature needed for them to complete specific communicative tasks in the unit activities. In Levels 1 and 2, the explanations are in English; in Levels 3 and 4, they are in French.
This reference resource summarizes the structures presented in the unit for self study outside of class and when preparing for assessments.

10 Glisan, E. W. & Shrum, J. L. (2016). Teacher’s Handbook: Contextualized Language Instruction. 5th ed. Boston, MA: Cengage Learning.
Animated videos provide reinforcement and additional instruction of grammatical concepts. They are designed to be used outside the classroom to help the teacher to speak French more consistently in the classroom. The videos feature recurring characters who focus learners’ attention on noticing grammar patterns in a familiar context. Graphic organizers and activities are available online to support the learner while the videos are being viewed.
• Découvrons videos model the inductive approach to teaching grammar. The videos are in English in Levels 1 and 2; videos in Levels 3 and 4 are in French. Students can watch the Découvrons video after they have discovered patterns on the same grammatical structure in the classroom.
• If the teacher is new to the inductive approach, these Découvrons videos can serve as models for how to present new material in this framework.
• Structure en avant videos model the deductive approach, with an explicit description of the grammatical structures. All videos are in English with examples in context in French, and are designed to be used by learners outside the classroom.
1. Focus attention on the properties of language after ensuring students comprehend the meaning of the language that they are asked to notice.
2. Use guiding questions such as the following:
• What patterns did you see?
• Can you summarize your observations?
3. Engage in a think-pair-share hypothesis process:
• Jot down any observations individually.
• Share observations with classmates.
• Share conclusions with the class and teacher.
4. Co-construct grammar paradigm explanations with the teacher and the class:
• Collaborate: What are the hypotheses? What conclusions have you drawn?
• Provide more models for the students to test their hypotheses.
• Draw final conclusions.
5. Provide purposeful communicative applications.
EntreCultures® applies the backward-design planning process, beginning with the end in mind; that is, each unit leads students to what they will need to know and be able to do to demonstrate their communicative skills and cultural and content knowledge at the end of the unit. Essential questions and unit performance goals were developed first, followed by a standards-based Integrated Performance Assessment12 (IPA) for the unit. The unit activities, communicative tasks, and formative performance-based tasks are developed with the IPA in mind.
J’y arrive, a summative IPA, is a series of interrelated performance-based tasks integrating each communicative mode in a personalized cultural context based on the goals of the thematic unit. Each unit’s table of contents provides a glimpse of the IPA; a more detailed overview of the thematic summative assessment can be found at the end of each unit. The assessment itself, instructions, and IPA analytic rubrics are available online.
The Can-Do Assessment Path highlights the backward design by incorporating the Assessed CanDo Icon x in the Teacher’s Edition at point-of-use for each activity where it applies. This visual indicator allows teachers to identify which Mon progrès communicatif Can-Do statements are threaded into the formative assessment, the J’avance section.
J’avance is a formative assessment that prepares students for the summative IPA, giving teachers the opportunity to provide specific feedback to learners on their performance and to adjust instruction as needed, prior to administering the IPA. This assessment, its differentiated versions, instructions, and single-point rubrics are on Learning Site®.
In any J’avance assessment, all students complete the same tasks; however, slightly different versions of the tasks are provided.
The labels Bleu, Blanc, and Rouge are used to identify the leveled formative assessments. The Bleu version provides additional supports for students who are currently struggling to apply the expected concepts. The Blanc version is designed for students performing at level. Finally, the Rouge version challenges advanced students with an appropriately rigorous task. Mon progrès communicatif and Mon progrès interculturel are Can-Do statements13 embedded in the activities, encouraging students to self-assess their level of performance: “I can do this consistently,“ “I can do this with help,” or “This is still a goal.”14 The Can-Do statements were developed both for the communicative and the intercultural goals so that learners can keep track of their own progress. To document their progress, learners use the online Portfolio to upload evidence of their linguistic and intercultural development. Access the Portfolio Guidelines online for details about using the Can-Do statements and the online Portfolio with students.
Understanding their current level of performance allows students to remain sensitive to their needs for either additional support or for extensions, thereby facilitating the use of tiered formative assessments.
12 The IPA was designed by ACTFL to measure learners’ knowledge and skills in simulated “real-world” situations within a cultural context that reflects the content in the thematic unit.
13 The Can-Do statements are Wayside Publishing’s alone and are aligned with the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statement Performance Indicators.
14 NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements for Use with LinguaFolio®, NCSSFL (2018). Novice Low. https://ncssfl.org, April 14, 2023.
Level-specific analytic rubrics15 are informative tools that teachers and learners can use to measure growth on the learner’s path to proficiency for the following communicative modes:
• Interpretive Reading, Listening, and Viewing
• Interpersonal Communication: Speaking and Writing
• Presentational Speaking
• Presentational Writing
Learners are encouraged to self-assess their communicative skills, intercultural growth, and use of strategies that help them progress on their path to proficiency. Teachers are encouraged to meet individually with students to provide specific feedback on their communicative skills and intercultural growth.
Teachers and learners are encouraged to apply can-do holistic rubrics for daily use and formative assessments.
• Interpretive Reading, Listening, and Viewing: daily comprehension verification and formative assessments
• Interpersonal Communication: classwork, exchange of information, messaging, participation, pair and group work
• Presentational Speaking: reporting or presenting to the class, presenting in a group, oral reflections
• Presentational Writing: reflections, exit slips, short notes, letters, summaries, descriptions, reviews, questions and answers
You can use the single-point rubric to provide detailed feedback on what students were able to complete for each Can-Do statement and which areas they could work to improve.
No matter which rubrics you choose to use, make sure that students understand how to work with them.
The summative Integrated Performance Assessment Rubrics align with the task components for the unit IPAs. The rubrics describe the level of performance for each communicative task in the three communicative modes: interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational. There are four levels of performance on each rubric, adapted from the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines.16
“Assessment Guidelines” are available in the online teacher resources on Learning Site®, with explanations of the assessment components and instructions on using the online Portfolio and the rubrics in order to attribute a score to a student’s work on an IPA.

Where do you go at school to relax and spend time with friends?

In the DROMs and in France, students in middle school and in high school have access to le foyer des élèves, an association managed by and for the students. It is a place to relax with friends or to learn something new. A group of elected students usually meets at the beginning of the school year to brainstorm ideas for le foyer such as working to get a TV, video game console, books, or indoor games, or organizing workshops, presentations, and tournaments. It is a place where students are encouraged to pick up a guitar, a paintbrush, a deck of cards, or a game controller, and enjoy themselves.

Les légumes étaient délicieux. The vegetables were delicious. You can usually recognize the imparfait by its endings: -ais -ait -aient and others. C’était is the imparfait of c’est ; il y avait is the imparfait of il y a. You can describe many things that happened in the past just by knowing these two expressions.
Contrast this new verb tense, the imparfait with the tenses you already know.
Le présent: Je mange des gaufres. I eat (am eating) waffles.
Le futur proche: Je vais manger des gaufres. I am going to eat waffles.
L’imparfait: Je mangeais des gaufres. I used to eat (was eating) waffles.
Note: The -aient ending is pronounced in the same way as -ais and -ait
2. Talking About What You Used to Do Forming the imparfait
a. To determine the stem of a verb in the imparfait, remove the final -ons from the nous form of the present tense. nous faisons faisnous aimons aimnous voulons voul-
b. The verb être does not follow this pattern. All forms of être in the imparfait begin with ét- j’étais, c’était, etc.

Unité 5 | Des conseils pour une vie saine
42 La relaxation à travers les cultures (ou « entre cultures »)
D’après l’Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS), « la santé est un état de complet bien-être (well-being) physique, mental et social, et ne consiste pas seulement en une absence de maladie ou d’infirmité ».
Vos amis et vous avez créé un club, Quipecoule, pour aider les élèves à bien se sentir. Votre but est d’organiser une séance pour présenter et échanger des techniques multiculturelles de relaxation.

Comment éviter le stress et se sentir mieux ? Certains disent qu’il faut créer avec ses mains, d’autres proposent de marcher dans la forêt ou de faire du sport. En petits groupes, faites une liste de vos idées de relaxation. Ensuite, faites une recherche du web francophone et trouvez d’autres idées de relaxation. Identifiez les techniques qui intègrent les éléments suivants
• l’environnement et la nature ; la création et les passe-temps ; l’activité physique ;

This edition of EntreCultures® includes a companion reader, Le nouvel Houdini, that is aligned to the goals and content of EntreCultures® 2. On Learning Site®, the reader appears as an additional component along with activities, a glossary, and a Teacher’s Guide with detailed teacher tips and answer keys.
Reading has been shown to have a strong impact on both vocabulary development and the acquisition of language structures. Just as young learners benefit from leveled readers to develop reading skills in their first language, these companion readers provide targeted input of the vocabulary and structures French learners need to progress toward reading authentic literature. Students benefit from stories that are both comprehensible and compelling to them. You can provide additional support by doing the following:

• Pre-teach any needed vocabulary so that the comprehension level is very high while students are reading, especially if they will be reading at home.
• Do pre- and post-reading activities to get students to interact at a deeper level with the content they are learning about in the story.
Here are some suggestions for incorporating readers to enhance student progress toward proficiency. The Teacher’s Guide on Learning Site® contains additional ideas.
• Plan to include the reader at any point in the year. The reader, Le nouvel Houdini, was chosen for its simplicity and repetition of basic structures, allowing it to be effectively integrated at almost any point throughout the year. Guide students through the book with in-class reading during the first semester or give them a chance to find success more independently toward the end of the year.
• Set aside time daily/weekly over a set period. Read a little bit each day or on a set day each week until the reader is completed. To keep students’ interest level high, read regularly and avoid long gaps between reading sessions.
• Replace other homework with daily reading. Assign the chapters to be read independently outside of class. Preview the chapter when it is assigned and follow up with comprehension tasks after reading.
EntreCultures® Second Edition components are available digitally on Learning Site® unless noted as also available in print format.
• Teacher Edition: Available in Print and Digital formats.
• Assessment Program: Includes a suite of assessments and rubrics to customize to each student’s need, from proficiency-based Formative and Summative Assessments to Alternative Objective Tests in an autograded delivery format.

This section also provides an opportunity for reading comprehension practice by allowing students to digest comprehensible French language in context.

Prénom : Éloïse
Langues parlées : français, anglais
Ville d’origine : Montréal (Canada)
Le Québec est la plus grande province du Canada. Le français est la langue officielle du Québec. La langue française est considérée comme un élément essentiel de l’héritage culturel québécois. Le drapeau du Québec s’appelle le fleurdelisé parce qu’il a quatre fleurs de lys.
La ville de Québec, la capitale de la province du Québec, a été fondée (founded) en 1608 par l’explorateur Samuel de Champlain. Cette province, comme le reste du Canada, utilise le système métrique et le dollar canadien. Elle offre un système de santé (health) accessible à tous.
Il y a beaucoup de choses à faire et à voir au Québec. La nature est très belle, avec de vastes forêts et une multitude d’animaux.




Le Québec and le Nouveau-Brunswick are the two provinces where French is an official language. Whereas le Québec has French as its official language, le Nouveau-Brunswick is the only officially bilingual province (French and English) in Canada. In addition to French and English, there are more than 50 languages spoken by the First Nations peoples. The Inuit language is Inuktitut, and Métis peoples speak many First Nations or European languages as well as several varieties of the Michif language.
For centuries, the fleur de lys was the emblem of the French monarchy. In Québec, it is a linguistic and cultural symbol that distinguishes the francophone province from the anglophone provinces of Canada.

The weather, flora, and fauna of your region may differ from those of Québec. Before 1.2, ask students to name well-known animals, outdoor activities, and local festivals in your city or state. Compare and contrast the activities on a T-Chart or other graphic organizer.
Culture
Point out in 1 that Canada enjoys great diversity. Its constitution recognizes three distinct groups of Aboriginal or Indigenous peoples: First Nations, Inuit, and Métis (mixed ancestry of European and First Nations origins). All of these peoples possess unique histories, cultural perspectives, spiritual beliefs, and languages.
Supporting Heritage Learners
French is sometimes a first language for Canadians. For others, it is an additional language learned at school. Ask heritage learners about the linguistic situation of the French language within their family or their place of origin.

The purpose of the second part of the Rencontre interculturelle is to provide students with some background information on the featured vlogger(s). Have students read about Éloïse and watch her video online. Students will continue to see Éloïse throughout the unit, which will provide points of cultural comparison and more practice with the vocabulary and grammar.

Investigate: I can identify how a francophone teen uses free time and why.

The Presentational Speaking portion of the AP® test requires students to deliver a 2-minute presentation based on a prompt in which they compare a cultural feature in their community to one from a francophone community. Réflexion interculturelle activities provide an opportunity to prepare students for this task.
Point out in 2.2 that Cégep is a public pre-university two-year college in Quebec and is comparable to a junior college in the United States. Originally an acronym for Collège d’enseignement général et professionnel, Cégep is now considered a word in itself.

Bonjour.
Je voudrais expliquer un peu plus le fonctionnement de la maison. Notre chambre est au premier étage, et les deux autres chambres sont au rez-de-chaussée avec le salon, la salle de bain, la cuisine et le bureau de mon mari, Raj.
Moi, je fais le petit déjeuner assez tôt le matin et j’ai quelques élèves de piano, donc pour les personnes qui ont besoin de silence le matin, je recommande la chambre à côté du bureau. Cette chambre est aussi un peu plus grande que l’autre.
Dans l’autre chambre, il y a beaucoup de soleil mais la connexion wifi n’est pas très bonne. Les deux chambres ont des lits pour deux personnes.
À part les deux chambres, il y a un sofa convertible dans le bureau de Raj. Nous en avons un dans le salon aussi, mais il n’y a pas de porte à fermer, bien entendu !
Avez-vous des suggestions ? Qui doit dormir dans chaque endroit ?
À bientôt,
Madame Singh

As 6 comes at the beginning of the unit, it is a low-stakes opportunity for students to engage in peer feedback. Teach students the “sandwich” method: a compliment, a constructive criticism, and another compliment. Students can write their feedback on an index card or scrap of paper and pass it anonymously to the speaker after each presentation.
In case students are not able to think of local community heroes, consult the local newspaper or city website and find a few examples. Provide a model for the type of description you expect using the adjectives from page 140 and previous learned words.
Culture
Use an online map and explore rue Saint-Paul (pictured), one of the oldest and main European streets in Montréal. It is located in Vieux Montréal, a popular tourist section of the city. In this section of the city, visitors will see place Jacques-Cartier and Notre-Dame de Bon Secours (pictured), one of the oldest churches in the city founded by Marguerite Bourgeoys, a religious sister from France who later was named Canada’s first female saint.

Mes responsabilités à la maison a

Salut, je m’appelle Kylian. Je suis le cousin d’Éloïse et j’habite à Trois-Rivières. Dans ma famille, je donne un coup de main et je participe aux tâches ménagères. Je vais vous parler de mes tâches quotidiennes, hebdomadaires et mensuelles
Mes tâches quotidiennes
Tous les jours, je dois faire le lit. Dans la cuisine, je dois mettre le couvert, débarrasser le lave-vaisselle, et donner à manger au chien.
Mes tâches hebdomadaires
Une fois par semaine, je dois laver et plier mon linge, ranger ma chambre, passer l’aspirateur et garder ma petite sœur.
Mes tâches mensuelles
Une fois par mois, je dois arroser les cactus sur mon bureau et ramasser les déchets dans le jardin. En plus, je fais du jardinage avec ma mère.

For the new vocabulary in Comment dit-on ?, be aware that some students may be experiencing housing insecurity or may be in foster care. Provide alternative options by allowing them to describe a fictional character’s or a partner’s daily activities and responsibilities.
Language
The word hebdomadaire comes from the Greek hebdomas, which means seven, referring to the number of days in a week.
While faire du baby-sitting is a common expression in France, garder les enfants is more common in Québec.

Making comparisons is an important skill for the AP® Language and Culture Exam.
Rue Couillard (pictured) is in the Vieux-Québec neighborhood of Quebec. This area was originally populated by artisans and then became known as le Quartier Latin (as in Paris) because of the number of instructors from the nearby (in the 19th century) Université Laval who lived in the area. The university is now located outside the old city. Numerous language camps for students and teacher professional development workshops are held at Laval in the summer.

I can do this with support (notes, my teacher, a classmate).
I can do this independently.

Each Zoom culture focuses on a cultural product (produit) or practice (pratique) and invites students to develop insights into underlying perspectives (perspectives) in the francophone world and in their own culture. Products are tangible and intangible items—such as books, food, laws, music, and games— required or justified by the underlying values and beliefs of a culture. Practices are patterns of social interactions or behaviors, such as greetings, holidays, events, and daily schedules. Perspectives are the values, attitudes, and ideas of a culture.
Before students read the Zoom culture selections in the unit, use the Connexions questions to have them reflect on this product or practice in their own culture. Then have them read the information in the section before responding to the Perspectives questions. To minimize the use of English during class, have students read silently and respond for homework. Students should complete both the Connexions and Perspectives questions in the discussion forum, as they will use English for their responses.

Which types of chores do you do at home? Are the chores that you are expected to do similar to or different from those of family members of different ages?
The sharing of household tâches by family members is more equal in Canada than in many other countries. While tâches ménagères used to be divided by gender, over the last 40 years, the sharing of household tasks in families has become more equal.
In general, Canadians see chores as important in influencing development. Two thirds of Canadians report a belief that doing work around the house helps children build independence and work well with others. About half of Canadian families with children report a clear division of responsibilities in the home, with parents and enfants helping with chores. About a quarter of Canadian families try to do housework together, and a fifth of households report parents doing all the chores themselves. For many Canadians, small tasks like doing laundry or preparing meals are acts of care that contribute to a positive family environment.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of sharing chores in a home and in a society? What can you learn from doing chores for and with older adults?
What role do culture, gender, and age play in influencing the types of chores that people choose to do or are expected to do? What are your considerations (or your parents’ considerations) when you are choosing or being assigned chores at home? Answer the questions in the discussion forum.

Investigate: I can identify some ways that culture, gender, and age affect the types of chores people do.
(Research) Use the search terms “Partage des tâches domestiques & Canada” to find an infographic related to the Zoom culture.

Ask the students to search for similar infographics, videos, or print materials from different francophone cultures. Compare and contrast the practices and perspectives of two-three cultures via either a short writing task or an oral summary.

Students will write their observations on the graphic organizer, and then they will work with a partner to see if they can come up with additional observations. Students may consult the Synthèse : Grammaire at the end of the unit to confirm their hypotheses. Encourage students to make linguistic comparisons to their home languages.

Verbs pouvoir, vouloir, choisir,
Il faut ranger la maison avant la fête. Tu peux m’aider avec les tâches ménagères ? Tes amis et toi, vous pouvez donner un coup de main ?
Super ! Merci. Je ne veux pas ranger la chambre, mais mes parents veulent avoir une maison organisée et bien rangée. Mon frère ne veut jamais ramasser les déchets. Tu veux ramasser les déchets ?

C’est vrai ? Vous choisissez vos tâches ménagères à la maison ?
15 Découvertes b v d

Oui, bien sûr ! Mes amis peuvent aider aussi. Par exemple, mon ami Rashid peut laver les tables, et je peux passer l’aspirateur. Nous pouvons tous participer. Avec ta famille, vous voulez faire quelles tâches ?
Oui, je choisis souvent de ramasser les déchets chez moi. Mon frère et moi, nous choisissons nos tâches.
Oui. Mon frère finit ses tâches rapidement. Mes parents, ils finissent de ranger la maison rapidement aussi. Moi, je finis mes tâches ménagères lentement. Et vous, vous finissez vos tâches rapidement ?
Reflect on what you observe and respond to the following questions.
1. Look at all of the words in bold in the conversation above. Sort the words in bold into categories that make sense to you.

2. Explain to a partner how you decided to group the words in bold.
3. What do you observe about the il/elle/on forms of the verbs? How is it similar to or different from the je and tu forms?
4. What do you observe about the je and tu forms of the verbs?
5. Share your observations with a partenaire or with your teacher. What else do you notice together? Can you add to your observations?
Remind all students that sometimes verb forms sound the same in the je, tu, and il/elle/on forms, but they may be spelled differently. Examples include veux/veut and choisis/choisit.
The objective of this Découvrons section is not to introduce every present tense form of all -ir verbs. Rather, the two goals are (a) for students to notice patterns that occur in verbs as a way to predict the forms of verbs that they will encounter in the future, and (b) to be able to work specifically with the verbs vouloir, pouvoir, choisir, and finir, all used naturally in the communicative tasks in this unit.
Assign the Découvrons 1 video for practice online.
If students need to review the singular forms of these verbs, refer them to Unité 4 of EntreCultures® 1 Unité 4 or to the Synthèse : Grammaire of this unit.

You may want to call students’ attention to some of the faux amis in the Comment dit-on ? section: travailler/travailleur (not to be confused with each other or with voyager/voyageur), bosser, and chef. While chef is not a true faux ami, you should give a few examples of how it is used outside of the kitchen. Students may find it interesting that the word chef in old French meant head, as a person in charge of something.
A tip to help students remember the meaning of réaliser is to have them apply the Stratégies from Unité 2: The root of réaliser is réel, meaning to make something a reality or to make it really happen.

Before 19, you may want to review adjective agreement. There are several songs that explain the rules for adjective agreement. If you have not used one in the past, ask a colleague or in an online French teacher group for suggestions. Spanish adjectives have fewer adjective endings, so Heritage Spanish Speakers may have questions about the French rules. See the Instructional Strategy Toolkit for ideas on how to co-create a visual handout or wall chart for the students to consult. Adjective agreement takes multiple exposures and interactions with resources to confidently use the rules with accuracy.

Ask students to brainstorm ways that they can serve the specific needs of their community with the time and skills they possess.
Before defining bénévole ask the students to brainstorm on the origin and derivation of the word. Bene in italian means good and vole is related to volition: wanting to do good. Ask the students how this word aligns with their current activities and future interests. Are there other ways that they feel connected to this word?

23.1 Anticipez la prononciation b
How do we pronounce ll in French?
You already know that ll in French words can be pronounced either as an l sound, as in elle or ville, or as a y sound, as in travailler. When we see a word with ll, how do we know whether to pronounce it as an l sound or as a y sound?
Read the transcription of a radio announcement for a volunteer opportunity and predict the following:
1. the words containing ll pronounced as an l sound; and 2. the words containing ll pronounced as a y sound.

Listen to recording again and do the activities.
1. Bearing in mind what you have observed, practice reading the transcript aloud.
2. When you are ready, record yourself reading the transcript.
The main point for students to notice in 23 is how ll is pronounced based on the vowels that precede it. You may want to begin by showing some examples of words containing ll that students already know (aller, travailler).
Students will discover that the vowel i is often a trigger for the following ll to be pronounced as Y, but point out some of the notable exceptions to this rule: ville, mille, tranquille
Use the following tongue twister (virelangue) for students to practice the very light and forward French l that is pronounced as l: Lulu lit la lettre lue à Lili et Lola alla à Lille où Lala lie le lilas .

For 24.2, keep in mind that students may not know someone who volunteers. Provide examples of volunteer opportunities in your school or city or ask students to think of the qualities that they would want a volunteer to have.
While the geographical focus of this unit is Québec, it should be noted that Canada is one of the major destinations of Haitian immigrants because of the large Haitian communities in the Frenchspeaking provinces. Canada also provides extensive economic and humanitarian support to Haiti.

In this Découvrons section, note that American English speakers often struggle to differentiate between which and what. Provide a simple rule that quel is always followed by a noun.
For 26, students who know Spanish should note that there are four forms of which in French because they agree in both gender and number, whereas in Spanish there are only two forms (cuál and cuáles), which agree in number only.

Students will write their observations on the graphic organizer, and then they will work with a partner to see if they can come up with additional observations. Students may consult the Synthèse : Grammaire at the end of the unit to confirm their hypotheses. Encourage students to make linguistic comparisons to their home languages.

Each Zoom culture focuses on a cultural product (produit) or practice (pratique) and invites students to develop insights into underlying perspectives (perspectives) in the francophone world and in their own culture. Products are tangible and intangible items—such as books, food, laws, music, and games— required or justified by the underlying values and beliefs of a culture. Practices are patterns of social interactions or behaviors, such as greetings, holidays, events, and daily schedules. Perspectives are the values, attitudes, and ideas of a culture. Before students read the Zoom culture selections in the unit, use the Connexions questions to have them reflect on this product or practice in their own culture. Then have them read the information in the section before responding to the Perspectives questions. To minimize the use of English during class, have students read silently and respond for homework. Students should complete both the Connexions and Perspectives questions in the discussion forum, as they will use English for their responses.

29.1
Do you or people you know volunteer in your community? What kinds of things do people do as volunteers? Why do they decide to volunteer?
On the whole, Canada has a strong tradition of community involvement and volunteerism, as it is estimated that 79 percent of Canadians age 15 and older participate in volunteerism. Each year, les bénévoles dedicate about five billion hours to their volunteer activities. What motivates Canadians to volunteer? Their top reasons differ across generations. For example, members of iGen (also known as Generation Z, born between 1996 and 2012) want to improve their job opportunities, while other generations cite contributing to the well-being of the community and spiritual motivations as their primary motivation.
A variety of volunteer opportunities is available to Canadians. From restoring historic buildings and public spaces to fundraising to provide help directly to specific populations such as senior citizens, refugees, or children, whatever your interest, you can find a volunteer opportunity in Canada.



29.2 Perspectives o d



Look at the graph from Statistique Canada to see some of the ways in which Canadians volunteer their time. How many can you identify?
The ability to work with graphs, charts, and infographics is critical to success on AP® Cultural Comparisons. Students should be familiar with the terminology and be able to express what they see in the infographic in the Zoom culture
See the Instructional Strategies Toolkit for a graphic organizer to extend 29.1. For each organization type in the infographic, what personality types and what skills would fit the volunteer opportunities? Ask the students to create a profile of someone who would best connect with and support the organization. Alternatively, you could spotlight students in your class and school based on their skills and personalities. As suggested on page 169, ask the students to look up francophone volunteer organizations and connect students to the organizations based on their profiles.

32.1 Lisez les profils b
Lisez les profils de bénévoles potentiels, puis associez un projet de l’appli Bénévol@ à chaque personne.





1. Nicolas : Moi, j’ai deux chiens et un chat à la maison. Je leur donne à manger tous les jours !
2. Mia : Je suis un vrai chef. J’aime gérer des groupes de personnes et organiser des projets. Je préfère être active (pas rester assise devant un ordinateur !).
3. Yaël : Ce que j’aime, c’est arroser les plantes chez moi le matin. Je cherche un projet de bénévolat où je peux contribuer à la communauté. Je suis travailleur !
4. Norha : Garder des enfants, c’est un plaisir pour moi ! J’aime bien les réconforter quand ils sont tristes et j’aime aussi proposer des jeux.
5. Zacharie : Je voudrais être bénévole, mais j’ai beaucoup d’allergies (aux animaux, aux plantes… à beaucoup de choses !). Je suis un peu timide aussi, alors je cherche un projet de bénévolat où je peux être calme et accueillir quelqu’un qui a besoin d’aide.
Two of the responses in 32.1 are intentionally ambiguous (Mia and Zacharie). This will require students to use details from the text to justify their answers. Encourage this skill by asking Pourquoi ? as you circulate and listen to student conversations.
In 32.1, use the photo of a man moving his hands across the pages of a book to introduce your students to Braille. French educator Louis Braille lost his sight at the age of three as a result of an injury. He went on to make significant contributions in the field of special education by developing the language now internationally known as Braille, a system of raised dots that correspond to the alphabet, punctuation, and symbols.
The Braille language was extended from alphabet, punctuation, and symbols to include musical notation and mathematical symbols.

Forms of the adjective nouveau are placed before the noun they describe. un nouveau projet (m. s.)
un nouvel ordinateur (m. s. starting with a vowel sound) de nouveaux amis (m. pl.)
une nouvelle tâche (f. s.) de nouvelles idées (f. pl.)
Language
The infinitive soutenir is presented lexically so that students can use it with expressions such as c’est important de and je peux. Students should not be expected to produce the irregular present-tense forms of soutenir.
Although the use of de (rather than des) before an adjectif antéposé is shown in the Détail grammatical, students should not be expected to master it at this stage.

What are the reasons people get involved in volunteerism in your community? Have you ever formed a friendship through volunteering?
In Canada, volunteering is a popular activity for people from a variety of backgrounds. Immigrants and refugees are two groups of people in Canada who can benefit in a special way by becoming volunteers. Through volunteering, immigrants may find opportunities to learn about the culture of the country where they live, experience the work culture of the country, and make connections with friends and future colleagues. Le bénévolat is a way for people of any background to have a sense of accomplishment and belonging in their community.
Le réseautage (networking) is an important skill that can be developed by becoming a volunteer. Forming connections with other volunteers, community leaders, and business people can lead to improved job opportunities. Apart from helping people find work, le bénévolat can help people find others who have similar interests and motivations.

You may want to note in the Détail linguistique that in Quebec, the expression to have a green thumb is as in English: avoir le pouce vert.
Challenge
As an extension activity for these idiomatic expressions in the Détail linguistique, have students draw side-by-side definitions of (a) the literal meaning of the idiom and (b) the figurative meaning of the idiom (or the English-language equivalent).
IB Strategies
In 36.1 have students identify the two types of texts presented here (texte professionnel : lettre de motivation and textes professionnels : propositions) and explain their reasoning. As a way to remind students of the categories, you could ask: Pourquoi ce n’est pas un texte personnel ? or Pourquoi ce n’est pas un texte des médias de masse ? Qui est le public visé ?. Have students make connections between acquiring and experiencing volunteer positions such as those mentioned in the ads and the development of their IB learner attributes (e.g., risk-taking and caring).

Découvrons
The Découvrons segments in EntreCultures® provide clear examples of language used in context, with targeted structures in boldface type, helping students focus on form. Instead of presenting grammar rules, the segment invites students to observe, discover, and reflect on form in context.
Students will write their observations on the graphic organizer, and then they will work with a partner to see if they can come up with additional observations. Students may consult the Synthèse : Grammaire at the end of the unit to confirm their hypotheses. Encourage students to make linguistic comparisons to their home languages.
This Découvrons section guides students to discover the relative pronouns qui, que, and où in context. Assign the Structures en avant video for practice online.
Resources
Audio
Découvrons videos and practice activities are available online throughout the series to support the explanation and understanding of newly presented grammar points. Students can view them at home and absorb grammatical patterns and structures at their own pace. Alternatively, you may wish to use these videos in class to support your own teaching.

Ça, c’est le refuge pour animaux où mes amis font du bénévolat.

Reflect on what you observe and respond to the following questions.
1. What is the purpose of où, qui, and que in these examples?



2. Notice which phrases or kinds of words come before and after où, qui, and que. avant le mot où : après le mot où : conclusion : avant le mot qui : après le mot qui : conclusion : avant le mot que : après le mot que : conclusion :
3. Share your observations with a partner. What else do you notice together? What else can you add to your observations?
4. Test your theory! Which word would you use in the blank in each of the following examples?
a. C’est ma mère encourage ma sœur à devenir bénévoles.
b. C’est le moment je suis devenu bénévole.
c. Il y a une affiche je vois tous les jours à mon école. C’est pourquoi je suis bénévole !

For 37, students may need a cue to remember to contract que with il, elle, on, ils, elles, and other words starting with a vowel.
Students who speak Spanish may find it useful to compare the French relative pronouns in 37 to the Spanish equivalents: quien, que, donde. A critical difference to note is that in French, both qui and que can represent people or things, whereas in Spanish que can refer to people or things, but quien can refer only to people.

Verbs vouloir, pouvoir, choisir,
When talking about volunteering, it is useful to express what people want to do, what they can do, what they choose to do, and what they are finishing. Here are the present-tense forms of the verbs vouloir, pouvoir, choisir, and finir
vouloir pouvoir
je veux nous voulons je peux nous pouvons tu veux vous voulez tu peux vous pouvez
il/elle/on veut ils/elles veulent il/elle/on peut ils/elles peuvent choisir finir
je choisis nous choisissons je finis nous finissons tu choisis vous choisissez tu finis vous finissez
il/elle/on choisit ils/elles choisissent il/elle/on finit ils/elles finissent
Although vouloir, pouvoir, choisir, and finir have different endings from those of the -er verbs you have already seen, they still have a few recognizable patterns:
1. The je and tu forms of each verb are identical to each other, but the il/elle/on form is different. It is also common that verbs that end in -x or -s in the je and tu forms change to a -t ending in the il/elle/on form.
2. Forms of the verb vouloir start with veu- or voul-, and forms of the verb pouvoirstart with peu- or pouv-.
3. Choisir and finir have longer endings: -issons, -issez, and -issent
Language
Remind the students of the other verb forms of these -ir verbs that they have seen: Je voudrais, Je pourrais, Je vais choisir, J’ai fini, etc.
Asking Questions with quel and qu’est-ce que
When asking an open-ended what question, use qu’est-ce que:
Qu’est-ce que tu préfères ?
Qu’est-ce que nous faisons après l’école ?
When asking about a specific kind of noun, use a form of quel followed by the noun.
masculin féminin
singulier
pluriel
Quel projet est-ce que tu choisis ?
Quels bénévoles vont au refuge ?
Quelle tâche est-ce que tu préfères ?
Quelles idées est-ce que tu vas lancer ?
Relative Pronouns qui, que, and où
The words qui, que, and où are connectors that can be used to create longer, more complex sentences. They allow you to give more information about a person, place, or thing mentioned earlier in the same sentence. You may recognize the words qui and où as question words.
Use où when you want to give more information about a place or time in the same sentence.
C’est l’hôpital où je fais du bénévolat.
C’est l’heure où nous commençons à travailler.
Use qui when the following word is a verb.
C’est un bénévole qui est compréhensif.
C’est un organisme qui aide les personnes âgées.
Use que when the word that comes next is a subject
C’est une tâche que monsieur Gassama fait bien.
C’est un projet qu’elles lancent au mois de décembre.
Notice that où in the second example does not mean where but when
Notice that qui in the second example does not mean who; it means that
Notice that que becomes qu’ before a vowel sound.
As an enrichment activity for relative pronouns, create a set of sentence building strip cards that will allow students to choose a logical pronoun to connect the sentences. Use the Instructional Strategy of color coding the vocabulary for nouns, verbs, adjectives, and relative pronouns to reinforce the grammatical function of the words.
The grammar point in Découvrons of Communiquons 2 can be challenging for English speakers who do not understand the difference between the interrogatives what and which in their native language. Point out to students that which is used for a question that requires a choice between a number of items.

Invite the students to organize the vocabulary lists into segments that best fit their learning styles or review preferences. Provide alternative review options for students who demonstrate anxiety or confusion with how the vocabulary is presented in whole. By offering strategies to compartmentalize and chunk vocabulary, students will develop more confidence in their acquisition.

• How can community members work together to improve their quality of life?
• What motivates people from different cultures to volunteer?

Your French teacher is organizing a class trip to Montreal. Your class has decided that since volunteerism is so important to the Québécois, the trip will include community service. After seeing some of the sites of the city, you will pair up with another classmate to spend part of your trip serving the communities of Montreal. Once you have decided, you will each need to complete the formulaire pour devenir bénévole.
Before you begin, refer to the J’y arrive rubric to familiarize yourself with the evaluation criteria.
Choisir l’offre bénévole idéale b
Read postings about two volunteer opportunities in Montreal and answer the questions.


On va faire du bénévolat, mais où ? s
You and a classmate are planning to participate together in one of the two volunteer opportunities. Discuss which opportunity to choose, giving reasons for your preference. Give a conclusion before you end your conversation.
