French and Spanish Online Courses

HCOS French and Spanish online courses are designed to help students develop their second language communication skills and knowledge while exploring diverse opportunities and interacting with the world around them. Each course is broken down into three units each spanning 10 weeks and covering a variety of curricular themes and learning activities. Starting at Grade 7, students will read a simple novel in either French or Spanish. These books are designed for second language learners and contain repetitive vocabulary and sentence structure to help students build their confidence in reading and communicating in another language.

Throughout the courses, students will have the opportunity to explore and derive meaning from a variety of texts, recognize connections between language and culture, and develop a deeper understanding of vocabulary and sentence structures for communication in past, present, and future time frames. Students will have the opportunity to practice their second language skills when meeting 1:1 with their teacher at the end of each unit.
