Madame Thomas' French Lessons
About Ah Bon ?
Aimed at beginning-level students, Ah Bon ? offers a modern approach to French instruction, using technology (Web 2.0) and flash cards as the core medium of language instruction. Instead of English-to-French translation, Ah Bon ? uses image-to-French language acquisition so that students achieve a more natural, native-like proficiency.
This proficiency gives learners the confidence and comfort level to go a step beyond the vocabulary, and experience the language through meaningful and realistic activities for optimal language acquisition at the beginning level. Topics covered:
- Alphabet
- Roll Call
- Numbers
- School Supplies
- School Commands
- Francophones
- Countries of Europe
- Nationalities
- Greetings
- Toi et Moi
- Hair, Eyes and Size
- Personality
- Family
- Weather
- Leisure and Opinions
- Birthdays
- Clothing
- Directions, Places, Time and Café
