The French Intermediate B course encourages participants to narrate an experience, describe past and future events with a chronology by applying time indicators, present a place with its facilities, architecture, economy, and history, and draw a portrait of famous characters.
Participants will build short narratives with greater confidence and relate events. They will narrate and give their opinion about how things used to be, contribute to a book and a film review, plan activities, and discuss past innovations. They will apply the present tense, progressively three past tenses, make suppositions and suggestions, and plan for the future. Participants will also extend their use of numbers to thousands and millions and apply proportions and percentages.
