(c)

Consistently apply language learning strategies to support the interpretation of oral and written text, such as:

  • using supplementary information (e.g., research prior to viewing, subtitles, glossaries, graphics) to make meaning;
  • examining key words and context clues;
  • identifying cognates in French (e.g., chante – chanteuse) or from another language (e.g., dance – danse) to decipher words; and,

(j)

Consistently apply language learning strategies to support the production of oral and written text, such as:

  • taking risks using prior knowledge, etymology and cognates to express oneself in French; and,
  • using physical and auditory cues (e.g., facial expressions, gestures, laughter, tone, volume) to convey meaning.
(k) Evaluate own oral or written production and provide suggestions for improvement.
(l) Reflect on personal French speaking or writing process.
(m) Use the French language independently.
