We know we're a few days late on this, but we've FINALLY posted the 5 Finalists for our Best Website contest on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TeacherWebInc. You have from now until midnight next Wednesday, May 22nd, to vote on your favorite. The winner will receive a free year of TeacherWeb, and the 4 runners-up will get $15 Starbucks giftcards, so vote wisely! The Finalists' websites are posted in their own photo album on our Facebook page, so check those out first, visit the sites, click around, then come back and vote via our poll.

Thanks for your participation - we were amazed by all the entries and fantastic websites that we got to review, and if you didn't end up in the Top 5, know that it's because there are so many stellar educators out there using our products to reach their students and families that it was almost impossible for us to choose.

Thanks again,
The folks at TeacherWeb

<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>La Description du Cours: </strong>Bienvenue &#224; la classe de fran&#231;ais! <br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Throughout the semester, you will be exposed to the spoken language and will be expected to use it in the classroom.&nbsp; I will maintain high standards and my expectations regarding your performance will match those.&nbsp; Take advantage of this opportunity.&nbsp; You will be able to communicate more efficiently in French if you take notes, follow directions, <strong>study and practice using your French outside of the classroom on a regular basis.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Les Objectifs du Cours</span>:<br />
</strong>This year you will be able to:<br />
-Refine your listening comprehension skills.<br />
-Communicate orally, incorporating increasingly more complex grammatical structures, vocabulary and&nbsp;idiomatic expressions.<br />
-Express yourselves in writing in French using descriptive and efficient vocabulary and grammar.<br />
-Read in French.&nbsp; For the higher levels, you will read and discuss French literature.<br />
<br />
</span></span></div>
<div><strong style="font-size: 14pt;">Les Mat&#233;riels: Supplies for Class</strong>:&nbsp; A blue or black pen, one red pen, textbook, workbook and French binder with plenty of loose-leaf paper are required <u>everyday.</u>&nbsp; The binders and workbooks will be collected and graded.&nbsp; No other subjects are to be in your French binder.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Absence</strong></span>:</strong>&nbsp; Students are responsible for all class work, notes, homework, quizzes and tests missed during an absence.&nbsp; Each student must choose 2 RESPONSIBLE study partners who will be able to inform him/her of class work missed.&nbsp; Homework assignments are on this website under <strong>DEVOIRS</strong>.</div>
<div>Any work missed must be made up when the student returns unless the parent/guardian has written a short note explaining why the student was unable to complete the assignment.&nbsp; In cases of severe illness, more time (5 days) is given for students to make up the work missed.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Devoirs/Homework</strong></span>:&nbsp;&nbsp; </strong>Each day there will be an oral, written and/or study assignment.&nbsp; It will be written on the white board in class and on this website.&nbsp; The assignments should be written down each day or copied and pasted from this website under DEVOIRS.&nbsp; We will always check for homework completion and go over the written assignments.&nbsp; Sometimes the homework will be collected and graded.&nbsp; Those who have not done their daily assignments will receive a zero.&nbsp; Each zero equals two points off your grade average.&nbsp; One point off will be taken for work half completed.&nbsp; The written assignments for level one and two are very short.&nbsp; Usually they can be completed within 10 minutes.&nbsp; All workbooks assignments should be done with the textbook OPEN to check for accuracy.&nbsp; Most of the time you spend at home preparing for French class will be spent studying the vocabulary and grammar.&nbsp; </div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong style="font-size: 14pt;">Participation and Marking System</strong>:&nbsp; Quizzes: 30%, Quests: 30%, Tests: 20% and Oral Participation/Homework: 20%.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;If students are told to study, they should expect a quiz the next day.&nbsp; STUDENTS ARE QUIZZED OFTEN.&nbsp; <strong>SPECIAL OFFER:</strong>&nbsp; Students who do not do well on a <strong><u>quiz </u></strong>have an opportunity to retake the quiz within three school days&nbsp;and have the two grades <strong>averaged.</strong>&nbsp; The retake may only be taken once per quiz.&nbsp; The retake is not the exact copy of the original, but the subject matter is the same.&nbsp; No one is permitted to retake a quest or test.&nbsp; There will be one major project per quarter.&nbsp; No project will be accepted late!&nbsp; <strong>ORAL PARTICIPATION grades are given frequently.&nbsp; </strong>The more a student participates, the better his/her oral participation grade will be.&nbsp; Students off task during the class lose participation points.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>I will treat everyone with courtesy and respect.&nbsp; </div>
<div>I will come to school prepared for learning.</div>
<div>I will act responsibly and accept the consequences for my actions.</div>
<div>I will treat personal and school property with respect.</div>

<div><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div>
<div><strong>Remember it IS possible to learn a foreign language and enjoy the class.&nbsp; The key to success is to keep up with the work from day one.&nbsp; That takes a special commitment.</strong></div>
