Throughout my years I have taught every French course offered at Wissahickon High School. I taught French 2 and 3 Honors for 6 years with the 2005-2006 school year being my last year teaching those classes. I taught the French 1 course for only 2 years, about 7 years ago. My technology integration into those courses when I taught them is outlined below.

French 3 Honors

• Video Projects:
  • Un Rendez-vous (A Date)
