SoCaliLover Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Does anyone have any insight, suggestions, etc., on how French levels translate to high school classes, including AP? Kiddo is starting high school next year, was in a bilingual environment for years but lost some of his French when we left. Since then, he has taken weekly classes with our local Alliance Francais and is currently in an advanced class for preparation for the DELF for level B1 (which he won't take until next year at the earliest as he just transferred into that class but that is about his level). Just wondering if anyone would have any insight or suggestions at what level he would go into. I am sure they will test but he doesn't always test well. He is much stronger in speaking then reading and writing but I have no idea what they do in high school anymore. Just wondering what we should be looking at. PS regardless of his placement, he will stay in the AF classes, they are taught by native French speakers and he enjoys the classes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8filltheheart Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 THis is what I found, "DELF B1 corresponds to the lower intermediate level of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages)." I think the AP exam is geared toward the intermediate level. I don't know what yr this is from, but you might find helpful: THEME 1: Révision A-F (lcps.org) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arctic Bunny Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 The government of Canada website has a self-assessment, I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
