FRENCH IMMERSION AT SASKATOON PUBLIC SCHOOLS French Immersion is a program designed for students whose first language is not French. The program uses French as the primary language of instruction and communication in the school setting to enable students to acquire functional language skills. The goals of Saskatoon Public Schools’ French Immersion program are to: • offer a comprehensive French education allowing for the personal development of students, and • increase French language learning competence while also developing students’ English skills. The aim of the French Immersion program is for students to communicate effectively in Canada’s two official languages. Upon completing the program, students are able to:

TIPS FOR PARENTS

Parents do not need to speak French in order to enroll their children in French Immersion. Most parents have little or no French language skills. While teachers foster students’ language learning at school, parents can also support their child’s learning at home: • encourage your child throughout their learning journey, especially during the initial fall term when students are learning the basics of a new language, • engage your child with meaningful language opportunities at home by reading, viewing and listening to materials in French, and • recognize your child’s accomplishments to build their confidence for tackling new challenges.

• pursue post-secondary education/training in both French and English, • pursue employment in French and English, and • possess an understanding of global perspectives on cultures and peoples, including their own. The approximate percentage of instruction in French through K-12 French Immersion is as follows: • 100%—Kindergarten to Grade 1

• 75%—Grade 2 to 8 • 50%—Grade 9 to 12

Une chance pour apprendre une deuxième langue peut ouvrir beaucoup de portes pour des emplois et les expériences pour le futur. A chance to learn a second language can open many job opportunities and chances to be a part of future experiences. JAE

K-8 ELEMENTARY FRENCH IMMERSION Saskatoon Public Schools offers a Kindergarten to Grade 8 elementary French Immersion program. French Immersion students learn French and English and follow provincial curricula. Students generally enter the program in Kindergarten or Grade 1. The language of instruction is primarily French in Kindergarten to Grade 2. Utilizing the new provincial curricula for early learners, our French Immersion program maintains a strong focus on student identity and language development while fostering students’ achievement in multiple subjects. The English Language Arts program is not formally introduced until Grade 3.

• École Alvin Buckwold School • École College Park School • École Forest Grove School • École Lakeview School • École River Heights School • École Victoria School Saskatoon Public Schools has one elementary school, École Henry Kelsey, that offers a single-track French Immersion program.

In Grades 3-8, students apply their literacy and language skills to support and further their learning. Once students have learned to read in French, they apply this skill as they continue to explore the language and build vocabulary, communicate orally with purpose and write to explain their thoughts and learning. The ability to speak, read and write is applied in all subject areas and enables students to continue to learn the French language in the context of curricular subjects. Saskatoon Public Schools has six dual-track elementary schools offering parallel English and French programs. The program schools are:

“J’aime le français parce que je peux parler avec ma grand-mère.” “J’aime le français parce que c’est chouette et amusant.” “I like French because I can speak French with my grandma.” “I like French because it is cool and fun.” NATHANIEL

LFI LATE FRENCH IMMERSION Saskatoon Public Schools is proud to offer Saskatoon’s only Late French Immersion program at: • École Alvin Buckwold School • École Forest Grove School • École Henry Kelsey Late French Immersion allows students to begin immersive second language study at a later age. Students enter the program in Grade 6 and will graduate with a bilingual diploma upon completing Grade 12. Students in Late French Immersion have a unique opportunity. Students in Grade 6 are fully immersed and learn the foundations of the French language using their established thinking skills. Often, they are learning language equivalents to begin to express themselves in French. Later in Grade 6,

students no longer think in equivalents but begin to think in French once they have acquired a sufficient language base. Afterwards, they continue to explore the language, build vocabulary, communicate orally with purpose, and write to explain their thoughts and learning. The ability to speak, read, and write in French is applied in all subject areas and enables students to continue to learn the French language in multiple subjects. All subject areas are taught in French except for English Language Arts. In Grade 8, the elementary and Late French Immersion students join together to form one cohesive class. At the end of Grade 8, all students are prepared to move forward with their French language studies at the collegiate level.

Le français est très épic et bénéfique! #français #immersion French is the best thing that ever happened to me! I’m so glad I went in it! #French #awesome CHELSEA

Le programme d’immersion tardive est génial et je pense que tout le monde devrait le considérer. J’ai décidé de m’inscrire parce que je cherchais un défi et aussi à cause de toutes les opportunités que j’aurai. À l’avenir, j’espère utiliser mon français pour travailler et voyager. Late French Immersion is a great program that everybody should consider. I decided to join because I wanted a challenge and also because of the opportunities it will give me. In the future I hope to travel and work abroad in French. BRYNJA

J’aime être dans la programme d’immersion française parce-que c’est une très belle langue. J’aime toutes les choses françaises, pas seulement la langue mais la culture aussi. I love being in the French Immersion program because it is a beautiful language. I love everything about French, not only the language but the culture as well.

Posséder un langage commun est sans aucun doute le lien le plus fort avec une autre culture et nous permet d’ouvrir de nombreuses portes. Grâce en partie à ma maîtrise du français, on m’a proposé une mission internationale en 2012, à Genève, en Suisse, ce qui m’a permis d’explorer de nouvelles possibilités dans ma carrière. A common language is undoubtedly the strongest bridge to another culture, and holds the power to open many doors. Due in part to my fluency in French, I was offered an international assignment in Geneva, Switzerland in 2012, which has allowed me to explore new possibilities in my career.
