How to Assess French as a Second Language
Assessing French can be difficult if you're an upper elementary school teacher. It can be especially challenging for teachers who aren’t feeling confident with their own French skills. Assessing French is the same as assessing many other subjects taught in school, but the degree of progress can vary greatly between students. We put together a blog post about how we assess French in our classroom.
