Description

This course provides opportunities for students to communicate and interact in French with increasing independence, with a focus on the outdoors.

They will also enhance their understanding and appreciation of diverse French-speaking communities, and will develop skills necessary for lifelong language learning. Students develop their fluency in French as they learn to pitch tents, build fires, paddle, identify edible plants, imitate bird calls, and much more. The program starts online building some of the core language skills, and then spends the next three weeks in person, on the Lakefield campus and water, and builds toward an extended camping expedition to an Ontario wilderness park.
