Rendez-Vous: An Invitation to French

by Judith A. Muyskeds, Alice C. Omaggio Hadley, Évelyne Amon, et al.

This is a first-year French text designed to promote efficiency in the four skills - reading, writing, listening and speaking - as well as French culture. It focuses on learning to carry out everyday tasks in French and to become acquainted with French culture. The text uses a communicative approach where language is taught in culturally appropriate contexts. It emphasizes vocabulary before grammar, grammar within a cultural context and French as it is spoken in authentic, everyday situations. Exercises and activities have been updated throughout the text, five cultural spreads present the countries of French-speaking Europe and thematic chapters give continuity to the lesson.
