What
is FSL? It stands for French as a Second
Language which would be FLS in French -
Français Langue Seconde.
However, depending on where you live, it may also
be called Core French, French as a Foreign
Language (FFL) or Français Langue
Étrangère (FLE).
Who
am I? Well, my name is actually Pierre Renaud and
I have been a French teacher since 1990. A few people
asked me why I use M. Renaud instead of P. Renaud
in the title. As most of you know, M. stands for
Monsieur.
I
first created "FSL Activities with M. Renaud"
in 1996 when I was teaching at Connaught P.S. in
Ottawa, Canada. It started as a classroom activity
that grew much bigger over the years. In 2001, I
moved to Victoria (British Columbia) where I taught
French immersion and technology
at École
Margaret Jenkins School. I moved to Ottawa in
2008 where currently teach a grade 3/4 class at
Manordale
Public School. I hope to continue providing
students, parents and educators with a wide variety
of resources that will help learn and teach French.
