Enseignez-Vous FRANÇAIS? Voici 21 Places Pour Trouver des Ressources

When I attended elementary school in New York City, I was placed in French classes in 4th grade. Didn't have a choice. Some of us went to Spanish class and some went to French. So began my 8 years of study, which ended in 11th grade, when it became too hard and I just gave up. Today, as a media specialist teaching in a 7-12 public school with a large Hispanic population, the subject of French was recently dropped from our curriculum. As I work to complete the World Languages page on this blog, (Spanish and Italian are done) here are my choices for the best sites for teaching French.
