We will be using the text //Bien Dit 1// as our main resource, so largely we will try to finish the following topics this year (with its connection to the above chart in parentheses):

Greetings/Friends (Relationships) Likes/Dislikes (Media, Sport, Personal Details) Family (Relationships, Personal Details) Education/School(Daily Routines) Free Time/Entertainment (Daily Routines) Food (Food and Drink) Shopping (Shopping) Around the House (Daily Routine)

(IF you are dedicated and we go fast, we'll finish two more)

Travel within the city (Transport, Neighbourhood, Town and Services) Vacations (Holidays, Global Issues

We will NOT always neatly follow the order of the chapters, note, but will mix-and-match as real-life communication would suggest/require and as the IB topics suggest.
