Overview

Aligned with Florida standards, EntreCultures 2nd Edition empowers students to communicate confidently while supporting teachers with tools to lead impactful lessons. Designed by experienced French educators and professional native speakers, this four-level series teaches through the lens of interculturality, offering an unparalleled approach to language learning that’s unlike anything else.

EntreCultures 2nd Edition, Level 2

EntreCultures aims to prepare learners to communicate, explore, and connect across cultures. Level 2 of the four-book series uses the same cultural, proficiency-based approach as Level 1 to introduce new vocabulary and structures in context that take learners beyond the basics of the French language, recycling previously learned content to strengthen their communicative skills. Learners continue to engage and interact with the French-speaking world and make comparisons between francophone communities and their own.
