"Route Nationale" is a differentiated and integrated approach to teaching and learning French for National Curriculum Key Stages 3 and 4 and the Standard Grade examinations. It provides authentic materials and a wide choice of valid activities whilst understanding the students' needs for a sense of enjoyment and motivation. Students are encouraged to take an active part in their learning and to develop their ability to work collaboratively, as well as independently. The teacher is supported with detailed notes, a wealth of ideas, solutions to activities, guidance on maximizing the use of the target language and a comprehensive range of integrated material.
Key factors which make the series different: provides a stimulating language-learning experience for students of all ability levels; develops students' ability to use French effectively for the purpose of practical communication, both within and outside the classroom; develops knowledge, understanding and a positive attitude towards speakers of French throughout the world; establishes an awareness of the language-learning process and thereby facilitates the learning of other languages; promotes a range of learning styles from collaborative work with peers to independent learning; raises awareness of gender issues; contributes to the general education of learners; and makes a useful contribution to other areas of the curriculum, especially IT, the humanities, health education, personal and social education. Stage 3 of "Route Nationale" provides a progression from stages 1 and 2 whilst taking account of students' changing interests and increasing maturity. Material dealing with such topics as relationships, the environment and part-time jobs should enhance students' motivation, as well as contribute to their general development and support cross-curricular learning.
These copymasters primarily provide commicative activities, including classroom language activities, but also include solutions to the entree libre sections of the students' book, as well as grammar exercises related to le code de la route and student self-assessment sheets. Stage 3 of the series continues to provide core material for all students, plus a wealth of extension material at three levels of difficulty.
