This review is from: French First Year (Workbook Edition) (Paperback)

This is the workbook we are now using in my second year of French, and it is almost exactly like the first we used, French is Fun, last year. (I'm a freshman in high school) Except this book uses less pictures and more words. It doesn't define the vocabulary words with pictures anymore! It gives the background and history of France, maps, and vocabulary. It conjugates verbs in chapters for each set, such as -er, -ir, -re and irregular verbs in present and past tense. It gives you many examples to work on and sometimes my teacher even reverses the rules so instead of re-conjugating the verb back into the sentence, she makes us translate it instead. All of the words are listed in the back (except for some easy ones) and there's a handy index too. All exercises in the book can be used in lots of ways instead of just what they say. Let me just say that I have a 98% in this class, that's how good the book works.
