Immerse yourself in the French-speaking world
When you immerse yourself in the French-speaking world, you
become engaged in the language. Francophone culture not only draws
you in with its richness and vibrancy; it's also the best vehicle
for mastering the language.
That's why Siskin, Field, and Storme's Fourth Edition of
"Ouvertures" uses culture as an organizing principle. "Ouvertures"
integrates culture into the teaching of all five skills--speaking,
grammar, listening, reading, and writing. These skills provide the
basis for exploring the cultures of the francophone world.
Features Cultural themes serve as unifying elements within each
chapter. New readings update the cultural focus of the text, and
new cultural sections (Notions de culture) expand the chapter
themes. The text presents a manageable amount of material while
paying thorough attention to all five skills. New, realia-based
exercises (A la loupe) encourage you to think critically. The
text's process-writing approach to composition assignments helps
you brainstorm vocabulary, create plans, and write and revise
drafts. A two-step grammar presentation first quickly reviews
grammar points generally covered in first-year French courses, and
then explains and practices new grammar that you need at the
intermediate level of French.

"Ouvertures" uses culture as the organizing principle to its
communicative approach in the teaching of speaking, reading,
listening, and writing. It offers content-based instruction where a
cultural theme serves as a unifying element within each chapter. It
also promotes a contrastive approach to culutre that encourages
(self-)exploration rather than judgments. And, finally,
"Ouvertures" seeks to provide a manageable amount of material while
paying throrough and appropriately distributed attention to all
five skills.
