Liberia French Curriculum G7-9
The understanding of a foreign language is cri cal to the interac ons with neighboring countries and the Global World through both verbal and
wri en communica on.
A learner-centered approach is emphasized in this curriculum. This is based on the firm belief that learning becomes more permanent,
meaningful and exci ng when learners themselves take ownership of the learning process. Instructors are therefore urged to contrive those
classroom strategies that engage learners ac vely in the teaching and learning process.
