Foreign Language Mastery Curriculum.
Griffin, Bruce; And Others
The Utah state foreign language mastery curriculum is outlined in the form of specific behavioral objectives for listening, thinking, speaking, reading, and writing skills, accuracy, and cultural awareness at four levels (novice, intermediate, advanced, and superior). The curriculum represents a change in overall emphasis from grammar to speaking skills supported by the other skills of reading, writing, and knowledge of structure. Goals for the elementary school student are also included. The goals, standards, and objectives are drawn from the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages' Provisional Proficiency Guidelines, which are appended. The curriculum is presented as a model to be adapted by school districts as needed. In addition, notes are provided concerning (1) the suggested correlation of proficiency level to years of secondary school foreign language study and (2) methods of teaching speaking skills. (MSE)
