Description
An Overview of the ABC Level –
This is a French discovery program for younger students with activities and songs. Mission ABC is in 4 levels (equaling 4 years of lessons if you use one workbook per grade or 2 years of lessons if you use 2 workbooks per grade). The Teacher’s Manual includes all 4 levels and offers activities, games, songs and review lessons. The workbooks have 40 pages/20 lessons each and every 10 lessons there is a small oral test. Mission ABC covers some vocabulary on the topics of Alphabet, Numbers, Shapes, Colours, Days of the Week, Months of the Year, Seasons, Food, Animals, Body Parts, Classroom Vocabulary, Prepositions, Family Words, Telling Time, Emotions, Weather, House Words, Clothing, Continents, Transportation, Buildings, Sports, Instruments, Pronouns, and verbs être and avoir. (It is NOT a prerequisite to Mission Monde French nor is it a substitute for it. It is simply a program for families wanting to introduce their children to FSL earlier than the junior grades. Mission Monde will repeat any necessary vocab/skills that exist in the ABC levels.)
The Options –
The FULL PACKAGE includes one (1) downloadable teacher manual, one (1) link to the audio files in mp3 format online, and one each of the printed four (4) student workbooks.
The BASIC PACKAGE includes the link to the audio files in mp3 format online, one each of four (4) student workbooks but NO teacher’s manual. (We offer a basic package because the teacher’s manual is more of use in a class setting and at this younger age, we did not feel that it was as helpful for a homeschool mom unless she wanted to use group games or have some help with structuring lessons.)
We also sell extra student workbooks for Mission ABC – perfect for siblings! Because the French workbooks are consumable (to be written in, not reproducible), each student needs his or her own workbook. The set of FOUR EXTRA STUDENT WORKBOOKS includes one copy each of the ABC workbooks. (No teacher’s manual, no audio product.)
About Pricing –
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PRICE for resources by MFB French Publications is offered to INDIVIDUALS ONLY for the purpose of home education, NOT SCHOOLS. (Some prices are different for schools due to copyright.) If you are wanting to purchase materials for a school classroom, please contact us directly here.
Also, because we are a small business, we no longer charge tax on any of our products. What this means however, is that our retail price, when we have kept the same price as our “competitors” who do charge the tax, the total cost has been lower for this FRENCH programs. This seems to have possibly caused some customers to choose to purchase Mission Monde through us because of our “lower price” overall.
Our understanding, from years ago when we were the first curriculum company to carry this line of French curriculum, is that the price should generally remain consistent for the customer, regardless of who sells it and we’d like to honour that the best we can. Therefore, we have changed our pricing to be essentially what a customer would pay elsewhere. (That amount of increase can go towards the costs of shipping to get the small orders of stock of the workbooks over to us in the Maritimes.)
