The new Stein/Blume, French Three Years, Second Edition, is designed to give students a comprehensive review and thorough understanding of the elements of the French language and the highlights of French culture. This new edition was revised to incorporate and reflect the national Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st century: cultural cpmpetence, comparisons, connections, communities, and communication (the 5 Cs). This book demonstrates how the acquisition of French is connected and interwoven with the principles of critical thinking, learning strategies, and the mastery of subject areas. It also reflects how French is used not only in France but throughout the world.
