Description
These 10 French reading passages are the perfect way to get your beginning French students reading. These are great for the Core French classroom. Each passage includes 3 versions of the student question sheets. Cette ressource contient 10 compréhensions de lecture pour les débutants.
Foster a love of reading in your French class with easy-to-use French reading comprehension worksheets that were created just for beginning readers. Each text includes 3 different levels of questions, so you can easily use the same passage with different ability groups and grade levels. Students will love that these activities are just at their level, meaning that reading in French is less intimidating and a lot more fun!
These questions are appropriate for beginning Core French students and immersion classes beginning to work on reading comprehension. Check the preview to assess the difficulty level and see if it meets your needs.
Use these differentiated French reading activities with your different proficiency levels. Each reading passage includes:
- Short answer English questions and students can answer in English : These questions will be the easiest for true beginners.
- Short answer French questions : This has the same style of questions as the English, however, the questions are in French and students are directed to answer in French. These are best for your more-advanced learners.
- Multiple choice questions in French : Occasionally, students will locate specific information in the text (such as adjectives or certain verb tenses). These are great for any level, as the questions are a bit different than the short answer versions.
You can choose all one version for a class, but I like to use different versions based on student levels so that differentiation is super-easy! You can always print 2 versions back-to-back and let students choose their own activity.
