Video listening. A 1jour1question video with sentences to complete, an oral summary task and links to his most famous song Allumer le feu. Good for the AQA A-level contemporary music sub-theme.
In response to a request, I've uploaded a long list of ideas for the IRP (Individual Research Project) for A-level. Look in the A-level-specific exam resources. Scroll down the left hand column of the A-level page.
Remember that all new resources are marked with a date in red.

Beginner PowerPoint presentation on rooms in the house. Scaffolded structure to the presentation, 16 items.
Video listening (with optional YouTube sub-titles). Interview with a young volunteer who worked with disabled people and food redistribution. Questions to answer in French. Could be used with an excellent GCSE class (top set), or more commonly Y12 (low advanced).
Three short weird news items about animals. These are called "insolites" in French. There's a matching task, gap-fill, summary in English and vocabulary recall task. Nice if you fancy some reading outside the usual syllabus.
Advanced audio listening. An interview from France Bienvenue about issues surrounding wearing the veil in work and at university. The task is about correcting a faulty transcription, so requires intensive listening. Good discussion topic for A-level.
Video listening. This is a 2m 40 sub-titled in French video about plastic waste in the oceans. I have written sentences to complete (not exact transcriptions). The sub-titles help scaffold the moderately hard content. Suitable for a very good Y10-11 class (intermediate).
