A text with exercises. A description of an imaginary 15 year-old, Léa. text, true/false/not mentioned (in both English and French), gap-fill, questions asked to Léa. Answers given. Good for Higher GCSE. Level A2. Scroll down the left-hand column to the miscellaneous texts section.

A text with exercises on current trends in home working (télétravail) in France. Text, vocab to find, MCQs, comprehension questions in French and lexical work. Answers given. For Y13 or a strong Y12. Level B1/2.

A 'current affairs' text — a summary of a France Info report on the amazing rugby match between France and England in the Six Nations. Bullet point notes to take in English, oral summary in French if feasible.

Another information gap, text discovery task, to be done in pairs. This one is about the main themes of the film La Haine. Level B1. Year 12 or easy Y13 revision.

Another information gap, text discovery task, to be done in pairs. This one is about ultra-processed foods. Not an A-level sub-theme, but health is an IB topic. You could use this with a really high-flying GCSE group. I always gloss the hardest words and this topic has a lot of cognates. Level B1.

This is a lightly adapted version of the previous paired, text discovery task — this one for A-level (Y12). Level B1. It's about the Puy du Fou historical theme park and fits with the 'patrimoine' A-level sub-theme. I've been there and it's superb.

Another paired 'text discovery' information gap task. This one is about the amazing theme park Le Puy du Fou in the Vendée. Level A2. Higher GCSE. Remember you can always edit resources to make them easier or harder.

Another information gap, text discovery task for Year 10-11 (Higher GCSE), level A2. This one is about environmental issues facing France. These are great lessons for well-behaved, higher-achieving classes. Sit back and watch them listen, speak and read.

This follows the model of the previous two A-level tasks, but at an easier level (A2/Higher GCSE). The topic is volunteering in France. Each partner is given questions to ask about their partner's short text. They take notes in English, then try to summarise them orally. Good for a confident GCSE class. Great listening, reading, speaking and vocab building. I've glossed any potentially awkward vocab. This is a really good information gap task.

This is an advanced level information gap task where each partner has a short text on a topic (renewable energy). Each partner is also given 10 questions to ask their partner about their partner's text. Partners take notes in English, then summarise back to their partner orally in French. Level B2. A great way to generate listening, speaking, vocabulary and knowledge. Sit back and watch them communicate!
