Help your students improve their French with this practical listening and reading comprehension resource. It features key French expressions like:

- "Ça sent bon ici!"

- "Il a l'air triste."

- "Ça m'est égal."

- "Merci, c'est gentil."

- "Cela fait du bien de parler avec vous."

- "Cela me semble juste."

These expressions are embedded in the text, allowing students to practice making inferences, connections, and predictions. The resource includes ten comprehension questions that encourage careful reading or listening. This isn’t a beginner-level quiz, so it will challenge your students to think more deeply about the language.

* This resource is also available as a Google Form, a simple reading comprehension activity with multiple choice answers. The text and questions in the Google Form are the same as those in this comprehensive listening and reading resource.

What’s Included:

This resource has eight different parts that can be used for either reading or listening practice. Each part builds on the last, helping students understand and use the material effectively.

1. Reading Comprehension - Written Text: Start by having students read the text. You can let them read along while listening to the audio, helping them connect spoken and written French.

2. Listening Comprehension - Audio Recording: The text is read by François, a native speaker from Paris, at a normal pace. If students find it too fast at first, let them read along while listening, and then try listening without the text.

3. Listening Comprehension - Questions Audio Recording: After the text, students will hear questions read aloud, with a bell tone and a brief pause to give their answers. This helps them practice listening and responding in real time.

4. Listening Comprehension - Open-Ended Questions Worksheet: This worksheet allows students to write their answers to the spoken questions. For a more interactive experience, you can have them answer orally instead.

5. Reading Comprehension - Open-Ended Questions Worksheet: With the text in front of them, students answer questions in complete sentences, helping them to better understand and express their thoughts in French.

6. Reading Comprehension - Multiple Choice Questions Worksheet: This worksheet offers a multiple-choice format for students who might need a bit more support, making it easier to find the correct answers.

7. Cloze Activity - Fill in the Blanks: Students listen to the audio and fill in the missing words in the text. A word bank is provided, and you can use the original text as the answer key.

8. English Translation of Text + Multiple Choice Quiz Answer Key: An English translation of the text is included for reference, along with the answer key for the multiple-choice quiz. While the translation is helpful, the focus is on understanding the French text.

How to Use:

For best results, start with the reading activities so students become familiar with the text. After a few days or the following week, use the same material for listening practice. This will help reinforce what they’ve learned and improve their overall language skills.

This resource is a great way to help your students gain confidence in French!

55 Common French Expressions

Learning common French expressions is a great way to spice up conversations, increase vocabulary, and sound more French. The grammar in these expressions is varied, so this resource is fine for all levels (even beginners). Many of these expressions are informal or familiar, and if that is the case it's indicated on the card. However, none of the expressions are inappropriate or vulgar. Click here for a set of 100 different common French expressions.

The idea is to not worry about WHY things are said this way in French, but instead to encourage our students to accept it and memorize these 55 short expressions, interjections, and sentence starters. My students have a lot of fun using these, and I love hearing them having fun with French!

In addition to the set of cards, you get video and audio versions. All of the words and expressions are spoken slowly, and students are given time to repeat them aloud. English translations are included for all 55 expressions on the video recording. Students will notice that the English versions are almost never direct translations, which is interesting to note! An audio recording is included so you can share this to have your students practice almost anywhere (even on the way to school)!

Included:

1. Video recording with all 55 expressions written in French and English - 9 minutes
2. Audio recording for listening comprehension and pronunciation practice - 9 minutes
3. Set of 55 practice cards to print, cut out, and use over and over again

How to use the set of practice cards:

Have students print and cut out the set of 55 cards, and hook them together with a ring. Expressions are written in French at the top, and in English at the bottom. As they practice and master these expressions by using the video and audio recordings, they can test themselves frequently with the stack of cards. When they feel confident with a word or expression, they can take a pair of scissors and CUT OFF THE ENGLISH translation on the dotted line. They'll eventually have a handy set of French only cards to pull out any time they'd like to review.
