Comprehensible input is important in a world languages class - but you can't always do stories. This is a French comprehensible input lesson that uses target structures in a comprehensible way to teach about a nonfiction topic - the castles of the Loire Valley. The story includes some passé composé, so it is appropriate for second year and beyond.

The target structures are:

• est situé
• un château
• a été

This item includes:

• a 30-slide PowerPoint with repetition of the target vocabulary
• a text version of the PowerPoint
• comprehension questions
• a grammar explanation on how to say “the best”
• a story retell sheet with photos - one for writing, one for oral retell
• a list of associated videos
• a complete answer key
