11th Grade French Guided Reading Books

Do your AP French students need practice reading non-fiction in order to prepare for the test? Are you looking for interesting reading activities that can be done as class readings, independent reading, or free voluntary reading? Are you doing plenty of fun stories in your CI-driven French class, but you'd like to expose students to some less-common vocabulary or non-fiction readings? These readings are perfect for your intermediate and advanced French classes, levels 2 (with scaffolding) and up (more independently).

This bundle includes ALL of the intermediate and advanced French readings from the store. The price will go up as new items are added, but once you purchase you'll receive all of the new readings for free!

Most are non-fiction, but there are a few fiction stories mixed in. Science, culture, biographies, current events, cultural readings - a little bit of everything in one place! There are currently 118 different readings - enough to keep your students busy for the entire year. As new readings are added to the store, they will be added to this bundle as well.

Each reading includes:

• a printable article
• comprehension questions
• answer key
• additional resources

ACTFL performance descriptors:

• Comprehends simple stories, routine correspondence, short descriptive texts or other selections within familiar contexts. (int)
• Generally comprehends connected sentences and much paragraph-like discourse. (int)
• Comprehends information-rich texts with highly predictable order.(int)
• Comprehends paragraph discourse such as those found in stories, straightforward literary works, personal and work-related correspondence, written reports or instructions, oral presentations (news), anecdotes, descriptive texts, and other texts dealing with topics of a concrete nature. (adv)

Students can begin independently reading right away! Just print, (maybe laminate), and cut! This resource is a handout that matches the slideshow for the same lesson. It is in an easy to print format and can be printed in black and white or color.

I like to give students a ready-to-go reading format after the lesson. I have also included a video of me reading to students so they can hear the pronunciation. This is a great homework assignment as students get input and do not have to worry about getting right or wrong answers. It works perfectly for the flipped classroom, homeschooling, or sub work.

A fun French reading comprehension activity about a cat with digestive issues, this short story is written for beginning and intermediate French students. It tells the story of Marlene and her farting cat, Bruno. Bruno causes many problems for Marlene as she goes about her day at school. But will he also cost her a chance to go out with her crush?

It includes:

• a printable short story in French

• vocabulary flashcards

• grammar worksheet about verbs with accent mark changes

• comprehension questions

• a blank story sheet so students can write their own story
