Lisons!

I'm new to the French Teachers of the U.S. Facebook Group, and it is turning out to be a phenomenal resource and virtual professional community.

I want to collect the wonderful ideas I'm learning about!

One excellent resource of comprehensible readings is 1jour1actu. It has news articles, infographics and videos that are designed to be understood by French speaking children. I can't wait to find ways to incorporate these texts into my units.

For example, I found lots of texts that would be perfect for a food unit. Articles and infographics abound on subjects ranging from "La Semaine du Goût" to the food groups to obesity.
