Places in French Stories, Comprehensible Input, and Activities for High School

Description

The best way to cement the vocabulary for the places in French is with compelling stories, and TPRS is a great way to provide comprehensible input. These French Stories hook students into the lesson as they try to figure out what will happen next. They may even forget they are thinking in French! There are two stories that use vocabulary words for places and related expressions, student handouts, Google Slides digital versions, and a competition. Students practice reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Appropriate for high school students. I used these stories in French Two but advanced French One students may enjoy them also.
