Description

Teach students about the 1918 Spanish Flu with a differentiated French reading comprehension available at two proficiency levels. This print-and-digital resource includes a simplified Level 2 article and a more advanced Levels 3–4 version, vocabulary support, comprehension questions in French and English, an answer key, and related video and reading resources.

TWO DIFFERENTIATED VERSIONS

LEVEL 2

The simplified version is designed for supported novice-high and intermediate-low readers. It includes the passé composé and imparfait, making it useful when you need a passé composé or imparfait lecture in a meaningful historical context.

LEVELS 3–4

The more advanced version is appropriate for stronger intermediate learners. In addition to past-tense narration, it includes some use of the subjunctive and can be assigned more independently.

Each version includes its own vocabulary list.

THE HISTORICAL TOPIC

Students read about the 1918 influenza pandemic, its effects, and its place in modern history. The nonfiction topic supports French reading comprehension while creating opportunities for historical comparison, discussion, and written reflection.

AP FRENCH APPLICATIONS
