It is suitable for novice-high/intermediate-low students with teacher guidance and higher level students to work independently.  If you teach AP French, this reading can be useful in giving your students practice reading nonfiction articles for the interpretive section of the test.  The reading can lead to discussion or writing activities to include the other two modes of communication.

The Concorde was an amazing piece of machinery, able to transport passengers from Paris to New York in less than 3 hours. It was also very safe, with only one fatal accident in 27 years of operation. What made this aircraft different from other jets, and why did operation of the Concorde cease?

Teacher reviews

“These resources are culturally perfect for me! While some of them are a bit of a more difficult read for my 5th graders, I am still able to use them. The vocabulary is rich, and most of all, the subjects are different from any other texts I have encountered so far! Love them!”
