Description
Teach about French monuments with these fun and engaging French culture reading and vocabulary activities! This bundle includes engaging resources for 3 important sites in Paris to help your students begin to explore aspects of French culture. These no-prep activities with clear student directions make these activities perfect for substitute days, too!
Lead your students to discover 3 important sites in Paris through reading comprehension activities in English or French. With a variety of vocabulary worksheets and puzzles plus differentiated reading activities, it’s so easy to provide just the right challenge for all your learners as you discover French culture together!
You can use the English version for your beginners and use the full-French version for your more-advanced classes. You’ll also get links to videos to support the learning, so your students will really get to visualize these important French monuments!

Who are these French monuments activities best for?
- French immersion classes, grades 5+
- FSL grades 5+
➪Because these are informational texts, the reading will be more challenging than those found in my beginner differentiated reading activities. For level 1 and 2 students, I recommend using the English text with the English or French reading comprehension questions.

Originally reviewed on TPTI used the Eiffel Tower text leading up to the Paris Olympics. Students found the facts within the text quite interesting. It was at the right level that it required the students to use a variety of reading skills to comprehend the text.

Originally reviewed on TPTI incorporated these reading activities into a Paris/travel unit I am doing with my intermediate students. My students are engaged and I appreciate that the texts are in both French and English which allows me to also leave them for a non-French speaking occasional teacher if necessary. Thank you for another great resource!
