| Title | French News Activity |
| Body | I decided to try using some news stories for my 4th year students this year. Here is a site: http://www.lesclesjunior.com I devised this activity: Students work in groups of 3 or 4. Each group reads the article amongst themselves, first picking out the cognates. Each group is allowed to ask me for 5 vocabulary words they don't know and can't guess. I don't want them to use dictionaries because I find they spend too much time agonizing over translating every little detail. I want them to just tell me the gist of the article, not a word for word translation. Freeman, M.A. News stories in French. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv.
