Title: Levain: Giving Bread its Spark of Life...In France or in the Wild West
Body:
In this article, the author reminisces on their life in relation to bread--their connection to it, its impact on their life, and more. This reflection is peppered with key French vocabulary throughout, linking the largely English text back to the French bakeries that the author describes. The text concludes with a vocabulary bank to help review. This resource would be great for a beginning French class in which students are still becoming comfortable with the language and may need the assistance of their L1 to add confidence and context.
