Encourage primary school pupils to become independent French readers with this collection of 6 short, highly-illustrated French information readers.
The Brilliant French Information Books are ideal for Key Stage 2 (KS2) children who don’t like reading stories.
Specially written by Danièle Bourdais and Sue Finnie to support young French learners, these non-fiction books consolidate core vocabulary and reinforce language patterns, while being packed full of information and photos of the French-speaking world which will broaden pupils’ perceptions and develop their intercultural understanding.
The Level 1 books are ideal for children in Years 3 and 4 who have started to study French.
