French - Easter Worksheet (Pâques en France)

This six-page French activity worksheet introduces students to Easter as it is celebrated in France. It aims to equip students with the vocabulary and structures to talk about the holiday itself, as well as wider themes of celebration.

The worksheet begins first introduces some key vocabulary items, before a short, graded text with vocabulary support and comprehension questions. Further vocabulary activities consolidate and recycle (they will definitely know the word ‘Pâques’ by the end of it!). The worksheet rounds off with an open written exercise, encouraging students to write about their own experiences of Easter, comparing it to the French holiday.

The language level is around A2 on the CEFR scale (ideal for Year 8/9), with plenty of cognates, designed to encourage gist-reading longer texts.

Answers to all the vocabulary activities are supplied at the end of the worksheet.
