Challenge your Years 9–10 French students to engage deeply with Anzac Day through this rich, multi-layered reading comprehension resource. Two original French texts move students from historical understanding to personal reflection and cross-cultural thinking — all scaffolded across three levels of comprehension.
What's inside:
Text 1 — Le Jour de l'Anzac — souvenir et commémoration explores the history of Gallipoli, the significance of the dawn service, the role of the poppy, and the often-overlooked contributions of Indigenous soldiers — in fluent, vocabulary-rich French at A2–B1 level.
Text 2 — Que signifie le Jour de l'Anzac pour les Australiens ? presents three compelling first-person perspectives: James (whose grandfather served in Korea), Uncle David (a Larrakia Elder calling for recognition of Indigenous soldiers), and Yuki (a Japanese-Australian student navigating a complex relationship with Anzac history).
Each text comes with three levels of comprehension questions:
Level 1 — Compréhension littérale: Students locate key information directly from the text
Level 2 — Compréhension inférentielle: Students analyse meaning and explain their reasoning in English
Level 3 — Compréhension évaluative: Students give their own opinion and justify their thinking in French, including an extended speech-writing task
Also included:
A vocabulary challenge (Défi vocabulaire) across both texts
Generous writing lines throughout
A full teacher answer key with suggested responses and marking guidance for all three levels
Australian Curriculum links: AC9LFR10C01 · AC9LFR10C03 · AC9LFR10U01 · AC9LFR10U03
PDF and editable Word document included
This resource is:
Fully aligned to the Australian Curriculum: Languages — French, Years 9–10
Culturally sensitive — honouring all Australians including Indigenous peoples and those from migrant backgrounds
Print-ready with all instructions written in English
Suitable for one to two lessons, or as an assessment task
