Using a short extract from 'Le Petit Nicolas', this resource will help students get used to reading authentic French literary texts – an essential skill for GCSE French. The extract is available via an online link in the teaching notes. It is a humorous description of the doctor's visit to see Nicolas, who is suffering from a stomach ache. 

The worksheet is designed to make the text accessible, with a highlighting task and a 'find the French' exercise, as well as comprehension questions. A creative writing prompt is included, to give students the opportunity to continue the story themselves.

Hi, the link you have posted doesn't work. Thanks.

Hi Rachel - please see the comment above. Unfortunately we are not able to include the full text for copyright reasons, but you should still be able to find the text online. I have also emailed you the link. Hope this will still be of use to you, Sheena Newland, Editor.

Hi Stephen, as a Free Member you are able to download the PDF rather than the adaptable Word document (which is for subscribers only). This is why the link to the text online would need to be copied and pasted into your browser rather than just clicked on. Chapter and paragraph references are given in the teaching notes on p.3. Hope this helps!

Excellent - I will use it for highlighting verbs in perfect and imperfect. Text is available online if you click on the link, easy to copy and paste. Thank you.

Is there a copy of the part of the text the exercise is based on? If not, is there a page reference or chapter and paragraph reference. Currently this resource is not quickly and easily usable. Thank you.
