French-Literary Text- Mama Keita
Welcome to a fascinating journey in French literature with a teaching resource that primarily focuses on the study of an excerpt from Nuit Blanche by Mama Keïta. This tool is specially designed for advanced students at Grade 11 and 12 studying World Languages, specifically French. It provides educators with a unique opportunity to engage students in rich literary work and enhance language skills simultaneously.
The complete .zip folder contains resources that can be easily implemented in different learning environments - whole-group instructions, small group activities or individual homework tasks. The package includes:

To stimulate higher cognitive engagement, there's also a worksheet integrated with two engaging activities: 'find the equivalent' and 'fill in the gaps,' collectively accounting for 12 marks. These activities aim to encourage learners to interact closely with the text while developing key language skills such as translation competence and understanding context clues. For efficient grading, teachers are provided with versions inclusive of answers.
This product also comes equipped with a concise PowerPoint presentation composed of six slides that capture essential information about:
- The author,
