Un jour un actu translates to “one day, one news article”. This is probably one of my favorite sites to read because it’s aimed at French children ages seven to thirteen. That allows for good French reading and the ability to easily use context clues when understanding is a little rough. Despite the target age group, the articles are very interesting and pose questions about everyday topics that even adults could use some insight to!
If you’re a beginner or intermediate French Learner, this site is a bookmarking MUST.
The site features articles about: The world, culture, France, Science, Sports, and our environment. It’s written by French people for French people (which is why it’s so great). Every article features a mot du jour, or word of the day. The article also tests your individual comprehension by asking two or three multiple choice questions at the bottom. It’s really a great way to check comprehension.
