This French reading comprehension activity will teach your students about the Québecoise singer Coeur de Pirate. Coeur de Pirate is the stage name for Beatrice Martin, a young woman from Quebec with a striking voice and an interesting style. Learn about how she went from unknown to international concert tours in this article and activity.

It is suitable for novice-high/intermediate-low students with teacher guidance and higher-level students to work independently. If you teach AP French, this reading can be useful in giving your students practice reading nonfiction articles for the interpretive section of the test. The reading can lead to discussion or writing activities to include the other two modes of communication.

The Boom™ cards version includes:

Reading in French about Coeur de Pirate
8 comprehension questions in English
8 comprehension questions in French
Assign the cards you want students to do, with the English questions, the French questions, or a mixture of both.
