No, it's not the M4!!!
The Wonderful Welsh have given us many things.
They gave us really cool stuff like powered flight, the theory of natural selection, radar, and the microphone.
They have given us such stars as Shirley Bassey, Sir Anthony Hopkins, Charlotte Church, Dylan Thomas, Tanni Grey-Thompson and that opera singing bloke from the Go Compare adverts.
But these all pale into insignificance* when compared to the WJEC French reading challenges website.
* No, they don't!
I came across this site purely by accident but it is really good for revising and practising vocabulary.
If you are teaching the new specification French GCSE this is an ideal place for your students to do some independent study.
The home screen looks like this:
The challenges are categorised into the 4 topics:
For each category there is a choice of activities (even some listening tasks).
There are different levels of difficulty.
From easy vocabulary matching games...
to sentence building...
to exam style reading comprehension tasks...
I've done some of the challenges on my laptop and on my fruit-pad and they work well on both devices.
My only criticism is that I couldn't find anything similar in the other languages offered at GCSE by WJEC but I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they arrive.
