French A-level listening comprehension: Les femmes entrepreneuses
This listening resource is designed to enable A-level French students to improve their listening skills and develop their knowledge and understanding of gender equality in the world of business in France. It is particularly suitable for the Edexcel sub-theme 'Le monde du travail – l'égalité des sexes' and could make a good resource for use on International Women's Day on 8 March.
The worksheet is based on a YouTube video, 'Tout ce qu'il faut savoir sur les femmes entrepreneuses', and if students are provided with the link, they can access the resource independently and listen to it as many times as necessary. This makes the resource ideal for a homework task or for a listening activity in the computer room.
The worksheet includes vocabulary matching, a gap-fill task, comprehension questions and writing a summary.
