Beginning French learners of all ages will develop language skills while reading the story of Jesus' birth. Color the pictures, cut on the dotted lines, and staple along the left margin to make your own 14-page Christmas story/picture book. The "Premier Noel - First Christmas" story follows the Biblical accounts of Luke and Matthew, but in simple, present tense sentences that novice-level language learners can easily understand. Along with your coloring book, you will also receive a bilingual vocabulary list, animals of the manger flash cards, teaching tips, text in both English and French, a fill-in-the blank exercise, comprehension questions, an activity page, and five Christmas carol coloring pages. This Christmas, share your faith and teach language at the same time. This download is ideal for use at home, in Sunday School, or as a part of a Christian or parochial education. (21 pages)
