A two-page reading and translation worksheet to explore the life and career of French figure skater Surya Bonaly, linking cultural awareness with language practice.

Students learn about her achievements and the challenges she faced in professional sport, through a mix of vocabulary, comprehension and translation tasks.

What’s included:

  • a vocabulary search to break down the text
  • a reading task to order key events in her story
  • a tangled translation to consolidate comprehension and accuracy
  • all leading to an opportunity to reflect on identity and representation in sport

Designed for GCSE French (Foundation–Higher crossover) and suitable for classwork, homework or revision.
