Au Revoir Les Enfants

A complete French lesson plan for Au Revoir Les Enfants — ready to open and teach.

Au Revoir Les Enfants tests friendship against circumstances that would break most people. The French is rich and natural — the kind of language students hear in the world, not in language labs. Culturally, the film opens conversations that belong in any serious French classroom.

Good films have natural moments — a powerful scene, a cultural encounter, a shift in the story — where the language and meaning come together. This plan identifies those moments in Au Revoir Les Enfants and builds a lesson around each one. For every scene, you get vocabulary and cultural notes, comprehension activities, and communicative tasks your students can work through in class or independently. A pre-film warm-up gets them ready before the first screening.

Everything is included: the teacher's guide, student worksheets in French, and an answer key.
