Content
Each course is divided in two parts:
Students adopt the technique of rewriting, which means that they have a text of reference that helps them to make their own production. All the texts produced in class can be corrected and improved at home with the help of grid before they hand out their final copy the following week. The teacher alternates technical and creative sessions with varied material. The different types of texts are related to acts of speech (to tell, to describe, to explain, to advise, to inform, to convince) and go from easy to the more complex productions.
All the students are invited to complete a 'roadmap' on which they indicate all the corrections they've made on their copies.
- a phase of discovery in which students listen, read or watch a document they discuss in small groups.
