Grade 1 Method Presentation

This Grade 1 reading textbook is part of the “Arc-en-ciel” collection. The latter is based on the mixed reading method. Starting with a global approach, letters and syllables are then combined to form new words.

The “Arc-en-ciel” collection for Grade 1 is based on the following methodological principles:

• Oral comprehension and expression: the many exercises encourage children to express themselves orally.
• An abundance of illustrations: attractive and colorful images strengthen comprehension and encourage oral expression.
• Children’s active participation: interactive activities stimulate children’s interest and engagement.
• Regular assessments: these pages allow for tracking of children’s progress.

The “Arc-en-ciel” collection for Grade 1 is a comprehensive method for learning French. It comprises the following four components: a reading textbook, two exercise workbooks, and a writing copybook. This collection also includes 10 storybooks.

3. Finally, review pages assess the learning objectives.
