Description
Grade 1 Exercise Workbook 1 – La Boîte aux Lettres
The Grade 1 Method Presentation
This Grade 1 exercise workbook 1 is part of the “La Boîte aux Lettres” collection.
“La Boîte aux Lettres” for Grade 1 is based on the syllabic reading method, which allows for a clear and logical progression, from the simplest to the more complex. Children first learn to read individual letters, then syllables, words, sentences, and complete texts.
The method applied in this Grade 1 exercise workbook develops our KG1, KG2, and KG3 methods. The spirit, content, and pedagogical practices are thus reviewed and extended. Our teaching methods emphasize oral expression, which forms the foundation for learning to read and write.
The “La Boîte aux Lettres” collection for Grade 1 is based on the following methodological principles:
- Priority given to oral comprehension and expression through numerous exercises that encourage children to speak.
- 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.
- Learning the shapes and sounds of letters to introduce reading.
- Regular assessments that allow for tracking children’s progress.
The “La Boîte aux Lettres” 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.
Grade 1 Exercise Workbooks
The two exercise workbooks complement the Grade 1 reading textbook and focus on developing oral comprehension and expression, as well as written comprehension and expression. They include, for example, vocabulary and phrasing exercises. Assessment pages are also included to monitor students’ progress.
