The Grade 4 Method Presentation
This Grade 4 expression workbook is part of the “La Boîte aux Lettres” collection.
“La Boîte aux Lettres” for Grade 4 is a comprehensive method for learning French. It builds on our methods from previous grades. The spirit, content, and pedagogical practices are thus reframed 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 4 is based on the following methodological principles:
- Priority given to oral expression.
- Class projects to enable group work, interdisciplinarity, open-mindedness, and collaboration.
- Interesting and illustrated narrative texts.
- Perfecting reading skills.
- Initiation to the internal organization of the texts.
- Focusing on injunctive-prescriptive and informative texts.
- World discovery and reflection encouragement exercises.
- Perfecting writing skills through progressive lessons on the different types of writing.
- Illustrative supports in the margin of the texts explain difficult words.
- Insistence on vocabulary development in every unit.
