IFADEM Haiti, Booklet 4: Teaching Written Comprehension and Production

The booklet belongs to the IFADEM teacher-training program run with the Ministry of National Education and Professional Training and co-piloted by the Agence universitaire de la Francophonie and the Organisation internationale de la Francophonie. It was written by two teachers of the Faculté de Linguistique Appliquée in Port-au-Prince and two members of the Université des Antilles et de la Guyane. It states that mastery of written expression and comprehension is required of French teachers and is a large part of the skills expected of pupils in the école fondamentale.

A memento presents the teaching sheet and the didactics and method for reading comprehension and written production. Activities then work through narrative, argumentative, descriptive, informative and injunctive texts, followed by sentence and text grammar exercises, a self-assessment and an answer key.
