6 livres de lecture destinés aux élèves de FLÉ/FLS de 12 à 18 ans
Présentation de la collection
Les livrets de lecture de la collection Littératie III sont rédigés à l’intention des élèves de 12 à 18 ans par des enseignants de français d’expérience, praticiens de l’approche neurolinguistique d’enseignement des langues.
Sous la direction de Olivier Massé, Steeve Mercier et Joan Netten.
Fondée sur une conception de la littératie spécifique à la classe de langue seconde.
La collection Littératie III s’inscrit dans la succession des collections Littératie I & II proposées aux jeunes lecteurs par Myosotis Presse. Elle propose six lectures captivantes et riches en enseignement aux apprenants de français langue seconde/étrangère.
Les personnages, des camarades de classe originaires de divers milieux culturels, vivent toutes sortes d’aventures et se retrouvent confrontés à des problèmes auxquels se heurtent la plupart des adolescents, ce qui permet aux jeunes lecteurs de s’identifier à eux.
Les thématiques abordées telles que la musique, la technologie, l’amitié et les relations amoureuses rejoignent la jeunesse d’aujourd’hui, tout en impliquant les lecteurs sur les plans émotionnel et cognitif au niveau narratif. Il en va de même avec les illustrations, qui, sur le plan esthétique, s’inspirent du style manga, très populaire chez les adolescents.
En observant les expressions et les gestes des personnages, les élèves apprennent à décoder à la fois les messages verbaux et non verbaux. Les textes, soigneusement rédigés par des enseignants d’expérience travaillant avec des adolescents depuis plusieurs années, ont été élaborés pour répondre à leurs besoins. En plus de respecter les exigences scolaires, ces textes présentent une variation de registres de langue : dans les dialogues, les adolescents utilisent un langage familier qui est ponctué d’interjections propres à leur milieu ; dans le texte descriptif, on trouve un langage plus soutenu, nécessaire à l’apprentissage académique.
Ces outils d’apprentissage de lecture au niveau intermédiaire ont été élaborés pour pouvoir être exploités en classe à n’importe quel niveau, dès lors que l’enseignant désire appliquer les stratégies d’enseignement de l’Approche Neurolinguistique d’enseignement des langues (ANL). En outre, les liens entre les histoires et les personnages, que le lecteur retrouvera dans chacun des six volumes, donnent à l’enseignant l’occasion de faire de nombreux rappels afin de stimuler la mémoire de ses apprenants.
Educational Posters
The Collection of Educational Posters by Myosotis serve to enrich classrooms in a useful, intelligent and inspiring way. They promote an awakening to First Nations’ and North American Francophones’ cultures and guide literacy development: the capacity to speak, read, write and to foster a critical sense before the rich and complex world which surrounds us.
Taken from the le Myosotis dictionnary, the 11 posters of the collection come from the cultural capsules found in le Myosotis Dictionary, measure 12 X 18 inches (30,48 cm x 45.72 cm) and are double-sided. On one side they are in a print font while the other side is in cursive writing.
They also come with a pedagogical set containing suggested activities and MP3 audio files (male and female voices with a natural accent) to download (for download information contact us at info@myosotis.ca).
Telescopic pedagogical wand
Compared to the “laser pointer”, the wand (whether it is a wooden or metal rod) has a definite advantage for teaching reading. It is not simply used to indicate where to look at an area or element, but it also makes it possible – and above all – to facilitate the teacher’s work by helping the learner to associate the relationships between sounds and the graphic signs that represent them.
Since reading requires a path of the eye on a graphic line, the rigid rod makes it possible to follow much better, with the guidance of the hand rather than with a laser, the unfolding of the signs that must be correlated to the voice.

L’Approche Neurolinguistique (ANL)
A must for all second or foreign language teachers!
Indispensable reading and reference work for all practitioners of the Neurolinguistic Approach (NLA), this book by Claude Germain, co-founder of the NLA, answers most of the questions that FSL / FLE teachers are asking about this approach.
The Neurolinguistic Approach(NLA), known in Canada as Intensive French, celebrates its 20th anniversary. In order to mark this special event, Dr Claude Germain, author of NLA with Dr Joan Netten, publishes a popular scientific work in which he presents the founding principles of a new paradigm, which already has an important impact on second language education. It is geared towards actual and future second or foreign language teachers, and specialists in second language education. The book is written in a FAQ format in order to answer the most frequently asked questions in NLA teacher training sessions.
Already adopted in several countries in Asia, Europe and America, the ANL, thanks to its foundations in cognitive neurosciences, constitutes a major contribution to the evolution of language learning / teaching.
