Description
Description
The purpose of Paragraphes is to give learners theoretical concepts and effective techniques for planning, writing and revising the various types of texts they’ll be asked to produce in school and the workplace. To those ends, it offers
- theoretical concepts, accompanied by exercises to improve vocabulary and sentence structure,
- techniques for writing different types of texts,
- revision and correction strategies,
- varied writing exercises whose degree of difficulty increases gradually within each chapter, and
- literature search and text comprehension strategies.
The book is divided into 2 main sections.
The first section, Notions d’écriture, offers a summary of the essential knowledge needed to improve vocabulary, sentences and the overall text.
The second section, La rédaction, consists of a theoretical and practical exploration of various text types that students may be called upon to draft in the future: summaries; informative, expressive, narrative and argumentative texts; critical reviews; and explanatory essays.
And lastly, rounding off the book are appendices presenting strategies to improve spelling, to revise and correct texts, and to search the literature, as well citation rules.
