Reflections on methodological approaches to French in Rwanda

Our job as educationalists is to lay the groundwork, to lead to reflections: how to teach French in a multilingual setting. This book offers an overview of the processes, methods and techniques to understand the teaching. First, it deals with the intervention of playfulness in the FLE classroom. Second, we are concerned with the issue of oral expression in the beginning class. How is speaking taught in classrooms in Rwanda? The performance and mastery of language led us to another area: the practice of drama in the classroom. This is sometimes introduced as a game in the classroom, not only as part of socialization but also as a way of loosening the learners' tongues. Finally, the last method focused on the actional method. This perspective, which is based on action, takes into account several approaches that preceded it: the communicative approach; the task-based approach; and the competence-based approach. The latter proposes to focus on tasks.
