Abstract
Initiation Classes (CLIN) must privilege a French language didactic which is specifically oriented toward students who are versed in multiple languages. This article proposes to redefine the nature of teaching instruction in the Initiation Class, which aims to develop student language autonomy to enable integration within standard classes. It is upon questioning the different French didactical methods (FLM/ FLS/ FLE) that we will introduce propositions on a transversal didactic, taking first-level program objectives into account. On the basis of the Canadian experience of «Intensive French » led by C. Germain and J. Netten (2004), we will define a project method entitled «Reflective observation of languages » (ORL), whose objective is to prepare the practice of «Reflective observation of the French language » (ORLF) according to recommendations of the French National Education System. This article attempts to demonstrate how the French language didactic in the Initiation Class, taking into consideration multiple language abilities, plays a formative role at this early stage for future learning.
