resource material Explanation: Just another suggestion, really. But I wonder if you would feel better about your own translation of the term if you made it singular, ie material not materials. I guess you have to live with the slightly pompous tone of the source document! |

set texts Explanation: The second occurence is strange. It could be that the children are askd to organise the books in the classroom according to theme, or in alphabetical order, or date, or by publisher. In France, children are taught how a library works and where to find the author, publisher, illustator of a book at a very young age. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2008-07-24 08:09:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ...in which case 'produire' would be 'collects or chooses' rather than 'writes'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 45 mins (2008-07-24 08:34:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Maybe 'Classroom texts'? |
