Togo Cours Élémentaire 2 School Syllabus - Languages

The Togolese education system is based on the French system, with French as the primary language of instruction. English language instruction was introduced in preschool and primary schools starting in the academic year that began September 25, 2023. While precise details of the Togo Cours Élémentaire 2 (CE2) syllabus are unavailable, the French CE2 curriculum, particularly for Cycle 2 (which includes CE2), provides a close approximation.

Languages (Based on the French Cycle 2 Curriculum)

• French Language Arts: The French curriculum emphasizes fundamental learning in reading, writing, and oral communication during Cycle 2 (CP, CE1, CE2). By the end of CE2, students are expected to achieve the following:
• Oral Language: Maintain sustained attention during listening and discussions, express misunderstandings appropriately, produce clear statements adapted to the audience and purpose, utilize various forms of speech (telling, describing, explaining), participate actively in exchanges (questions, answers, agreements/disagreements).
• Reading Comprehension: Quickly identify words (decode unfamiliar words, recognize frequent and irregular words), read and understand age-appropriate texts, read aloud fluently (after preparation), participate in reading dialogues (after preparation).
• Writing: Copy and transcribe texts legibly (respecting punctuation, spelling, and presentation), write coherent and organized texts of approximately half a page (appropriate for the target audience), revise and improve writing based on feedback.
• Study of Language (Grammar, Spelling, Lexicon): Spell frequent and invariable words, apply grammatical rules (agreement within nominal groups, subject-verb agreement), utilize language knowledge to improve oral and written expression and enhance text comprehension.
• English Language: With the introduction of English in Togolese primary schools from September 2023, CE2 students likely receive English language instruction. However, the specifics of the curriculum are not readily available.

It is important to note that this information is based on the French system and the recent introduction of English in Togo. The actual Togolese CE2 Languages syllabus may have some variations.
