Text competence in L2 in primary schools. Do you have any particular strategies in training text competence with young L2 learners who came in the country at the age of 8/9 and now have to recuperate text competence in their L2 in order to go on to secondary school? Do you think that if their text understanding in L1 is not good, they will have difficulties in gaining text competence in L2? Would you focus on text competence in L1 first before training text competence in L2? Or would you do it simultaneously? Thanks a million for your thoughts.
