Both core and immersion teachers have been thrilled
with Histoires en action ! pour les tout petits 1A, 2A
and 3A, the AIM program for young beginners. Now, Petite
Pauline, the fourth-level kit, is available! This kit features a wonderful new original play by Wendy Maxwell. This tale points out that special things often come in small packages. Great new songs and raps!

The Histoires en action ! pour les tout petits series of kits have been created for the following reasons:
• to allow you to begin the AIM with very young students in core (FSL) or immersion programs, using plays that are
shorter, simpler to learn and appropriate to the interests of the very young student;
• to allow you to provide a preparatory program at the
preschool or early primary grade levels before beginning
Histoires en action ! with older elementary students.
