What it is: A plan is five short notes: text type, reader, three ideas, opening and ending. It takes about 5 minutes.
Your time: In 1 h 15: about 5 min planning, 60 min writing, 10 min checking.
| Plan line | Example notes |
|---|---|
| Type | blog |
| Reader · register | élèves · tu / vous |
| 3 ideas | 1. le problème 2. mon expérience 3. conseils |
| Opening | une question au lecteur |
| Ending | un appel à l'action |

Remember: Write the plan in notes, not sentences. It is for you, not the examiner.
