From school disciplines to school culture: The case of spelling teaching at elementary school
Abstract
The culture of our societies is full of school culture elements. The spelling teaching in France had, historically, three direct effects. First, the french orthography stopped to evolute; second, the unknowledge of orthography became a sign of “lack of culture”; finally, the needs of this teaching created a school grammar theory, which principles and even terminologies were accepted by a great number of linguists. Both the grammar for the school as the veneration of French society to its orthographic system are pieces of the modern French culture.
Keywords: school culture, language teaching, history of education.
