Method - Commenting on 2 documents : faire un brouillon pour l'oral
Le jour de l'oral du bac vous n'aurez que 20 m pour préparer votre analyse de deux documents. Et la lecture des documents va déjà vous prendre un temps précieux. De plus, si les examinateurs vous voient lire votre brouillon, ils vont vous le prendre ou vous pénaliser puisque la lecture ne fait pas partie des compétences à évaluer.
Sur votre brouillon, ne doivent donc figurer que les éléments essentiels et/ou ceux que vous avez peur d'oublier.
