Examples of published stories

Harry Potter au pays des classes grammaticales variables

Created by manon-fqs, this story (235 views) transposes the Harry Potter universe into the world of grammar. Students play a character who has to identify and handle inflected word classes (nouns, verbs, adjectives, determiners, pronouns) in order to progress in the adventure. The familiar cultural reference takes the solemnity out of a subject often seen as dry and turns the grammar exercise into a narrative quest.

Au pays de la versification

With 325 views, this story invites students to explore the mechanics of French versification: rhyme, metre, figures of speech, poetic forms. Instead of a lecture on the alexandrine, students travel through a poetic world where each choice reveals a rule of versification in context. An approach that gives formal analysis a purpose.

Voyage au pays des expansions du nom

This story (505 views) targets grammar for 12-year-olds. Students set off on a journey through a world where noun expansions (attributive adjectives, prepositional complements, relative clauses) are the keys to moving forward. Every branch tests the student's ability to recognise and use those constructions. The path works as well for discovery as for revision.

Le petit Chaperon rouge

With 133 views, this adaptation of the classic tale makes the most of the interactive format. Students can explore different versions of the story, compare narrative choices and question the structure of the tale. An ideal medium for working on narrative structure, archetypal characters and intertextuality.

Poésie Les Deux Escargots

Aimed at 9 to 11 year-olds, this adaptation of the Jacques Prévert poem offers a poetic reading path. Students explore the text in a non-linear way: each branch reveals one aspect of the poem — the vocabulary, the images, the rhythm. An elegant way to bring poetry into the digital world without betraying it.

Enquête au cœur de l'Odyssée

This story casts students as investigators inside Homer's Odyssey. They must find characters, identify episodes and draw on their knowledge of the work to solve the case. The interactive format turns the study of a canonical work into a piece of literary detective work.

Choisis ton style

Centred on drama, this story invites students to experiment with different registers and styles of dramatic writing. Each choice steers the text towards comedy, tragedy or drama, and students observe how the same event takes on a different colour depending on the style adopted.

Why Moiki EDU for language teaching?

The interactive story is a format naturally suited to the language classroom. It mobilises reading, writing and linguistic analysis in a single movement. Students who build a branching story work on narrative consistency, syntax, vocabulary and textual structure, often without realising it.

For teachers, Moiki EDU makes differentiated exercises possible: remediation paths offer personalised scaffolding, while advanced routes stretch the most confident students.
