Résumé:This study is based on research data aimed to describe the writing process of 8-11 year-old pupils (cycle 3). For that purpose we collected a corpus of over a hundred extra-curricular texts: tales, autobiographical stories, diaries, poems, riddles, jokes, terms of mathematical problems … and even a play. Those texts which were collected with the pupils’ consent and were used as bases to a study of the different procedures involved in (re)reading and rewriting. In this article, we will only present a part of a much wider analysis of the variations and deletions that were listed and of the metalinguistic reflection at work in those texts. We will focus on a few spelling and composition problems. Our research work is situated in the domain of linguistics and psycholinguistics and is therefore intended to contribute to the reflection that was set up over the past few years and deals with a didactics of writing that would take into account those original extra-curricular productions and promote their emergence or even their regular practice
