discussing the reasons for their assessment,many mentioned intelligibility.However,the nonnative teachers seemed more disturbed by infringements of common grammar rules;in discussion,they referred frequently to basic mistakes.They seemed most upset by the fact that learners continued to break rules which had been taught earlier and which they should therefore have mastered.Ways to teach grammar:Charts and graphsUsing objects(necklace,purse,)Maps and simple drawingDialoguesWritten textsA story-based grammar teachingMeaning drillsTom went shopping.First he went to the bakers and bought some bread.Then he crossed the road to the post office and bought some stamps.Then he went next door to the newsagents and bought a magazine.Then he crossed the road again and had a cup of coffee in a caf.When he went to pay,he discovered he didnt have his wallet with his money in it.Now hes wonder-ing where he left it.Rose is riding in the ray.Birds is singing on her way.Fish is swimming in the bay.Deer is coming in the play.Grass is nodding by the lake.Rose is having a good day.How to teach grammarsummary:Grammatical structures will become internalized only if the learners are placed in a situation in which they need to use the structure for communicative purpose.Grammar teaching principles:Embedded in meaningful,communicative contexts;Contribute positively to communicative goals;Promote accuracy within fluent,communicative language;Responding to errors:He has a long hair.1.No.(no explanation)2.He has long hair.(repeat and correct)3.No article.(explanation)4.No.Anyone?(Iook for peer correction)5.He has.?6.He has a long hair.Just one?Like this?draw a bald man with one long hair7.A long hair s just one sngle har,like you find n your soup.For the har on your head you wouldnt use an artcle:He has long hair.(reactive teaching)8.Oh,he has long har,has he?(reformulation)9.Teacher says nothing but writes down error for future reference.英语教学之:Teaching vocabularyHow important is vocabulary?Without grammar very little can be conveyed;without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed.(David Wilkins)What does it mean to know a word?FormMeaningUseHow to teach vocabulary:First language translation can be given:By performing actionsBy showing objectsBy showing pictures or diagramsBy defining in the first language(translation)By defining in the second languageBy providing language context cluesWord families:RootAffixes Prefixes SuffixesInflexions(-ed,ing,etc.)PlayRe+playPlay+er,play+fulUnderstands,understanding,understood,understandable,misunderstand,misunderstoodThe limitations of teaching:Words are complex items Word knowledge needs to be developed in range of waysTeaching has limited effectsTeaching can usefully deal with only a limited amount of information at a timeToo much confuses For these reasons:We should expect only limited learning from single meetings with a word.We should bear this in mind when we plan or carry out those meetings.We should not spend too much time on vocabulary teaching.Limited effects:There should be repeated opportunitiesfor increasingly spaced retrieval of each word.Later meetings with a word are moreimportant than the initial presentationand teaching may be more useful then.What makes a word difficult?Pronunciation(difficult to pronounce,difficult to learn)Spelling(sound-spelling mismatches are difficult to learn)Length and complexityGrammar(love swimming or love to swim)Meaning(make vs do)1.I hope after biggening English studing I shell not have a free time at all.2.Id like to spend a couple of week somewhere on a peopleless island.3.I like watching flowers and inhaling their lovely smell.What kind of mistakes do learners make?What kind of mistakes do learners make?1.Form-related errors.2.(1)Mis-selection:She was hungry(angry)with me.(2)Mis-formations

learningmotivate learningTeaching wordsOnly high frequency vocabulary(the first 2000 words and the AWL)and vocabulary learning strategies should be systematically taught.Teachers should know where the learners are in their knowledge of these英语教学之:Teaching ListeningTypes of listeningListening for gistListening for specific informationListening in detailListening for gist:.When we want to know the general idea of what is being said,as well as who is speaking to whom and why,and how successful they are in communicating their point.Listening for specific information.when we dont need to understandeverything,but only a very specific part.For example,when we are in the airport,we are interested in hearing news about one particular flight.Listening in detailFor example,when we need to find errors or determine differences between one passage and another.Inferential listening when we wish to know how the speaker feels.Different sources of listeningTeacher talkStudent

etc)Reconstructing the listening text Gap-fill Story tellingDictationis one common approach in class.Read the passage at full speed.The studentslisten only.Read the passage in chunks,leaving time forthe students to write.Allow a few minutes for the students to checkindividually.Read the passage again at full speed.Allow a few minutes for students to check.Give feedback to the whole class(show the passage)Types of listeningIntensive listeningSelective listeningInteractive listeningIntensive listeningTo listen for precise sounds,words,phrases,grammatical units.One typical task is dictation.Listening cloze Error identificationSelective listeningEncourage learners to approach genuine spoken texts by focusing on specific information rather than trying to understand and recall everything.Pre-listening portion is an important aspect of selective listening.Becoming a best teacher of listening Develop materials-including your stories(on family,places,childhood,hobbies,etc).Decide:who for?Level?Length?Technology?Worksheets?Getting feedback?Evaluate the results.Learners should be given opportunities to progressively structure their listening by listening to a text several times and by working through increasingly challenging listening tasks.The task should include opportunities for learners to play an active role in their own learning.Content should be personalised.Quality of recordings:Is the recording clear?Will background noise affect comprehension?Speed:Do the speakers talk too fast for my students?Number of speakers:Are there many voices,potentially causing confusion?Accent:Is the accent familiar?Is it comprehensible?Make a poster of listening strategies.Put it on the classroom wall.Refer to it before and after the students listen in class and discuss their strategies.Introduce listening Strategies:PredictingInferensingMonitoringClarifyingRespondingEvaluating英语教学之:Teaching ReadingWhy do we

information from the printed page.2.Reading is also interactive in the sense that many skills work together in the process.1.To add information and reasons:Also,In addition,Besides,Moreover2.To explain,give reasons:Actually,Certainly,For example,In fact,That is3.To show cause and effect:As a result,Then,Therefore,Thus4.To summarize:In all,In a word,In short5.To show
