Teaching grammar with the four skills (How do I present grammar/four skills)
1. HOW DO I PRESENT A GRAMMAR STRUCTURE?
Grammar is sometimes defined as ‘the way words are put together to make correct
sentences.’ So in English the sentence I am a teacher is grammatical, whereas I are
a teacher is not. This is a good starting point but the definition needs to be
expanded to include all the aspects that the term Grammar covers and that we need
to teach.
First, it is not just a question of correctness. Grammatical forms nearly always carry
meaning: the meaning of a particular message in a communicative situation is created
by a combination of vocab and Grammar. We use grammatical items and
constructions to express, e.g., time (using tenses) or place (using prepositions)
or possibility (using modals or conditional clauses). It is often the meanings that
create problems for our ss and need careful teaching (for example when contrasting
present perfect simple with present perfect progressive).
Lesson Plan:
Act. 1: write on the board a
sentence e.g. I am from
Canada I am Canadian
act. 2: explain in front of class how we use this structure, DRAW A PERSON which
means the personal pronoun then I draw a plus sign + verb to be
e.g. o –o(person)+ verb to be
with this I write some examples then I explain how to change the sentences into
negative and interrogative act. 3 The students construct some sentences in oral form
following a model then they write some of them as example.
2. FOUR SKILLS
READING Effective language instructors show students how they can adjust their
reading behavior to deal with a variety of situations, types of input, and
reading purposes. They help students develop a set of reading
strategies and match appropriate strategies to each reading situation.
Some strategies are predicting, scanning ,skimming , intensive
reading.
Lesson plan:
Act. 1 : choose an article , ask to ss look at the picture , answer some
questions to make a prediction
Act. 2: Read the second paragraph and match the highlighter words with
the synonyms.
Act. 3 Read the article and underline the most important sentence for
paragraph.
Act. 4: Complete the sentences according the article.
SPEAKING Oral skills are learnt before written skills.
Structures are practiced in controlled conditions. L is a tool for
communicating meaning through use of function, vocabulary,
structures, discourse.
Lesson plan:
act. 1: Look and repeat the vocabulary
act 2: Practice on the sentences where is using the vocabulary and verb to
be
act. 3:the ss will choose a flag to use the dialogue as a model and practice
with his/her partner
e.g. A: Where are you from?
B: I’m from Italy
A: Are you Italian?
