Using prompts for practice



Using picture prompts; Using mimes or gestures as prompts; Using information sheet as prompts; Using key phrase or key words as prompts; Using created situations;
The most frequently used drills ●Substitution drills : The students substitute a part in a structure so that they get to know how that part functions in a sentence .

teaches in an isolated way.
little
attention is paid to meaning, practice is often mechanical
“teacher
students’ confidence in exams.
talk” is more than “students talk”
● Children do not need to learn grammar rules when they acquire their first language, so they do not need them either when learning a foreign language.
Demerits
· limit students' thought; · pay attention to mechanical practice excessively; · neglect the specific social circumstance;
neglect the accuracy of grammar;
Comparison
Mechanical Practice
· Be able to remember the structures clearly; · high accuracy of structure;
Meaningful Practice
Merits
· enhance students' interest; · students can use it flexible;
Inductive Method
Contextual; Meaningful; More student’s involvement
Time-consumption
Without explicit explanations
Comparison
The deductive method: Starts with the presentation of a rule and is followed by examples in which the rule is applied. The inductive method: Starts with some examples from which a rule is inferred .

Thank you for your listening!
The deductive method
Teaching procedure:

Teacher presents the rule of the structure on the board Teacher’s explanation of the rule (in student’s native language Student’s practice application of the rules


Specific structure—the English grammar structure that will be learnt
Comparison
The inductive method The guided discovery method
Similaritiy
Students are induced to discover rules by themselves,that is to say, students are main part ,teacher is auxiliary The teacher tries to say nothing except when necessary The process of the discovery is carefully guided and assisted by the teacher

The important role of grammar Grammar presentation:
•The deductive method; •The inductive method; •The guided discovery method;
● Making students aware of grammatical information is one of the teaching objectives, allowing students opportunities for using the language is just as important. ● If students get enough chance to practise using a foreign language,they do not need to learn grammar.
The inductive method
Teaching procedure:



more examples authentic language presentation (give grammar examples) let students observe, analyze and compare examples help students induce grammar rules without any explicit explanation
The guided discovery method

Contextualize (examples)—consider sth together with the situation that relate to it,rather than alone
illustrating—to explain/to demonstrate
Difference
Questions:
● What is practice? ● What kind of practice is most effective? why?
Mechanical practice

Definition :A process in which learners receive the new language knowledge by means of imitation, repetition, memorization, substitution drills .
●Transformation drills : Changing a given structure in a way so that they are exposed to another similar structure .
Meaningful Practice

Definition : The focus is on the production, comprehension, or exchange of meaning through the students 'keep an eye on'the newly learned structures are used in the process .
