Practice Making CCQs • Write three CCQs for each of the words that I am eliciting & pre-teaching in this lesson • One negative or positive check question • One discrimination check question • One demonstration check question
Processing • How did the T activate schema? How was it done inductively and what kind of questions were used to facilitate this? • How did the T check Ss background knowledge? What kind of questions were used to facilitate this? • How did the T pre-teach and check the new vocab that he either elicited or gave the Ss? What kind of questions were used to facilitate this? • Why is using some kind of vocabulary assessment activity important in large classes? Why are CCQs not enough?
Processing • What did the first reading activity assess? Why was it appropriate for low level Ss and reluctant readers? • Why did the T give the questions to be used in the Typhoon Game to the Ss before he had the Ss play the Typhoon game? • If the worksheet with the nine questions already assessed Ss comprehension of the text, why does the T still have the Ss play the Typhoon game?

Grellet’s Seven Assumptions • Provide students with whole texts • Start with global understanding and move towards detailed understanding. • Use authentic texts whenever possible and adjust the difficulty of the activity, not the text. • Integrate reading with the other three skills. • Reinforce reading as an active skill. • Provide an assortment of flexible and varied activities that are suited to the texts and the reasons for reading them. • Clearly define the aim for each activity, and make a clear distinction between teaching and testing.
Holidays in the Fall • Left over issue: • How do we teach the Holiday in the Fall lesson to a different group of Ss. For example how would I have taught this same reading text to a group of Ss in Ilsan in which the class had two native speakers? Could I have used the same lesson plan and materials? Why or why not?
