    4. What is learning?

    6. At the Curriculum Level

    7. Express Class: add-on strategy

    8. Teaching strategy used: Teacher read aloud, followed by comprehension worksheets Purposes: enrich students’ vocabulary; arouse students’ interest in the topic; cultivate interest in reading; practise reading skill; increase students’ knowledge of the world (reading to learn)

    9. Implications of Differentiation Strategy Concept of core/non-core ? compulsory/ optional Less teaching time will be spent on non-core elements than core elements Worksheets & supplementary exercise will be adapted accordingly Less weighting in test/exam on non-core elements Core elements: higher expectations in test/exam

    10. Non-express Class: differentiation strategy

    15. Why should teachers concern about the number of words taught in each unit?

    16. How to choose active vocabulary

    17. How to choose active vocabulary?

    18. Reminders on using outcome-based approach to choose active vocabulary

    19. At the Panel Level: Common Lesson Preparation Time Use the framework to work out the scheme of work (from P1-6) Assessment policy Assign certain % to cater for average & low achievers More weighing on core elements than on non-core elements

    20. Theoretical Approaches for Grammar Teaching

    21. Curriculum Guide (2004) Inductive/Discovery Approach “According to the age of the learners and their cognitive development, teachers may decide to introduce a small number of useful and not overly complex grammar rules and terms to help them develop a conscious understanding of the language forms they are using…” (continued)

    22. “…It is important from time to time that learners are given an opportunity to discover language patterns and rules for themselves.” (p. 163) Curriculum Guide (2004) on Inductive/Discovery Approach

    23. Implication on Teaching and Learning Teaching: Grammar rules Grammar terms Learning: Learners’ needs Learning styles

    24. At the Classroom Level P.3 Classes, teaching focus (simple past tense and time markers) Express & Non-express class: a mix of both approaches, a matter of emphasis Discovery approach Vs discovery approach Express Class: More inductive/discovery approach than deductive approach Non-express Class: More deductive approach than inductive approach
