Poster Presentation • Choose on of the Methods we have studied that interests • What is significant about the method? • Why did you pick it? • How will you use it in your future teaching? • I will grade both the visual presentation of the poster and your 3 minute presentation.
Discuss Homework • Take out answers forCh 10discuss Qs on p. 114 (TM) Qs 4-5, 7
Donald Freeman’s Silent Way Lesson • Why is this lesson less rigid (weak) than the first we watched? • How are the rods used
Make Your Own Words • Take three or four cards and write your own words on them • Exchange cards with a different group • First try to elicit the word • Then use a CCQ technique to check the other Ss understanding.
Concept/Comprehension Check Questions (CCQs) • Positive/Negative Check Qs • Discrimination Check Qs • Demonstration Check Qs
Using Rods • Open the TESOL Methods book to p. 50 • Look at the section called “Activities” follow the directions in the book and think about how you would use rods to teach “Long/short, comparatives and superlatives” • Switch groups and practice teaching using rods

Design your own Desuggestopedic Cycle • Look at the text that will be your reading concert. • Discuss the language in the text • How will you teach it to the Ss?
Micro-Teaching • 20-25 min lessons • 10-15 min of group discussion and feedback • Use feedback to help you write reflective essay #2
You will teach in groupsNOT to whole class • I will observe both groups. I will look for the following: • 1. Student incorporates technique and principles of the method in the activity. • 2. Procedural steps are followed. • 3. Teacher shows an understanding of the activity, method, principles and technique. • 4. Activity demonstrates creative input on the part of the teacher. • 5. Activity is appropriate for young learners. • 6. Instructions are clear and comprehensible. • 7. Teachers voice is at an appropriate volume and sufficiently clear. • 8. Activity is between 5 and 10 minutes in length. • 9. Teacher is organized.
Methods to Use • All that we have studied • CLT, TBL, DM, Silent Way, Desuggestopedia, ALM, TPRS, MI • If you want to incorporate techniques from methods we haven’t studied you may, but please discuss it with me, so I can be sure you understand the method and principles • No GTM because it won’t help you get your TEE
Look at the list of language topics • With your group brainstorm activities that you could do for those items • Decide which method those activities belong to based on their principles, techniques and procedures. • Pick a different language point to teach from others in your group.
