  1. How can we teach English? some advice

  2. Grammar - Vocabulary • First step: motivation • introduction: pupils guess the topic: rebus, riddle, crossword puzzle (use my website : ‘The Puzzlemaker’), funny cartoon, fascinating picture (why no art?), song, … • ‘spontaneous’ conversation adapted to the pupils’ initial situation – ‘natural’ language, not suited for large classes • ‘test yourself’ : scores (computer-based – hot potatoes or not) • link with reality: when do we need this vocabulary or grammar? / formation objective (language function)

  3. Development • presentation : first oral approach (pictures,CD,T…) then examples / model sentences are gathered, analysed + rules ‘discovered’ (grammar, stress, pronunciation, spelling) - either on BB or on transparency - either by pupils or by teacher

  4. Development • Integration exercises are done -either in the traditional way or by integrating the Internet – hot potatoes -variation!! (in pairs, individually, …) exercises are corrected - either in class (BB or transparency) - or pupils correct themselves (key)

  5. Evaluation • Transfer exercises • more ‘free practice’: pupils are using the newly learned vocabulary or grammar : skeleton dialogue, role play, memory game, quizzes, … • pupils’ initial situation is all important here! (age, level, number, …) • T assesses the results
