OVERVIEW ABOUT GRAMMAR

WHAT IS GRAMMAR?

Page 4: W6 lecture notes

Definition of grammarGrammar may be defined as the rules of a language, governing the way in which words are put together to convey meaning in different contexts.

Grammar is generally a thought to be set of rules specifying the correct ordering of words at the sentence level

Grammar can be defined as the rules by which words change their forms and are combined in other senses

I. INTRODUCING GRAMMAR

Page 8: W6 lecture notes

Principles for teaching grammatical structures

• Teach structures implicitly: Give examples of structure.

-> Students discover the meaning.

Page 9: W6 lecture notes

Principles for teaching grammatical structures

• Present a structure orally the written form + explanation

Page 10: W6 lecture notes

Principles for teaching grammatical structures

• Give explanation, use visual aids and avoid the use of special terms.

Page 11: W6 lecture notes

Principles for teaching grammatical structures

• Link the form to meaning in the context.

• Give positive feedback and emphasize communication rather than just grammatical accuracy

Page 12: W6 lecture notes

Principles for teaching grammatical structures

• Go from controlled practice to freer communication

Page 13: W6 lecture notes

DIFFERENT WAYS OF PRESENTING

GRAMMATICAL STRUCTURES

Page 14: W6 lecture notes

What to focus on when presenting a new structure?

•Form•Usage•Meaning

Page 15: W6 lecture notes

The use of PPP, TTT and TBL in teaching grammar

• PPP approach (Presentation – Practice – Production): Individual language items (for example, the past continuous) are presented by the teacher practised in the form of spoken and written exercises (often pattern drills) used by the learners in less controlled speaking or writing activities

Page 16: W6 lecture notes

The use of PPP, TTT and TBL in teaching grammar

• TTT approach (Test-Teach-Test): production stage comes first and the learners are "thrown in at the deep end" and required to perform a particular task (a role play, for example) teacher deals with some of the grammatical or lexical problems that arose in the first stage learners are required either to perform the initial task again or to perform a similar task

Page 17: W6 lecture notes

The use of PPP, TTT and TBL in teaching grammar

• TBL approach (Task-based learning):–Pre-task activity: an introduction to

topic and task–Task cycle: Task > Planning > Report–Language Focus and Feedback

Two common approaches to

teach grammar

Deductive grammar teaching

Inductive grammar teaching

DIFFERENT WAYS OF PRESENTING GRAMMATICAL

STRUCTURES

Presenting grammatical structures

implicitly

Presenting grammatical structures

explicitly

Page 21: W6 lecture notes

Presenting grammatical structures implicitly

Ex: He opens the door.

-> The door is opened.Or The door is opened by him.

Page 22: W6 lecture notes

Presenting grammatical structures explicitly

Doing action

Receiving action

Page 23: W6 lecture notes

Discovering grammar

Page 24: W6 lecture notes

Self-direct discovery

DISCOVERING GRAMMAR

Teacher explanation

Guided discovery

Page 25: W6 lecture notes

1. Self- direct discovery • Example: Students decide they want to learn about reported speech. They go to the library or learning center and find out more. No help from the teachers.

Page 26: W6 lecture notes

2. Explanation• Example: You lecture about the

construction of conditional sentences.

Teacher directly explains about:+ How to use conditional sentences.+ Structure of conditional sentences in some.

Page 27: W6 lecture notes

3. Guided discovery• Example: Students discuss interpretation of timelines on the board and try to make example sentences for them. You intervence when answers seem elusive and at one point explain the difference between two tenses .

Free oral practice

Dialogues

Page 31: W6 lecture notes

Drills

A technique which emphasis on repeating structural pattern

through oral practice

Page 32: W6 lecture notes

Kinds of Drills

True sentences

Substitution drills

Repetition drills

Transformation drills

A, C

D, F

Page 33: W6 lecture notes

Repetition drills Ex:Teacher: It’s cold outside. Students: It’s cold outside. Teacher: It’s warm outside. Students: It’s warm outside.

The teacher models and the students repeat it.

1

Page 34: W6 lecture notes

Substitution drills Ex:Teacher: She is a worker.Teacher: doctorStudents: She is a doctor.

Students change one or some words while maintaining the same basic structure in response to a cue from the teacher.

Page 35: W6 lecture notes

3 Transformation drills Ex: Teacher: I like ice cream. NEGATIVEStudents: I don’t like ice cream. Teacher: I like ice cream. QUESTIONStudents: Do you like ice cream?Teacher: Peter gave me money. PASSIVEStudents: I was given money by Peter.

Students transform a sentence of one kind into another form based on information given.

Page 36: W6 lecture notes

4True

sentences

Students give real information in their answers

Ex:Teacher: What are you going to do after school?Students: I’m going to play football.Teacher: And tonight?Students: I’m going to watch TV.

EXERCISES

The exercises are designed to help students become more

familiar with the use of grammatical points in English.

Controlled practice or free oral practice

- Teacher gives topic and students use their own ideas to express their opinions.

- Dialogues are available from teacher and students practise.

Grammar games

Page 47: W6 lecture notes
Page 48: W6 lecture notes

Grammar games- Ask the right question- Putting sentences back together again- One question behind

Page 49: W6 lecture notes

Grammar games- Split sentences- Grammar quiz- Memory test- Picture dictation- Miming an action…

Page 50: W6 lecture notes

Procedures for teaching a new structure

+ Set the situation (use pictures, realia or create a situation)+ Give the model and ask the class to repeat in chorus+ Ask individual students to repeat the model sentence+ Write the sentence on the board+ Elicit the form, usage and meaning of the structure+ Contrast structures if necessary+ Ask the class to copy+ Give other situations and ask ss to give examples+ Give ss activities for practising
