Which method did we use?
Trainer: Brigitte Köper, Nürnberg www.koeper-erwachsenenbildung.de
Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00
Deductive method = teacher presents the rules
PPP = presentation, production, practice
Activity 2:
I am eating spaghetti
Method: Miming
Evaluation
1. Who used the new structure?
2. Was the use of the new grammar structure compulsory?
3. Do students need to know the grammar structure before the activity?
4. What must follow after the activity?
5. Who is going to find out and explain the rule?
Trainer: Brigitte Köper, Nürnberg www.koeper-erwachsenenbildung.de
Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00
Which method did we use?
I am eating spaghetti
inductive method = students find the rules for themselves by
using the new structure in a context in which the new
grammar structure is the only possible structure
Find out the rules by
SOS Sammeln Ordnen Strukturieren

However, there are students who prefer the traditional approach.
So what should we do?
Take the best of both worlds
See Go for it! A1 p 70 and p 76
