By now it is clear that students have very different approaches to learning and have distinct preferences and interests. A project on animals can ensure all are satisfied. Students can choose to work independently or with a partner(s) Get students to choose an animal, or the creative ones can create a new one! Students choose whether to create a wall display, a book or a presentation on their animal Their work can include illustrations, their own or ones they find. Their project can be a factual description about the animal including information found in books, the internet etc or it can be a story about the animal. It could also be a poster calling for conservation of a particular species. Give a time limit – say 2 or 3 lessons for them to prepare their work and then it can either be displayed, shared or presented Questions for discussion and practical tasks What are the key objectives of teaching a foreign language to young learners? Look at tables 1, 2, 3 and say how the children of different age groups learn and develop. Speak on characteristics, implications and needs. Specify the following words and word combinations: chunks of language; chants; motor skills; wall display; mini-project. To the children of what age group would you like to give classes in a foreign language and why? Lecture 2 Ways children learn Children are different from adults in many aspects. -Children from 5 to 12 are more acquirers than learners. What is acquisition? Language acquisition is universal, natural, doesn’t require instruction. Language acquisition occurs in response to a child’s environment and as a result of a biological predisposition. Acquisition takes place subconsciously. Learning takes place consciously. It is helped greatly by error correction and presentation of explicit rules. -When a young child learns another language, he approaches it in the same way as when he learns the first language. Children who can already read in L1, learn reading English quite quickly. -Children are able to understand the meaning without understanding particular words. If teachers speak only English in the lessons, pupils usually have no problems with understanding the meaning of the passage in general. Therefore it is extremely important for teachers to use gestures, intonation, facial expressions, etc. Children appreciate everything what is concrete, what they really can see and touch. If teachers speak about something it is advantageous to use visual aids. -Children are creative. Although their vocabulary is quite limited, it is enough for them to be able to communicate. Pupils do not have problems to ask and answer set phrases but it is much more difficult for them to construct sentences in unpredictable situations. Therefore games are so important and useful. If a teacher prepares games (activities) where children are made to communicate, he/she creates such unpredictable moments when children have to use their vocabulary and grammar as much as it is possible. It does not matter at all that children make mistakes. What is important is the fact that they have to be creative in the foreign language they learn, which naturally leads to the development of their communicative skills. -The imitative ability of young children is great. They experience fewer difficulties in the assimilation of English pronunciation than adults -The length of time a child can concentrate on one activity varies from child to child. Some young children can concentrate for about 5 minutes, others for very much longer periods of up to 15 minutes. It is better to change an activity before children lose interest. -Children find it easier to learn one concept at a time. When a page in a book presents children with a confusing amount of material, it is better to take one item from the page and deal with it. -Children learn more easily when they know what to expect in a lesson and what the teacher expects of them. For this reason it is helpful to use the same lesson framework for each lesson. The end of the lesson the teacher uses to say some words of praise and comment on their participation. -It is impossible for children to learn everything perfectly in each lesson. For this reason part of every lesson should consist of going over previous work to help children consolidate the language. жүктеу/скачать 167,52 Kb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
