- Summary:
-
This book includes 85 ideas for the teaching of grammar, contributed by teachers of English as a Second Language from varied countries. The ideas are organized in 10 sections that include specific aspects of grammar and grammar topics at the discourse level. These include: noun phrases and clauses (adjectives and nouns, articles, subject-verb agreement); relative clauses; tenses (present, past, present perfect, past perfect, conditionals, tense sequence, general tenses); modal verbs; verb complements; passive voice and ergative verbs; adverbs and adverbial clauses; questions and answers; general purpose grammar activities; and editing and revision activities. Each idea is described briefly, with information given about appropriate proficiency level(s), specific aims, class time requirements, preparation time, needed resources, procedures, and caveats and options. While the contributions are diverse in the areas of grammar addressed and the specific teaching techniques advocated, it is felt that all reflect a "situated process" perspective on language education. An introductory section describes this approach to grammar learning and teaching. (MSE)
