Teaching Grammar To Young Learners

Extractions: var javascript_version = 1.0; Teaching grammar to young learners People are grammatical animals. By the age of three, whatever our mother tongue is, we all get our grammar 90% correct. Even when we make mistakes like 'Don't giggle me' or 'I seed the dog,' we're applying previously encountered grammar rules to newly acquired vocabulary. We don't, for instance, say 'I seed' instead of 'I saw' because we've heard our mother or father say it, we say it because we're extending a grammatical rule which we know works well with other verbs. From a very young age, we are all equipped to learn to use grammar with ease in our mother tongue. Why then should we find it difficult in a second language? In a sense, teachers of young learners have a considerable advantage over teachers of adults. Pupils are at a highly receptive age when everything is of interest to them, when nothing seems impossible, when they are at their most retentive. How do we teach grammar to young learners? Here are some suggestions.

Teaching Grammar
teaching grammar. grammar is and rules. They teach grammar by explaining the forms and rules and then drilling students on them.
http://www.nclrc.org/essentials/grammar/grindex.htm

Extractions: Teaching Grammar Grammar is central to the teaching and learning of languages. It is also one of the more difficult aspects of language to teach well. Many people, including language teachers, hear the word "grammar" and think of a fixed set of word forms and rules of usage. They associate "good" grammar with the prestige forms of the language, such as those used in writing and in formal oral presentations, and "bad" or "no" grammar with the language used in everyday conversation or used by speakers of nonprestige forms. Language teachers who adopt this definition focus on grammar as a set of forms and rules. They teach grammar by explaining the forms and rules and then drilling students on them. This results in bored, disaffected students who can produce correct forms on exercises and tests, but consistently make errors when they try to use the language in context. Other language teachers, influenced by recent theoretical work on the difference between language learning and language acquisition, tend not to teach grammar at all. Believing that children acquire their first language without overt grammar instruction, they expect students to learn their second language the same way. They assume that students will absorb grammar rules as they hear, read, and use the language in communication activities. This approach does not allow students to use one of the major tools they have as learners: their active understanding of what grammar is and how it works in the language they already know.
Goals And Techniques For Teaching Grammar
Instructors therefore teach grammar forms and structures in relation to meaning and use for the specific communication tasks that students need to complete.
http://www.nclrc.org/essentials/grammar/goalsgram.htm

Extractions: Teaching Grammar Goals and Techniques for Teaching Grammar The goal of grammar instruction is to enable students to carry out their communication purposes. This goal has three implications: Adult students appreciate and benefit from direct instruction that allows them to apply critical thinking skills to language learning. Instructors can take advantage of this by providing explanations that give students a descriptive understanding (declarative knowledge) of each point of grammar. Teach the grammar point in the target language or the students' first language or both. The goal is to facilitate understanding. Limit the time you devote to grammar explanations to 10 minutes, especially for lower level students whose ability to sustain attention can be limited. Present grammar points in written and oral ways to address the needs of students with different learning styles.

Extractions: In 91, I took the first addition to Nicaragua and left it there for the new EFL teachers at the university where I worked. I have two copiesone at home and the other in the office. If the second edition is an improvement then it should be on your desk if you are in the field and at all interested in improving your teaching. I used this book in (of all things) a course on teaching English grammar. Everything you could possibly want to know seems to be covered. During the class and in conjunction with this book, I became acquainted with transformational grammar for the first time. I think "TG" was an unnecessary trauma that didnt improve my understanding of the subject or give me an insight on how to teach English grammar to my students. The book does have some useful teaching suggestions which make up for the the "TG" confusion. In the end, Id say this is a good reference book but a dull textbook.

Grammar And Its Teaching: Challenging The Myths
grammar Its teaching Challenging the Myths. ERIC Identifier memorizing rules. Such activities can be boring and do not necessarily teach grammar.
http://www.vtaide.com/png/ERIC/Grammar.htm

Extractions: Grammar is often misunderstood in the language teaching field. The misconception lies in the view that grammar is a collection of arbitrary rules about static structures in the language. Further questionable claims are that the structures do not have to be taught, learners will acquire them on their own, or if the structures are taught, the lessons that ensue will be boring. Consequently, communicative and proficiency-based teaching approaches sometimes unduly limit grammar instruction. Of the many claims about grammar that deserve to be called myths, this digest will challenge ten. It is true that some learners acquire second language grammar naturally without instruction. For example, there are immigrants to the United States who acquire proficiency in English on their own. This is especially true of young immigrants. However, this is not true for all learners. Among the same immigrant groups are learners who may achieve a degree of proficiency, but whose English is far from accurate. A more important question may be whether it is possible with instruction to help learners who cannot achieve accuracy in English on their own. With regard to whether instruction can help learners acquire grammar they would not have learned on their own, some research, although not unequivocal, points to the value of form-focused instruction to improve learners' accuracy over what normally transpires when there is no focus on form (see Larsen-Freeman, 1995).

For those of you that have found in the past that teaching grammar to your students is a chore, let your students teach it for you. This site is dedicated to giving teachers a lesson that will not only engage your students, but also teach them a thing or two about grammar rules. The students will be guided through the process using a WebQuest to find resources on grammar rules and how to teach those rules to the class. Lesson Overview During this lesson the students will compile a list of 10 common grammar rules using resource sites provided on the WebQuest. Once the students finish their list, they will be asked to pick one to present to the class. The students are expected to develop a lesson plan that they will teach to the class. They will also be asked to provide a quiz that they will administer to the class. The objective is to have the students recall these grammar rules, so they can identify and apply them in everyday writing situations.

EMAIL this page to a friend Weaver shows her growth as a teacher and researcher by bringing new insight and applications to her beliefs. A good book for all teachers who have their students write. Writing Teacher More than fifteen years ago, Constance Weaver's Grammar for Teachers (NCTE, 1979) broke new ground by responding to widespread concern about the place of grammar in the curriculum. Suggesting that teachers need to know key aspects of grammar in order to teach writing more effectively, Weaver also argued that students need to be guided in learning and applying grammatical concepts as they revise and edit their writing. Attention to sentence structure and mechanics during the process of writing would result in better products. With Teaching Grammar in Context , Weaver extends her philosophy by offering teachers a rationale and practical ideas for teaching grammar not in isolation but in the context of writing. She begins by introducing some common meanings of "grammar" and provides a historical overview of traditional reasons for teaching grammar as a school subject. After examining those reasons, she questions them, citing decades of research which suggests that grammar taught in isolation has little, if any, effect on most students' writing.

In Lessons to Share , Connie Weaver's promised sequel, she focuses on the practical, offering valuable "lessons" from educators at all levels. The first section of the book addresses the learning and teaching of grammar, setting the stage for subsequent sections. The purpose behind the article on how language is learned is to help readers understand that babies and preschoolers acquire the grammar of their language without direct instruction and that language continues to develop indirectly during children's school years. Connie's article on teaching grammar in the context of writing articulates other aspects of the rationale that underlies this book: teaching grammar in the context of its use.

Grammar
Joseph Joubert said, To teach is to learn twice. Firmly believing this maxim, I to their class a fifteen minute lesson in a particular aspect of grammar.
http://www.sunynassau.edu/users/cohenl1/Teaching/STUDENTS TEACHING GRAMMAR.htm

Extractions: Kathleen Shaw Joseph Joubert said, "To teach is to learn twice." Firmly believing this maxim, I decided to give my English Composition 101 students the assignment of presenting to their class a fifteen minute lesson in a particular aspect of grammar. This was at a time in the semester (around the midpoint) when they should have integrated that particular grammatical point in their writing, having heard the rules from me and having seen the rules illustrated in their grammar books. Now the question was: Could they explain grammar to someone else? First I paired them. This gave them the security of knowing that they wouldn't be alone when explaining the grammatical point to the class. I chose the pairs arbitrarily, having long since given up the belief that I could choose the perfect pairing (such as one weak student with one strong student, or one vocal one with a quiet one). Next, I assigned each pair a topic with which they should have been familiar, like parallelism, dangling modifiers, or pronoun reference. I gave them a copy of the rules, one of which was that they must research the topic in their notes, in their grammar books we use in class, and in one other grammar book chosen from the library. But the part that got the strongest reaction was that they would have to choose their medium of instruction: handouts, transparencies for the overhead, a poster with the lesson clearly illustrated, a game they would devise in which parts of the class would compete with each other in demonstrating their mastery of the grammatical point, a video produced by them in which the lesson is explained, or anything else that they could come up to arouse interest so that the group would never forget the aspect of grammar that they presented.

Jeanette's Grammar Article 1
In my opinion, there is no debate as to whether or not it is necessary to teach grammar formal instruction is necessary. I say
http://www.developingteachers.com/articles_tchtraining/gramm1_jeanette.htm

Extractions: As so much has been written about grammar we could be forgiven if we admitted to confusion. Each person whether a learner or a teacher has an opinion. Likewise different styles of teaching equate to the varying opinions on how it should be taught, if indeed it should or can be taught. So two questions with very open answers, which I will attempt to reply to in this paper. Firstly, I will look at what grammar is considered to be from the learners perspective and that of the teacher, including my opinion. Then I will answer second question looking at how grammar is being taught today, focusing on it's usefulness for the learner and my experience. So then what is grammar ? When I asked a learner recently, the reply was a rule. He then went on to comment, it is so because it helps him construct a sentence, referring to his means to communicate (either spoken or written). Arguably the learner in general could just communicate using words but without a context or shared knowledge his words would fail to have meaning. Therefore grammar acts as his tool to create meaning. But grammar alone fails to create meaning, other elements are also necessary.

Both Sanctobin (`Pour une grammaire de l emploi de la langue en français langue étrangère ) and Hawkins and Towell (`Why teach grammar? ) provide well
http://www.utpjournals.com/product/cmlr/554/Teaching2.html

Extractions: This is not to say that the type of work done by Feuillard, Brulard, Thatcher, and Mailhac is to be rejected out of hand; there is an acute need for a constant revision of grammar teaching practices at all levels. However, it is no longer acceptable for grammarians to advocate a new approach to grammar in general or a grammatical point in particular without having first assessed the classroom viability of such an approach or determined whether the learners to be targeted are ready to acquire the point in question. The pedagogical suggestions made by the four authors may well be good ones, but no proof to this effect is ultimately offered. No mention is made of positive results obtained when the proposed approaches were used, of the generalizability of the approaches advocated, or of evidence from the fields of SLA or language pedagogy that would suggest that these approaches would achieve significantly better results than any others. Generally speaking, this book fails to make a significant contribution to the current discussion of the teaching of grammar, largely because it does not meet the criteria for success established in the opening article. Perhaps more careful editing and a clearer statement of purpose at the outset would have led the participating authors to produce a more cohesive and ultimately more valuable collection of papers.
