• Homework p. 210

• Reading p.211-234

Discuss in small groups or with a partner:

• What does S-M-A-R-T stand for?

• How do we make an SLO specific and measurable? What do we need to include?

Which is inductive? Which is deductive?

Ss are given a task whichhelps them discovery

the rule.

Teacher explains the ruleand Ss make examples

following the rule.

How to Read a Teacher’s Mind

• I am going to ask you some questions.

• I want you to guess the answers to the questions.

• Watch me carefully. See if you can read my mind

How to Read a Teacher’s Mind

• Before we play the game again, read these questions and try to guess the rule.

Guiding questions:

• What kind of question is the teacher asking? Can you give some examples?

• What does the teacher often do when he asks a question?

• What is the answer when the teacher does that?

How to Read a Teacher’s Mind

• Discuss with your partner, what is the rule?

• Ask your partner some questions about yourself using the rule.

How did you find the rule?1. Many examples,

2. Teacher draws attention to important details by asking questions.

3. Students try to use the rule (or explain their guess about the rule)

4. T gives feedback.

5. Students try again.

6. (Repeat steps 3,4&5 if necessary)

7. Provide many chances to practice to master the new rule.

Sample Lesson:Present Perfect

• Think about the following:

• What makes this lesson inductive?

• How do the materials facilitate Ss self-investment and discovery?

• Get into groups of four

• Each group will get a set of cards

• You will only have 3 minutes

• Turn over a card and fill out the chart• EX: hop – hopped – hopped

• You’ll get 1 point for each correct word, and bonuses for each level you reach without any errors.

• Be careful – Mistakes will cost you points and a ship. If all your ships are destroyed, you lose.

Card Attack

Processing – Present Perfect

• How did teacher establish context of use?

• How did this prepare Students to learn the topic being taught?

• Could Teachers activate schema for the present perfect tense in Korean Students? Why or why not? If no, then what did the T activated?

Processing – Present Perfect

• What did the teacher initially assess?

• How did the teacher assess it? • Why did the teacher need to

assess this?

Processing – Present Perfect

• How did the teacher get the Students to discover the rules for the present prefect tense?

• How did the Teacher get the Students to focus on the form?

• How did the Teacher create a learning opportunity, without being directly involved?

Processing – Present Perfect

• Look at the lesson plan and label the missing stages in terms of the Productive Skills Framework: Encounter-Internalize-Fluency.

• Some steps may combine stages• E

• E/I

• I

• F

Processing

• This lesson looked like a squid:

• What were the two language chunks?

• What was the controlled practice for the first chunk?

• What was the practice for the second chunk?

• Why is Talkopoly not a fluency?

• Where in the lesson were inductive techniques used? How were these activities similar? Different?

Descriptive vs. Prescriptive Grammar

• Descriptive Grammar: Talks about how grammar is actually used by native speakers

• Prescriptive Grammar: Talks about grammar in terms of what is right and what is wrong.

• What kind of grammar do your Students need to know?

Guided Discovery vs.Collaborative Discovery

• The present perfect lesson uses guided discovery rather than collaborative discovery.

• Why was this lesson more appropriate for High School learners and adults rather than young learners (YL) or middle school Students?

• Meta-linguistic words

Using “who” and “which”

Which is more delicious samgyeopsal or salad?

Who is better Kara or Girls Generation?

Who is smarter the boy or the girl?

Which is more interesting Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings?

Which is stronger the lion or the mouse?

Directions: Use the sentences above as a guide and put the words in the blue box into the chart.

Collaborative Discovery

• How did this collaborative discovery activity differ from the guided discovery in the present perfect lesson?

• What age level of Students would this activity be appropriate for? Why?

• After the Students had finished the task what questions should I ask? Why?

Make Your Own Guided Discovery or Collaborative

Discovery Activity• A similar process is required to make a

collaborative discovery or guided discovery activity as writing an SLO. You need to…

• Select the grammar topic,• Fine-tune: What is, isn’t included, other

meanings, negative form, question, typical Ss problems

• Make example sentences and choose one as a representative,

• Decide on a situational context or text to teach the grammar form

• Analyse the form, meaning and use

Active vs. Passive Voice

• Make a collaborative discovery or guided discovery activity to help Ss learn how to use active and passive voice.

What I might do

• Generate 4-5 passive voice sample sentences e.g. (Hangeul was invented by Sejong)

• Generate 4-5 active voice sentences e.g. (Sejong invented Hangeul)

• Use enhanced input to draw Ss attn to TL

• Scramble the sentences up

• Ask Ss to separate the sentences into to columns - Blue and Red (see next slide)

What I might do• Ss cut and paste the sentences in

to the columns

• Ss drawn lines between sentences that mean the same thing

• Ss answer the following Qs:• What words are first in the blue

sentences? What words are second?

• What words are first in the red sentence? What words are second?

• Are the Blue words or Red words the DOERS?

• Are the Blue words or Red words THINGS?

• How are the underlined words different?

• Are there any other differences?

• What rule can you make?
