    The document discusses the covert approach to teaching grammar, where teachers get students to use grammatical structures without explicitly teaching rules, focusing instead on meaningful activities where students practice structures implicitly through tasks like comparing texts or asking classmates questions. Errors are tolerated as students focus on communicating rather than rules. Examples provided are comparing different text genres to learn language functions and an information gap activity where students ask each other questions to practice structures.
