01 Assignment

Write about the following and share with someone in your FB or at your school. FOR SUBMISSION TO PRC
1. Watch the Deb Roy TED talk (0:00 -11:00min). When might “error correction” be taking place and how?

2. Watch the entire video by Dr Limbacher-Riebold. How do we process acquisition and learning differently?

3. Do you teach what you believe? What do you believe about Communicative Language Learning and student success in learning a language?

4. Choose a grammar point and list three contexts for a narrative story that requires the use of that grammar point.

5. Choose only one of those and create the chart that will scaffold your students.

You can do it!

1.Readiness to adapt the stimulus and through repetition just like in Pavlov theory.
2.It occurs naturally and through maturity.
3.Yes, based on the needs of my students. For me, this kind of approach must be taught as enrichment,
enhancement in connection to Syntax.
4.Grammar Point, "More Better”. 1.It is more better than your book. 2. Its contents are more better
than other books. 3. These are more better read by the majority.
5.It is more better than your book. I can’t just draw or insert columns and rows here to answer
completely #5 question.
 01 Checklist and scaffolding

For the Deb Roy TED talk you can use the “turn on transcripts” feature. The answer is close to the time that the graph is projected. It shows how the caregiver’s language
changes.

The Limbacher-Reibold video is just 2 minutes long. There are titles throughout.

It can be surprising once we take a moment to find out what we believe vs the research. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we don’t. Knowing this and why, is powerful.

Enjoy making a story!

Thank you for your engagement and enthusiasm. 

One thing I have learned about teaching grammar communicatively is…
- One thing that I have learned about teaching grammar communicatively is the ability to speak language with linguistic proficiency and top use the language
appropriately in different social contexts.

One thing I have learned about myself as a teacher is…

In short, I’ve learned that I’m thoughtful, caring person who brings tremendous energy and knowledge to my students nearly everyday in hopes that in some way I will
leave them better off at the end of a class than they were at the beginning.

One thing that surprised me is…

- I started teaching in 2018 as a high school teacher handling mixed subjects and what surprised me the most about them was their lack of intellectual skills. Most
students always have a poor comprehensive skills, even in reading and writing they does fail. At their age I can’t imagine how they got this stage of education with out
even know sometimes the words my or may? How surprising isn’t it? But as a teacher you need to be flexible to your students and be patience in teaching them
something meaningful.

One thing that will impact my teaching is…

- The thing that will impact my teaching is being flexible in any situations, lots of students can’t afford their needs sometimes others can. There are sometimes that not
polite and stubborn. Overall they have their own differences and uniqueness.
