Teaching English in the Priy Classroom | Page 98

always 71 I give priority to the correction of grammatical errors 72 rarely never When students do not understand something, I try to explain it to them using pictures, synonyms or facial expressions 74 Some times I give priority to the correction of errors which make communication ambiguous 73 usually The questions I ask students aim at checking how well they have comprehended something and, therefore, their answer is known to me in advance I ask students to repeat chorally new words or phrases in order to learn them 75 76 During the lesson, students are given the chance not only to answer but also to generate questions 77 When students work in groups or pairs, their roles are cooperative rather than competitive (i.e. they work together in order to find a common solution rather than to win their partner ) 78 There is informal interaction in English during the lesson (i.e. greetings, discussions about health or the weather are conducted in English) Songs, rhymes or games are part of my teaching 79 80 I give students spelling exercises Reminder: If you provide students with hand outs, please make a copy of a hand out and attach it to the questionnaire before sending it.
