1^st reference

According to the web page elc-schools.com there are four reasons why learning English is so important: “1. English is the Language of International Communication.  2. English is the Language Business. 3. Speaking English gives you Access to a World of entertainment and 4. Learning English gives you Access to more of the Internet.”

  

Looking at a Deductive Approach to Teaching Grammar, (based on David Nunan, Practical English Language Teaching)

Deductive teaching involves drawing the learner´s attention to grammar rules or principles and then getting the students to apply this practice, or by presenting a grammar chart and then practicing.

A clear explanation I present the following chartChart

Possessive Pronouns: mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs Possessive                         Possessive            Adjectives                            Pronouns My                                        mine Your                                     yours Her                                       hers His                                        his Our                                       ours Their                                     theirs A possessive adjective is used in front of a noun:  my book A possessive pronoun is used alone, without a noun following it: this is mine Exercise: Complete the sentences. Use possessive pronouns or possessive adjectives. 1.    I own this book. The book is __________. It is ___________ book. 2.    They own these books. The books are ______________. They are __________ books. 3.    We own those books. The books are ____________. They are ___________ books.

Looking at an Inductive Approach makes use of students noticing.

Use the rule Study the inductive exercise below. What makes it inductive?

Example:

What´s the rule? 1.    Look at the sentences: He walks to school every day. We learn English from 10 to 12. She works in an office on Market Street. They eat lunch at noon. It rains almost every day in June. You Speak English very well. I like Janice 2.    There is a final “s “ on the end of the verb only with certain subject. What are they? ____I     ____you     ____he     ____she     ____It     ____we     ____they 3.    Circle the right verb. I  drive / drives to work every morning. We  speak / speaks both Madarin and Cantonese. My cat  sleep / sleeps all day. He  take / takes  the bus home. You  watch  /  watches the news every night. They  travel / travels to Europe about once a year. She  drink / drinks coffee with her breakfast.
