COMMUNICATIVE METHODS FOR TEACHING GRAMMAR TO YOUNG LEARNES
Find what letters are hidden in the picturesConclusion The communicative approach has changed our stereotypes about teaching-learning process. It accents children’s participation in the classroom, where the teacher is not the central figure of the lesson. She or he is only the provider of feedback. Most of classtime is spent on speaking activities and only target language is used. Pupils a taught to communicate in non-deliberate way, their errors are corrected in an oblique manner. We should know our little learners, their abilities and their interests. The teacher should know that little children do not come to the classroom empty-handed. They bring with them an already well-established set of instincts, skills and characteristics, which will help them to learn another language. They are already very good at interpreting meaning without necessarily understanding the individual words. Intonation, gesture, actions and circumstances all help to tell them what unknown words probably mean. Children frequently learn indirectly rather than directly. They have a ready imagination and take great pleasure in finding and creating fun in what they do. And above all they take great delight in talking. This knowledge will help us in our work. While preparing a lesson in the primary school the teacher plans a kind of scenario of the theatrical game, in which each pupil has his role. The teacher only stimulates and directs his pupils’ role-playing. The lesson should provide conditions for pupils learn. “Language is a skill, so it should be learnt, it cannot be taught”, M.West once Said. So, pupils should be taught to learn for themselves. And our task is to make the process of learning interesting and enjoyable. The expected findings of the study indicate that the experimental groups, primary and intermediate level (two in the 6th grade and two in the 11th grade) were the same at the time of starting the experiment and the teaching of English grammar through inductive approach plays a positive role in improving the academic achievement of the pupils studying English grammar in both levels. It is necessary for teachers to vary their techniques and ways of teaching according to their pupils’ interests and achievement levels with more emphasis on using the inductive way of teaching grammar. Teachers and instructors are encouraged to participate in different intensive training courses in order to be aware of various modern methods of teaching English language. They also should apply modern ways of teaching in their classes since this is one of the aims of the Ministry of Public Education. Researchers should conduct other studies in order to obtain a more comprehensive idea about which way of teaching is more influential in teaching grammar. Reference Halliwell Susan.
