LEARN ENGLISH GRAMMAR THROUGH TELUGU GRAMMAR
OBJECTIVES
Teaching grammar is an important part of student’s education and development. It's taught in literacy and English lessons as students get to grips with some of the main rules that govern our language. It’s also key in the process of learning a new language.
Here, we’ll discuss some of the specific objectives of teaching English grammar at primary level, explaining what the main goals are and what learners should aim to achieve. We'll also look at some of the different approaches to teaching grammar more generally, and the benefits of grammar knowledge when learning a new language.
EXPECTED OUTCOME
- Students will heighten their awareness of correct usage of English grammar in writing and speaking
- Students will improve their speaking ability in English both in terms of fluency and
comprehensibility - Students will give oral presentations and receive feedback on their performance
- Students will increase their reading speed and comprehension of academic articles
- Students will improve their reading fluency skills through extensive reading
- Students will enlarge their vocabulary by keeping a vocabulary journal
- Students will strengthen their ability to write academic papers, essays and summaries using the process approach
THE CONTEXT
We want Students to start thinking about what exactly we mean by a term like ‘grammar’ and how and why grammar differs in speech and writing. For some of Students this will revise and build on their knowledge of previous study. Activity is a way of raising questions in their mind and they will find some answers or explanations in the rest of the course. Many of the uses to which knowledge of grammar is put are also starting to rely on the application of computer technology to language analysis. The new computational tools are changing the way we describe and understand language. Some of the activities that Students will be trying out are important in writing many dictionaries and textbooks about English. But before we move on to recent approaches to grammar we shall take a short diversion into different types of grammatical description.
