2. Criteria of the system of communication
in order to be considered a language:
ï”A language uses symbols
ï”A language is meaningful and therefore can
be understood by other users of that
language.
3. ï”A language is generative
ï”A language has rules that govern how
symbols can be arranged.
4. The Building Blocks of Language
1. Phonemes- the smallest distinguishable
units in a language.
2. Morphemes- the smallest meaningful units
in a language.
5. 3. Syntax â is a system of rules that governs
how words can be meaningfully
arranged to form phrases and
sentences.
6. Properties of Human Language
ï”creative and dynamic
ï”structured
ï”meaningful
ï”referential
ï”interpersonal
8. What is the secondary English subject all
about?
The secondary English curriculum for 2002
seeks to develop citizenship and to address
the communication needs(i.e. interpersonal,
informative, and aesthetic) of Filipino
students for English, which is emerging as the
international lingua franca.
9. In line with developments in applied
linguistics and pedagogy, and in consonance
with the government thrusts and
globalization ,this emerging English
curriculum adopts a communicative-
interactive, collaborative approach to
learning as well as reflection and
introspection .
10. It has the aim in view of developing
autonomous language learners who are aware
of and are able to cope with global trends.

âWith a specific objective in mind, our
lesson becomes more focused. We do not
waste nor kill time for we are sure of what
to teach, how to teach and what materials
to use.â â Corpuz, B. & G.
66. 2. Encourage your students to personalize
the learning goals identified for them.
âWhen students set their own personal
targets (lesson objectives), they will become
more self-motivated.â â Corpuz, B. & G.
67. 3. Motivation is essential in learning.
It is motivation that makes students
explore, choose, remain interested,
participate actively and build self-
confidence.
68. 4. Learning is a social activity.
âIt is a cooperative and collaborative
process.â â Pine, Gerald & Peter J. Horne.
We learn from others when we interact
with them in the same way that they learn
from us.
69. 5. Teaching language is more effective and
learning, more meaningful when it is
integrative.
When you do integrative teaching, you will:
ï± incorporate the 4 language arts
(listening, speaking, reading and writing)
70. ï±consider varied strategies for all multiple
intelligences and learning styles
ï±apply interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary
teaching
ï±teach language structure and form in
authentic contexts rather than through
contrived drills in language workbooks
71. ï±connect your lessons to the life
experiences of your students
ï±incorporate effective, research-based
instructional strategies for teaching
ï±integrate values in your lessons
72. 6. A conducive classroom atmosphere is a
sine qua non of the teaching-learning
process.
Build comfort into learning. People
function best in a favorable atmosphere.
73. Gerald J. Pine and Peter J. Horne describe a
facilitative learning atmosphere as one that:
ï¶encourages people to be active
ï¶promotes and facilitates the individualâs
discovery of the personal meaning of
ideas
74. ï¶emphasizes the uniquely personal and
subjective nature of learning
ï¶sees difference as good and desirable
ï¶consistently recognizes peopleâs right to
make mistakes
ï¶tolerates ambiguity
75. ï¶looks at evaluation as a cooperative
process and emphasizes on self-
evaluation
ï¶encourages openness of self rather than
concealment of self
76. ï¶encourages people to trust in themselves
as well as in external sources
ï¶gives respect to people
ï¶accepts people for who they are
ï¶permits confrontation with self and ideas
77. 7. Learning is an active process which uses
sensory input and constructs meaning out of
it.
âLearning involves the learnerâs engaging
with the world and not the passive acceptance
of knowledge which exists out thereâ â Hein, G.
78. 8. Learning is reflective.
Need to provide activities which engage
the mind as well as the hands. Physical
actions, hands-on experience may be
necessary for learning but it is not sufficient.
79. 9. An approach that allows for âmore time,
more depth with fewer, more complex topicsâ
is more desirable.
This superficial teaching wonât allow a
teacherâs lesson to seep into the minds and
hearts of the students.
80. 10. Emphasize on self-evaluation.
Feedback should be criterion-
referenced. Practice using rubrics. It is
against this personal target that they will
evaluate themselves at the end of the
lesson.
81. 11. Make use of an integrated performance
assessment that makes the connections
between learning styles, intelligence, and
the real world explicit in a way that is useful
to both students and teachers.
82. 12. Emphasize on real word application that
favors realistic performances over out-of-
context drill items.
Howard Gardner argues for assessment
practices that look directly at the performance
that we value, whether it is linguistic, logical,
aesthetic, or social performance.
85. Interactive Teaching Strategy
=> is in keeping with the principle that
learning is an active process. The more you
involve yourselves in the learning process, the
more learning you get.
86. Modes of Interaction:
ï”Interact with Classmates
ï”Interact with Teacher
ï”Interact with Instructional Material
ï”Interact with Self
87. Integrative Teaching
=> comes from the word âintegerâ which
means to make a whole; an effective
instructional strategy.
88. Integrative Teaching
=> To do wholistic or integrated teaching is
in contrast with the choppy and isolated
teaching that takes place in several
classrooms.
89. MI-Integrated Teaching Strategy
Teaching is also integrative when it
includes all learners with multiple
intelligences and varied learning styles.
There are teaching strategies that are more
effective for each intelligence and learning
style.

98. Research-based Teaching Strategy
According to the McREL researchers, there
are 9 categories of instructional strategies that
proved to be exceptionally effective in
increasing student performance.
99. ï¶ Setting Objectives
ïTeachers can narrow the focus for students.
ïInstructional goals should not be too
specific, however, or learning will be
limited.
ïStudents should be encouraged to adapt
the teachersâ goals to their own personal
needs and desires.
100. ï¶ Providing Feedback
ïFeedback should be corrective in nature.
ïThe timeliness of feedback is essential to its
effectiveness.
ïFeedback should be specific to a criterion.
ïStudents can effectively provide their own
feedback through on-going self-evaluation of
their learning and performance.
101. ï¶ Non-linguistic Representations
ïA variety of activities (graphic
representations, pictures, mental images,
physical and technological models and
kinesthetic activities) can help students to
formulate non-linguistic representations.
ïIt elaborate on knowledge.
102. ï¶ Cues and Questions
ïIt should focus on what is important rather
than on what is unusual.
ïHigher-level questions produce deeper
learning than lower-level questions.
103. ïWaiting at least 3 sec. before accepting
responses from students increases the
depth of answers.
ïQuestions are effective even before a
lesson begins.
104. ï¶ Advance Organizers
ïIt should focus on what is important
instead of what is unusual.
ïHigher-level organizers produce deeper
learning than lower level advance
organizers.
105. ïIt is best used to give structure to
information that is not well organized.
ïThere are 4 main types of advance
organizers: expository, narrative,
skimming, and graphic.
106. ï¶ Cooperative Learning
ïThese groups should rarely be organized by
ability.
ïThese groups should also be small.
ïTeachers should take care not to overuse
them.
107. ï¶ Summarizing
ïTo effectively summarize, students must
keep, delete, and substitute information.
ïStudents must analyze the information at a
fairly deep level.
ïBeing aware of the explicit structure of
information is an aid when summarizing.
108. ï¶ Note Taking
ïVerbatim note taking is the least effective way
to take notes.
ïNotes should always be considered works in
progress.
ïNotes should be used as study guides for tests.
ïThe more notes taken, the better.
109. ï¶ Homework
ïThe amount of homework assigned to
students should increase as they progress
from elementary through high school.
ïParental involvement in homework should
be minimal.
110. ïThe purpose of homework should be
identified and articulated.
ïFeedback should be provided on
homework.
111. ï¶ Reinforcing Effort
ïStudents are unaware of the direct effect
that effort has on success.
ïStudents can learn that the effort they put
into a task has a direct effect on their
success.
ïStrong belief in effort increases motivation.
112. ï¶ Providing Recognition
ïRewards do not necessarily have a negative
effect on intrinsic motivation.
ïRewards are most effective when they are
contingent upon the attainment of some
standard performance.
114. ï¶ Generating and Testing Hypotheses
ïHypothesis generation and testing can be
approached in an inductive or deductive
manner.
ïTeachers must encourage students to
explain their hypotheses and conclusions.
115. ï¶ Identifying Similarities and Differences
ïTeacher-directed activities deeper
understanding for students and increase
their ability to use knowledge.
ïStudents should independently identify
similarities and differences.
116. ïWhen students represent similarities and
differences in graphic or symbolic form, it
enhances their ability to identify and
understand similarities and differences.
117. ïThere are four different forms of
identifying similarities and differences:
comparing, classifying, creating analogies,
and creating metaphors.
119. Graphic Organizers
=> The use of different types of graphic
organizers enhances teaching and learning.
120.
121.
122.
123.
124.
125.
126. Narrative Frame
Elements of the narrative or story frame:
ïŒ Characters: the characteristics of the main
characters in the story
ïŒ Setting: the time, place, and context in
which the information took place
127. ïŒ Initiating event: the event that starts the
actions rolling in the story
ïŒ Internal response: how the main characters
react emotionally to the initiating event
ïŒ Goal: what the main characters decided to do
as a reaction to the initiating event
128. ïŒ Consequence: how the main characters try
to accomplish try to a accomplish the goal
ïŒ Resolution: how the goal turns out
129. Value Integration Techniques / Tools
ï Value Sheet â It consist of a provocative
statement and a series of questions duplicated
on a sheet of paper. The purpose of the
provocative statement is to raise an issue that
have a value implication for students.
130. The purpose of the question is to carry each
student through the value- clarifying process
with the issue.
ï Value-Clarifying Question: Can we love our
country even if we can speak English better
that Filipino?
131. Can we claim we love our country even if we do
not speak the national language? Are other ways
of showing our love for country? Is there really
need for a national language?
132. ï Voting â The teacher asks questions which
require the students to take a stand on
issues by raising their hands. e.g. Are you for
the school policy on no field trip? Each
student is asked to support his/her stand.
133. ï Rank Ordering â Words or statements are
placed on the blackboard and the students
are asked to rank them in order of their
preference. Then each student is asked to
explain his rank ordering.
134. ï Picture Without a Caption â The students will
be asked to write a caption for a picture
without a caption. Students will be asked to
explain their caption.
135. ï Value Continuum â A value-laden statement is
presented to the students. Each student is
asked to express his degree of agreement or
disagreement by encircling the letter that
corresponds to his response in Likert scale: SA â
Strongly Agree, A- Agree, U- Undecided, D-
Disagree, SD â Strongly Disagree
136. ï Devilâs Advocate â This serves as an example. In
his/her attempt to justify the presence of a
pollution-contributing cement factory in town,
the teacher forwards plausible reasons
defending the cement factory before his/her
students.
137. She/he says: âThe cement factory gives jobs to
the community. It made the town a first class
town because of its taxes. It has put the
community into the limelight because of its
excellent products is serves as donor in many
community projectsâ, etc. Teacher acts as
contravida in the first part of the lesson.
138. In doing so, she/he stimulates the class to
argue, to debate with him/her making the class
highly interactive. Before the class ends,
however, teacher makes clear his/her stands to
clear all doubts and confusion.
139. ï Unfinished Sentences â An unfinished
sentence is written on the board and the
students are asked to complete it by
injecting their thoughts about something.
140. ï Conflict Story â This is best explained by the
use of this example. Shall we allow our best
teachers, nurses, medical doctors and other
professionals to contribute to the brain drain or
keep them here to compete for the scare job
offerings and contribute to unemployment?
142. ï¶ Generating Mental Pictures â This helps
students understand and store knowledge.
Use all the five sense to help produce rich
mental images.
143. ï¶ Physical Models â These are concrete
representations of what is being learned.
When students use manipulative, they are
making a physical model to represent
knowledge.
144. Manipulative are commonly associated with
math (e.g. shapes, cubes, money) but can
actually be incorporated in all content areas
through such items as puzzles, maps, word sorts
and Legos.
145. ï¶ Kinesthetic Activities â Students engage in
active language learning by demonstrating
their comprehension through body
movements such as standing up, turning
around, sitting down, clapping their hands.
146. ï¶ Explicit Cues â Cues and questions must be
used before a lesson begins in order to
activate background knowledge and to help
students focus on what they will be learning.
A K-W-L chart is perfect for this purpose.
147. ï¶ Teacher-Prepared Notes â This way teacher
models good note taking. As students progress
in their language acquisition, notes given in
written form with some of the words missing.
ï¶ Comparison matrix
148. ï¶ English Debate â There are two sides to a
question. The class is divided into two sections
facing each other according to the position
taken on the topic. Each side has a leader who
fields questions. If someoneâs argument
convinces anyone that they should change
sides, they literally get up and move to the
other side.
149. A count is taken at the beginning and end to
note changes made. A total class discussion of
the pros and cons can be the final synthesizing
activity. This debate technique can last for
several days allowing time for students to read
more on the topic for persuasive argument.
151. Assessment as an Integral Part of Teaching
Assessment
=> is an integral part of the teaching
process. Teaching cannot be whole and complete
without you assessing learning and you doing
something after you have assessed studentsâ
learning.
152. For our purpose, suffice it is to mention that:
ï± The use of the traditional paper-and âpencil
test is not adequate to measure the many
types of learning.
ï± An authentic assessment consists in looking
directly into the performance that we value.
153. ï± Assessment is formative and summative.
ï± Self-assessment is a pedagogically sound
practice.
154. Here are some effective assessment strategies:
o Reflect and revise â Give students a chance to
reflect on and revise previously completed
work will help ensure that they do, ultimately,
master content objectives.
155. o Use rubrics - Students can use the same tool
to self-and- peer-assess assignments that
teachers employ to assess their work. If
students write a summary of an article they
read, for example, they can use a rubric to
determine how well their work meets the
established criteria for the assignment.
156. o The exit slip - Give students a chance to
assess the teacher, too. Teachers can give
students a form to fill out and turn in at the
end of the class. The form may state the
learning objectives for that dayâs lesson and
ask student to reflect on what they learned.
