Go for it! Icebreaker

Icebreaker:

Write your answers to these topics

on your paper hand:

Go for it incorporates the latest findings

in educational neuroscience

Two examples for brainfriendly learning

taken from Go for it!A1

1) Were you at a party last night?

2) I am eating spaghetti

Educational neuroscience


Activity 1: Were you at a party last night?


Mannheim TTD 24 May 2019 12:30 - 14:00

Do it – evaluate it

Activity 1:

Were you at a party last night?

Method: Mill drill

1) The aim of this activity is to find out what most people do in our class,

to find the trend

2) Take one card per person

3) Look at the presentation for help

4) Form the correct question

5) Ask everybody in class the same question and tick ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ on

your card

6) Report back on the trend in our group


Mannheim TTD 24 May 2019 12:30 - 14:00

All of us were

at a party last night.

“Were you at a party last night?“

Yes, I was. No, I wasn‘t.

True or false?

Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00

Activity 1:

Were you at a party last night?

Method: Mill drill

Evaluation

1. How did you feel?

2. Did you use the new structure correctly?

Activity taken from Go for it! Teacher‘s Resource book A1 pp 24/25


Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00

Which method did we use?


Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00

Deductive method = teacher presents the rules

PPP = presentation, production, practice

Activity 2:

I am eating spaghetti

Method: Miming

Evaluation

1. Who used the new structure?

2. Was the use of the new grammar structure compulsory?

3. Do students need to know the grammar structure before the activity?

4. What must follow after the activity?

5. Who is going to find out and explain the rule?


Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00

Which method did we use?

I am eating spaghetti

inductive method = students find the rules for themselves by

using the new structure in a context in which the new

grammar structure is the only possible structure

Find out the rules by

SOS Sammeln Ordnen Strukturieren

Magic Words in modern language teaching:


Karlsruhe 28 June 2019 14:30 - 17:00

guided discovery / gelenktes Entdecken

However, there are students who prefer the traditional approach.

So what should we do?

Take the best of both worlds

See Go for it! A1 p 70 and p 76

P 114/115 and p 121

See it! Understand it! Use it!
