HOW GRAMMAR IS TAUGHT
(
DINI SARIYATI
)
Teaching grammar explicitly can be done through drills and activities.
The teacher, in turn, reacts through giving corrective feedback either implicitly or explicitly.
In other words, a teacher can correct errors directly or indirectly (the feedback is masked).
Grammar teaching can be taught through focus on both form and meaning
Grammar teaching also can be further explicit instruction that can help implicit knowledge
To developed into producing meaningful sentences in communicative situation
English grammar is very complex, and all its intricacies cannot truly be learned by rote, they must be really understood
and understanding is most easily achieved when students are engaged, interested and having fun during a lesson.
