TEACHING METHODS
Diagramming Sentences
is a way to visualize how the different parts of a sentence fit
together.
Sentence diagramming can be a great visual for students and the
teacher to work with while trying to understand the aspect of
sentences. It has great learning strategies integrated into it, but
like many other strategies, it has its shortcomings.
Deductive Teaching
Unlike the inductive approach, the deductive approach means that the
teacher gives the rules beforehand and then gives opportunities to
the students to apply them. The teacher presents the rules and then
students are given exercises. This method of teaching grammar places
emphasis on giving instruction before practice.
Inductive Teaching
“An inductive approach (rule-discovery) starts with some examples
from which a rule is inferred.”– Thornbury, 1999
By teaching grammar through writing, students are given the time and
space to experience language in their own way, rather than rushing
their understanding of grammar concepts through traditional
exercises.
In this method, the teacher can integrate games, puzzles, and fun
online quizzes in the grammar lessons.

In the past, memorization-based techniques that relied on
repetition were used by second language teachers. These techniques
then slowly gave way to more creative methods. Today, we live in a
society that prizes literacy and is willing to adapt to more
effective methods to achieve the best results in teaching grammar.
How did the CHOICE OF METHODS become an issue in grammar teaching and
assessment?
Method selection has become a challenge in grammar education and evaluation since it
depends on the needs and understanding of students. Because of this, technique choice
is viewed as a challenge in grammar instruction and affects how students learn. And it is
also difficult to provide for individual learning styles.
Teaching methods and approaches are very important in impacting knowledge into the learners, methodologies that are only
teacher centered will achieve less result,it should be pupil oriented and done to fit into the learning styles of all.

They are difficult to identify. They may be due to the fact that the
teaching material is maybe not appropriate to the class, or there are
some deficiencies in the choice of methods.
In todays lesson, I have learned about the role of the diff instructional
materials and how these materials can help us as a future educators. I also
learned about why do we need to study grammar and the pedagogical issue
in grammar assessment.
Question: What do you think is the importance of choosing the right teaching
method in grammar teaching?
