Teaching Ideas
Good
teachers are always
looking for new ideas. Here are some valuable resources
that can help your classroom practice.
The theory of extensive
reading is one of
the most useful starting points for the teaching of
reading in a second language. Shelley Vernon gives
some valuable insights into using stories
with pre-schoolers while
Rocky Nelson provides a course outline
for an
extensive reading program.
Computer
aided language learning or CALL is an important new
source of resources. ESL Reading features in the
recently published, Tips for Teaching with Call:
Practical Approaches to Computer -Assisted Languag
Learning (2008,
Pearson/Longman).
