Stimulating Grammatical Awareness - A Fresh Look at Language Acquisition (Paperback)

This text looks at what all language learners need to know and do in order to move from their mother tongue into another language. Part of this is in anticipating and then counteracting some assumptions that learners can make about other languages. These assumptions can be revealed by looking at the mistakes pupils can make. There are many suggestions for activities that should lead pupils to a better understanding - either implicitly or explicitly - of the language they are learning. The book starts with getting pupils accustomed to the sound of language. There is an emphasis on developing the inner abilities of the mind which are needed to recall both the sight and sound of the language. The book covers how much understanding of language in general and of their own language in particular the pupil should have before they can make real progress. It also stresses the need for the constant practising of new patterns of language.
