Webinar - Task-based Approach to Language Learning - Manu Menard

Stages of Language Unit:
1. Priming stage - approx. 6-12 tasks

2. Form stage

3. Main task

- Do not start with grammar/vocab lists - Let the students discover the language themselves.
- Introduce words/vocab and recycle/reuse these in the next task.
- Cognitively move up the ladder with each task. Processing higher with each task. From receptive state up to a productive one.
- Save video resources for the latter part of the Priming stage when they have more knowledge.
- Ask yourself 'Can they do what I am asking them to do?'
