Teaching Grammar in Second Language Classrooms: Integrating Form-Focused Instruction in Communicative Context

Recent SLA research recognizes the necessity of attention to grammar and demonstrates that form-focused instruction is especially effective when it is incorporated into a meaningful communicative context. Designed specifically for second-language teachers, this text identifies and explores the various options for integrating a focus on grammar and a focus on communication in classroom contexts and offers concrete examples of teaching activities for each option.

Each chapter includes a description of the option, its theoretical and empirical background, examples of activities illustrating in a non-technical manner how it can be implemented in the classroom, questions for reflection, and a list of useful resources that teachers can consult for further information. |9780203850961|9781283044790|9781136966040|9781136965999|9781136966033, 6613044792|0203850963|128304479X|1136966048|1136965998|113696603X, 9780415802048|9780415802055, 0415802040|0415802059.
