TEACHING GRAMMAR FROM
EXAMPLES
Topic: …either/…too to express agreement.
This topic is part of Unit 1 in the book touchstone
2.
The students are intended to express agreement
in the tenses seen so far in the Basic block:
simple present of to be, simple present with other
verbs, can, would, and simple past tense.
This is a
powerful grammar item which helps students
keep a conversation going and to make a smooth
transition between the different parts of a
conversation.
Technique: Teaching Grammar through
Examples (inductive grammar).
I consider this
technique is very appropriate for the topic since
the grammar rule for using the grammar item can
be inferred with certain easiness by students.
This
structure obeys a pretty strict grammar pattern
SUBJECT+AUX+TOO or
SUBJECT+NEGATIVE AUX+EITHER.
Moreover, it is a great chance for recycling
previous information regarding verb tenses and
affirmative and negative forms, besides the use of
the structure resorts to previous knowledge on
aux
