WhimsicalLL

Beszélsz nyelveken? Vajon kinek mi a titka? Kidobott a porosz oktatási rendszer az utcára, és már ment is folyékonyan? Gondolatok, ötletek, építő javaslatok és inspiráló meglátások fogják hatékonyabbá tenni a tanítást, mert mindig, mindenhol tanárok, és egyúttal tanulók is vagyunk. A blog célja a whimsical, unorthodox és egyéb finnugor jelzőkkel megbélyegezhető módszerek, vagy nem módszerek, ötletek és sikersztorik gyűjtőhelyének lenni a második (harmadik, nx) nyelv elsajátítására vonatkozóan. Ha van olyan ötleted, módszered, ami NÁLAD működött, oszd meg velünk, hátha valaki magára ismer, alkalmazza, és megtanul még jobban tanulni, vagy tanítani. Ha mégsem, akkor is legalább elmélyítettük azt a tudást, miszerint a tanulás és tanítás személyes dolog, nem sablonok halmaza. Ide írhatsz: semiambidextrous@gmail.com

Ha valóban ki akarod használni a lehetőségeket, tanulj amerikai tanároktól teljesen INGYEN. Itt megtalálhatod a lakóhelyedhez legközelebbi ilyen lehetőséget: Ingyenes angol

most az jutott eszembe, hogy milyen remek (házi?)feladat lenne (akár csoportoknak), hogy a tanár kiad 1-1 ilyen témát 1-1 csoportnak (embernek) és az összegyűjt 15-20-(30??) kifejezést amit feltétlenül fel szeretne használni egy, az adott témáról szóló vitában.
kezdőknek szófaji megkötés nélkül, haladó(bba)knak x főnév, x ige, x melléknév, sőt, akár x db híres ember, vagy helyszín (a gondolatok alátámasztására, illusztrálására).

a következő órán meg akár elő is adhatják, amit gondolnak, VAGY megcserélik a szavakat a csoportok (emberek) egymás között.

:)

'even nostalgy isn't what it used to be...' valami grafittis könyvben olvastam egyszer :))

@Franci1969: Az ötlet kitűnő, köszi!
Sőt, eszembe juttatott egy hasonló feladatot, amit mindjárt be is állítok posztnak. Ez lesz a Toad Action Group, főiskolai tanulmányaimból. :D

A graffiti nagyon zsír.
