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

What happened during the second trip in the next few days was-if possible-even stranger: every time we headed westward (c) _____________________ we found a huge, bare mountaintop ahead of us.

Dedukció, Watson!

Összetett feladat ez a mostani - először is keres az ember valami autentikus szöveget, amire pl. kitűnően alkalmasak a szépirodalmi szövegek, illetve ezek kivonatolt / egyszerűsített verziói, főleg, ha kezdőkkel foglalkozunk.

Ki-ki elkészítheti a (kedvenc) feladattípusai egyikét, hogy legyen nyelvtani megközelítés is, aztán jön a svédcsavar: még egy feladattípust beszúrunk, illetve felhasznélunk, de ennek az alkalmazás szempontjából jó, ha az előzőtől eltérő területet megcélzó felhasználhatósága van.

Most a legegyszerűbb nyelvtani elem (ragozás, igeidők) egy reading-feladattal kombinálva. A második feladat a szövegrészek összekeverten történő kiadása, hogy sorba állítsák, rekonstruálják a tanulók a történetet. A nyelvtani, tartalmi, egyéb kohéziós kulcsok megkeresése a feladat része.

Death in the Night

 
That night we _______ (go) back to the house. When we ______ (see) Helen Stoner's light, Holmes and I ______ (get) in quietly through the window. Then we _______ (wait) silently in the middle bedroom in the dark. We waited for three hours and _______ (move, not). Suddenly we saw a light and ________ (hear) a sound from Dr Roylott's room. But nothing _______ (happen), and again we waited in the dark. Then there ________ (is) another sound, a very quiet sound. . . Immediately Holmes _______ (jump) up and _______ (hit) the bell-rope hard.

'Can you see it, Watson?' he________ (shout). But I saw nothing. There was a quiet whistle. We both _________ (look up) at the air-vent, and suddenly we heard a terrible cry in the next room. Then the house was silent again.
'What________ (mean)?' I asked. My voice ________ (shake). 'It __________ (finish),' answered Holmes. 'Let's go and see.' We went into Dr Roylott's room. The metal box was open. Roylott __________ (sit) on a chair, and his eyes _______ (is) fixed on the air-vent. Round his head was a strange, yellow speckled band. He was dead.
'The band! The speckled band!' ________ (say) Holmes very quietly. The band _________ (move) and _______ (begin) to turn its head. 'Be careful, Watson! It's a snake, an Indian snake - and its poison can ________ (kill) very quickly,' Holmes _________ (cry). 'Roylott ________ (die) immediately. We must _________ (put) the snake back in its box.' Very, very carefully, Holmes ________ (take) the snake and ________ (throw) it into the metal box.
'But how __________ (know, you) about the snake, Holmes?' I________ (ask).
'At first, Watson, I ________ (think) that it ________ (is) the gypsies. But then I____________ (understand). I thought that perhaps something _________ (come) through the air-vent, down the bell-rope and onto the bed. Then there was the milk - and of course, snakes _________ (drink) milk. It was easy for the Doctor to get Indian animals. And because he was a doctor, he ________ (know) that this snake's poison is difficult to find in a dead body. So every night he _________ (put) the snake through the air- vent, and it went down the bell-rope onto the bed. Of course, nobody must see the snake, so every night he __________ (whistle) to call it back. The sound of metal falling was the door of the metal box, which was the snake's home. Perhaps the snake came through the air-vent many times before it ________ (kill) Julia. But in the end it killed her. And Helen, too, nearly _______ (die) because of this snake.
'But tonight, when I ________ (hit) the snake on the rope, it ______ (is) angry and _______ (go) back through the air-vent. And so it killed the Doctor. I ________ (sorry, not) about that.'
Soon after this Helen Stoner ___________ (marry) her young man and ___________ (try) to forget the terrible deaths of her sister and stepfather. But she never really ___________ (forget) the speckled band.

NICOLE FOR PRESIDENT!
 

Nicole discusses her plans to run for student body president. Nicole wants Ted to ask his friends to vote for her. Ted agrees, in exchange for Nicole's help with his homework.

Nicole: I've decided to run for student body president! If I'm going to become a senator one day, I should get some experience under my belt now.
Ted: Andrea Jenkins is also running. She'll give you a run for your money!
Nicole: Andrea Jenkins is an idiot. I'm by far the better candidate.
Ted: Don't be so full of yourself! I might vote for Andrea.
Nicole: Stop kidding around. Let's get down to business. I need your help.
Ted: You want me to help you!
Nicole: Yes. I need you to talk your friends into voting for me.
Ted: But you never give my friends the time of day. All you give them is the cold shoulder.
Nicole: That's because they've got blue hair and nose rings!
Ted: They're better than your friends — a bunch of goodygoodies and brown-nosers!
Nicole: That's beside the point. Let's talk about your friends and their votes.
Ted: Okay. You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours. If you do my chemistry homework, I'll help you get the votes.
Nicole: I'm not crazy about that idea. But, okay, it's a deal. I hope I can count on you.

During the night there was a raging thunderstorm, but in the morning the weather was bright and sunny.

Generous, light-hearted, quick-tempered, extroverted, uncompromising or thrifty? Or easily led, lavish, reckless and taciturn?

 

 

Egy szótanítási módszer egy kis (saját készítésű) önértékelő-feladatlapon, mely letölthető innen. A feladat első részeként először is meg kell keresni a bal oldali oszlop szavaihoz tartozó ellentétpárt (jelentés alapján), majd ha ennek ellenőrzéseként megvan mindenkinek a kész kiértékelő-táblázat, mehet a rögzítés.

Ennek részleteit annak számos bevethető verziójára tekintettel most is a T. Kollégákra bízom, de hangsúlyoznom kell a feladat nyelvközpontúságát, mely kerüli az olyan értelmetlen módszereket, mint megszégyenítés és társai; ezek az ilyen jellegű feladattípusoknál óhatatlanul előkerülhetnek, és kezelni kell őket.
 

Itt pedig egy kis nyersanyag, amivel mindenki azt kezd, amit csak szeretne - számtalan féle feladatot lehet ennyi kis kész szövegből előállítani, és még több (vagyis több, mint számtalan :D ) módon lehet elővezetni. Jó felkészülést a tanár kollégáknak!

 

The stereotype of the English is that they are cold, reserved and unemotional. Compared with the extravagant French or the explosive Italians the English are an uptight lot. If they do feel anything they're not likely to let you now. It's a caricature but it has some truth in it. We grow up in a culture which tells us that it's good to control our feelings. We learn that it's best to restrain our warmth, our tears, and our anger. We learn that it's better to be rational. But is it? What happens to feelings you don't express? Many people argue that they don't just disappear. They continue to exist under the surface and affect the way you feel and behave. Anger that you don't express to others can become anger that you turn against yourself. Fears that you don't talk about may make you timid in all things. You may put on a brave front but inside you're fearful and anxious. Hurts and disappointments that you've never cried over may make you protect yourself hard against any possible new hurt and become over- cautious about getting close to others. How do you show your feelings? The following quiz looks at some feelings that are common to us all and some of the different ways that people react to them. Reactions can range from expressing the feeling spontaneously and directly to finding some way of denying that it exists at all. For each section circle the answer that is most often typical of you.
