Teaching through Writing
Students explore language through creative

the way and if there are specific problems
with certain grammatical rules, it will be
covered in a more structured lesson.

Spoken Grammar Vs. Written Grammar

TEACHING
Inductive Teaching
Inductive Grammar Teaching

The Basic Steps:
Step 1: Present several examples that
illustrate a particular concept.
Step 2: Students must observe how the
concept works from these examples.
Step 3: Students are expected to
recognize the rule of grammar naturally

Inductive Teaching
Retention of grammar concepts is the main goal
of inductive teaching with teachers using
techniques that are known to work cognitively
and make an impression on student's
contextual memory.
Student-Centered Learning Approach

TEACHING
Deductive Teaching
Deductive Grammar Teaching

The Basic Steps:
Step 1: A teacher gives an in-depth
explanation of a grammatical concept
before students could encounter it in their
own writing.
Step 2: After the lesson, students practice
through worksheets and exercises.

Deductive Teaching
Deductive teaching methods drive many
students away from writing because of the
tediousness of rote learning and teacher-
centered approaches.

PRESENTATION
PRACTICE
PRODUCTION
PRESENTATION
This involves building a situation
that requires a natural and logical
use of a new language. It is in this
stage that students know what
they will learn and why.
Example:
Our lesson for today is about
Nouns and Pronouns.

PRACTICE
This involves testing the
procedure so students can be
familiar with the language focus
taught by the grammar teacher.
Example:
Now, let's have a short quiz
to test your knowledge.

PRODUCTION
In here, students shift from
"learners" to "users" of the
language. Teachers create
learning situations to use the
language focus.
Example:
Class, let's have a role play.
Emphasize the use of modal

verbs. Functional-Notional Approach
