My classes have been going very well since school resumed after
Christmas vacation. I have really enjoyed my students, and I am happy
with the way the students have responded to the curriculum changes I
made. One change I made was to the beginning of each class. I decided to
implement "Daily Oral Language" at the beginning of each period. For
those of you who are not familiar with D.O.L., it's a method of teaching
grammar. Basically I write a couple of incorrect sentences on the
chalkboard, and then we discuss as a class how to make them "good
English." To introduce this activity last week I used the following very
simple sentences. See if you can correct them.
- My name are Miss Smith.
- The boy have a dog.
- The boy has a dog small.
- Mother my is sleeping.
