چطور با خواندن، انگليسي خود را تقويت کنيم؟

سريع خواني معمولاً افراد هنگام مطالعه‌ي يک متن (مثلاً يک روزنامه)

سعي مي‌کنند با حداقل تلاش و حداکثر سرعت به مضمون اصلي مطلب

پي ببرند. شايد بتوان اين استراتژي را «سريع خواني» ناميد.

 در اين استراتژي مغز تلاش مي‌کند تا جاي ممکن کلمات کمتري را

بخواند و تنها کسري از ثانيه روي هر کلمه توقف مي‌کند. ممکن است زبان‌آموزان

نيز ايناستراتژي را براي خواندن متون انگليسي بکار بگيرند.  حال بايد ديد اين استراتژي

(سريع خواني) چه ويژگيهايي دارد:

• کلمات گرامري از قبيل حروف اضافه و حروف تعريف ديده

نمي‌شوند. چشم تنها روي کلماتي از قبيل اسمها، فعلها، صفات و قيدهاي

اصلي توقف مي‌کند. • وجوه کلمه ديده نمي‌شود (مانند قسمت دوم يا سوم

بودن يک فعل).  • به املاي دقيق کلمه

دقت نمي‌شود. دانسته شده است که مغز کل کلمه را از روي شکل آن

تشخيص مي‌دهد و آن رابصورت حرف به حرف تجزيه و تحليل نمي‌کند.

  • به کلمات مشکلي که براي درک معني کلمه ضروري نيستند توجه نمي‌شود

  (براي صرفه جويي در وقت به ديکشنري مراجعه نمي‌شود).

Principles of effective teaching and learning for English language learners

Incorporating these seven principles into your planning will help your students make academic progress in your curriculum area while they are learning English.

The seven principles are exemplified in the following units:

• Magnetism - science, level 3
• Measurement - maths, level 4/5
• Acids and bases - science level 5
• chemistry (Word 591KB) -science level 5/6

Principle 1

Know your learners - their language background, their language proficiency, their experiential background.

What do you know about your students' language skills? What do you know about their prior knowledge? How will you find out this information? How will it affect your planning?

Principle 2

Identify the learning outcomes including the language demands of the teaching and learning.

What language do the students need to complete the task? Do the students know what the content and language learning outcomes are?

Principle 3

Maintain and make explicit the same learning outcomes for all the learners.

How can I make the lesson comprehensible to all students? How can I plan the learning tasks so that all the students are actively involved? Do my students understand the learning outcomes?

Principle 4

Begin with context embedded tasks which make the abstract concrete.

How can I put these concepts into a concrete context?

Principle 5

Provide multiple opportunities for authentic language use with a focus on students using academic language.

Is the language focus on key language? Do I make sure the students have many opportunities to notice and use new language?

Principle 6

Ensure a balance between receptive and productive language.

Are the students using both productive (speaking, writing) and receptive (listening, reading) language in this lesson?

Principle 7

Include opportunities for monitoring and self-evaluation.

Am I using 'think alouds' to show students my strategy use? What opportunities are there for reflection and self-evaluation?
