 Dialogues  Conversation Starters  English Rhythms

Students! So what exactly do these guys have to do with ESL Students????

Experiments with Fruit Flies have revealed the connection between short-term & long-term memory....

Fruit Fly Test Favorite Food Mmm!!!!! Stinky Smelly Stuff Left : Right:

How many repetitions.... Before he gets it right every time??? 7 to 10

In Human Terms... Exposure once every 24 hours For 7 to 10 days Can skip 1 or 2 days (not 3)

People Are Instant Forgetters... Short-term memory is used for only those things that we do not normally need on a daily basis... Long-term memory is for those things that we need frequently Like the words that we use for Speaking!!!

Dialogues are designed to repeat the “Chunks of English” every day for 7 to 10 days... And then test the student for comprehension.

How To Practice With Students must “ECHO” or “CHORUS” the Dialogues X (drop Dialogue 1 and give Dictation) 9 XX (then drop Dialogue 2 & Dictation)

Speaking a foreign language... Accent Vocabulary Construction

Accent..... The words must be understandable and the rhythm and cadence in range.

CATS EAT MICE The CATSEAT MICE The CATSEATthe MICE The CATS have EATENthe MICE The CATS might have EATENthe MICE

Vocabulary..... The Average American uses only about 2500 words daily to communicate in English. *100 Words make up about 50% of printed material Most Frequently Used Words

Construction..... Position is very important in English. Sentences need to be in a recognizable form. Not Translated Sentences!

How Important Is Grammar? The Human Brain has a grammar function that can be short-circuited by teaching grammar.... *Example: How many American students study Spanish grammar in High School and actually learn to speak Spanish..... Exactly!

Is designed to ensure that Students start with the most important words first, acquire an American English Accent, and assimilate Grammar naturally.

The Ah-Ha Effect!!! Students are given “Chunks Of English” They should try to guess the grammar rules. Only in the very late stages of language learning should they be given the actual rule.

Conversation... To be successful they need to.. TALK!!!

Ending A Conversation Now say “Excuse me” and end the Conversation. Oh! Look at the time. I really have to go. I just have so many things to do today. It was really nice talking with you. I hope that I see you again sometime! Odd # Students = Interrupter
