Literature in the Language Classroom: A Resource Book of Ideas and Activities

Joanne Collie, 1987

This is a practical guide for practising teachers of English and teachers in training. It offers teachers a rationale and a variety of imaginative techniques for integrating literature work with language teaching. It is divided into three sections: Part I discusses the questions: Why teach literature? What should we teach? How should we teach it?; Part II outlines and illustrates a wealth of student-centred class and homework activities appropriate to each stage of the study of a literary work. Detailed descriptions of the activities are accompanied by numerous sample worksheets; Part III demonstrates techniques for working with complete texts, and shows how the activities outlined in Part II can be applied to particular novels, plays, short stories and poems. All activities described have been used successfully with a wide range of classes from intermediate level up. Подробнее

Double Take 1: Listening and Speaking

Joanne Collie, 1996

Topic-based skills training for teenagers. • The aim of the series is to develop confidence and fluency in each of the four major language skills: reading, writing, listening, and speaking. • It provides both skills training and language practice within a clear structural and lexical framework. • At each level, the four skills are covered in two books which can be used in parallel or separately: Reading and Writing and Listening and Speaking. • Each unit in Reading and Writing requires students to read and understand a text before producing their own written work. In Listening and Speaking learners listen to a recorded text and produce related oral work. • Within each book there is a systematic development of sub-skills such as reading for gist and for detail, writing drafts, listening for gist, negotiating, and using context to guess meaning. • The 'spiral' syllabus introduces sub-skills, practises them thoroughly, then recycles and develops them throughout the series. • The grammatical syllabus is clearly set out along with the skills syllabus. The controlled language base allows teachers to fit the material easily around the syllabus of any main coursebook. • The series is specifically designed to appeal to teenagers, with topics of interest to the age-group and eye-catching, full-colour artwork.
