Nuts, Bolts and Drills

20th of May 2006 Teacher Training Day at GEOS Auckland Language Centre. Nuts and Bolts and Drills workshop - hands on drill practice. This handout includes a mindmap and preparation. What is missing are the drills. There are a lot of books out there on drills. This workshop was about how to practically implement them into your classroom dynamics. The 'Streamline' Series by Hartley and Viney, O.U.Press 1978 has some of the best drills I have seen. Nuts, Bolts and Drills handout. |

GEOS Auckland Language Centre Teacher Training Day in May 2006 In House teachers' workshop and in April on story telling with Crown Institute of Studies/ESOL Dept.
There was a regular handout in text and a mindmap, which was the overview. The overview is missing letters to make it more interesting but if you cannot work out what the word is contact me through Contact on the home page. There is also a handout which is preparation for 'have collocation' activity which is in the form of a mindmap with simple picture categories:love, meals, education, health, water, the five senses, without talking, with speech and fun - formal and informal. |
