New Teacher Tips – Using Oral Instruction to Develop Oral Proficiency
Oral instruction has four main purposes: to introduce, to reinforce, to use, and to bridge the gaps for working on sound, word or text elements.(i.e. a sound/letter correspondence, a word, a sentence or a paragraph of a text.) Teachers should link oral instruction with other aspects of the reading lessons such as developing fluency. For example, if a teacher’s primary focus is to teach the word core, teachers can present the words orally before the stage of reading when students learn to recognize the written forms of words either embedded within a context or in isolation. Teachers may also consider introducing lexical items via games, and activities which can be spread over a number of lessons. “To learn a new language, there must be opportunities to communicate about real things and events” (Barone, p. 89).

Active Learning – Stimulating the Young Mind
Learning activities in the classroom are an important part of teaching. Students thrive on a deviation from the typical lecture-assignment format often seen in classrooms. Classroom activities get kids moving and stimulate their minds. Activities that are taken outdoors can provide exercise and even teach about environmentalism and biology. Active indoor activities can help students burn off energy on rainy or snowy days.
Education, Meaning, Aim and Function
The process of defining the meaning of Education is to problematize its lexicology and re-conceptualize it. An example is illustrated from real day-life. A multinational company involved in the making of advanced pharmaceutical products decides to get rid of its wastes in a cheaper manner rather then waste-treat them. They dump the wastes around the coast of a poorer African continent based on the company’s policy of maximum profits. Are the board of directors in the company educated? They are, one can assume for rhetorical comfort. An illiterate, native-tribe living in the rainforest jungles of Papua New Guinea doesn’t know the meaning of Environmental jargon: ‘Reduce, Recycle & Reuse’; yet, they conserve and sustain the environment, based on the level of skills known to them. Are the people of the rainforest uneducated just because they are illiterate?
