Using Teacher Cards to practice answsers to Yes/No questions

[helen100463]

I find this reply rather rude and negative. This short film can be a good starting point for a new teacher to reflect on their practice. I I thought as educators we were supposed to be encouraging and sensitive to our learners - colleagues are not included ?

A common mistake in many classrooms is to focus on teaching and especially drilling language before either introducing the meaning of the phrase or checking students' understanding of such. A wider choice of cards such as: fly, drive a car, do a cartwheel, would aid and check understanding in a fun way before going into meaningful pattern practice. Your current presentation is, at best, dull and liable to switch students off and at worst unnatural and guaranteed to confuse young learners.
