Teaching Prepositions Inductively

Hello, everyone! My name is Cris. My name is Ana and this is Great Ideas for Teachers and Students Subtitles are available in English and Portuguese On today's video we are going to share a way to teach prepositions inductively So remember. We use in with months years and longer times, on with days and at with time. Got it? Do you need some active ways to teach grammar Here's a way to teach prepositions using inductive grammar Inductive grammar: a method of teaching grammar in which the students first see the the examples and then come up with the grammar rule by themselves So how do you do that? You don't explain the rules to the students They have to come up with the rules through examples they find in a text Oh, so it's like detective work Right. It's more active. Since the students do the work they are more likely to remember the rules later So let's see an example where students come up with the rules for the use of prepositions of time - in, on and at - in this text about Festivals, okay. There are many examples of in, on and at in the text. So after they read the text students have to answer these questions What words and expressions are there after in? What words and expressions come after at? What words and expressions come after on? After students have answered the questions Then they have to come up with the rule. Get students answers and ask them to complete this preposition pyramid and complete the rules below it Finally ask students to talk or write about their routine using the prepositions they have learned We have prepared this complete activity with the rules and the pyramid and it's available in the description for you To see another video like this click on the card If you liked this video please hit the like button and subscribe to our channel If you haven't already don't forget to ring the notification bell and share this video with your friends follow us on our social media Bye Bye
