Activities for Inclusive Language Teaching - Coursebook + MP3 allango.net – Smith Anne Margaret

Ideas in Action: Activities for Inclusive Language Teaching gives language teachers tools and techniques for embracing and harnessing the diversity inherent in every group of learners. The activities help teachers and learners recognise and break down barriers to learning in the language classroom, allowing each person to be their unique and authentic self while remaining part of the group. Primarily intended for general adult and teenage classes, the ideas can be adapted to most language-teaching situations. The book begins with an overview of the concepts and terminology used when discussing inclusive practices in English-language teaching. Rather than focusing mainly on particular groups of students, it takes a holistic approach to inclusion and guides teachers through the typical cycle of meeting, getting to know, teaching and finally assessing groups of language learners, celebrating their differences along the way. It suggests micro-strategies for nurturing an inclusive learning environment from the first lesson. Additional resources include worksheets for most tasks, including accessible versions for screen-reader users, available through the Delta Augmented app; ideas for differentiating and extending activities for learners at various proficiency levels; and suggestions for adapting activities for online learning.
