Organise your work under the following headings:

  1. Description of the group of learners
  2. Identification and analysis of the point of grammar
  3. Assumed knowledge
  4. Outline of the sequence of activities
  5. Analysis of the treatment of the grammar point
  6. Justification of the treatment of the grammar point

  • The point of grammar
  • Analysis of concept
  • Analysis of form

For (4) Outline of the sequence of activities, state the aim of each activity and provide relevant specific detail on what will happen. This is most clearly presented in table form.

For (5) Analysis of the treatment of the grammar point, first briefly introduce the Ellis (2002) framework and use the dimensions of the framework (eg. Explicit description, Data, Operations and the options within each) to organise your analysis.

For (6), Justification of the treatment of the grammar point, first briefly introduce the Thornbury (1999) framework and use Efficiency and Appropriacy as sub-headings. Also refer to other relevant readings on approaches to the teaching of grammar.
