Teaching English to Kids: A Journey of Fun Learning
Grammar Unboxed: Teaching structure through meaning to Young Learners.
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Is teaching grammar to children about rules or patterns? In this transformative episode, we dismantle the traditional approach and rebuild it through the lenses of neuroscience and the Natural Approach. Join host Paola Pando as we explore why explicit rule-teaching often fails young brains and how to leverage their innate talent for pattern detection instead.
Drawing on the work of Stephen Krashen, Lynne Cameron, and Joan Kang Shin’s principles, we reveal how to weave grammar seamlessly into the meaningful, playful practices you already use. Discover practical strategies like "Story Grammar Detectives," "TPR Routine Chants," and collaborative play activities that transform abstract structures into tangible, usable language. Learn to shift from being an explainer of rules to an architect of experiences where grammar is naturally acquired.
Tune in to build a classroom where grammar isn't taught, but caught.
