STEPHEN KRASHEN SAYS: INPUT + 1
“We acquire language when we understand what we hear and read, when we understand what people are saying to us, not how they say it.”
STUDYING GRAMMAR SUCKS
“Consciously learned rules have very limited functions: We use them to edit what we say and write, but this is hard to do, and sometimes they can help make input comprehensible, but this is rare.”

STEPHEN KRASHEN SAYS: INPUT BEFORE OUTPUT
“We do not acquire language by producing it; only by understanding it.”
YOU SEE, OUTPUT COMES AFTER INPUT“The ability to produce is the result of language
acquisition, not the cause.”
IMMERSION STARTS AT HOME/CLASS
“Even if you live in the country where the language is spoken, it is hard to get comprehensible input from the “outside world”, especially if you are an adult.”

STEPHEN KRASHEN SAYS:
LANGUAGE LEARNING HAS TO BE FUN
“Language acquisition proceeds best when the input is not
just comprehensible, but really interesting, even
compelling; so interesting that you forget you are listening
to or reading another language.”
Study shows that human beings are drawn to stories. The
best way to acquire/learn is through storytelling/reading.

TPRS•TPR Storytelling is a method for teaching foreign
languages that was invented by Blaine Ray, a Spanish
teacher in Bakersfield, California, in 1990. Blaine Ray
•TPRS is a method of second-language teaching that uses
highly-interactive stories to provide comprehensible input
and create an atmosphere of immersion in the classroom.

•If we truly want our students to be able to speak and write
at any level, we must change the way we teach.

HOW TO CREATE AN EMBEDDED READINGEMBEDDED READING
1. The first reading is at a basic level, easy for any student to
understand. It is a summary or an outline.
2. Each succeeding level adds sentences with additional information
and/or details.
3. The final version is the most challenging. However….
Each and every version of the reading contains the basic reading…
…. and each subsequent level within it.
This scaffolding of the story builds success!!!
