French Grammar Through Actions shows you step-by-step how to TPR 50 grammatical features in French. Now in the 21st century, I think everyone on earth in the business of language learning has heard about Dr. James J. Asherâ€(TM)s Total Physical Response, known worldwide as TPR.
Science supports the effectiveness of TPR to move students of all ages and all languages towards fluency. We know now that language learning does not begin with speaking. When speaking appears, language learning has already taken place. In my book, I review, in simple, non-technical language, how this all happens.
Teachers at all levels are sometimes puzzled about the most effective way to help their students learn grammar. Over the years I have discovered scores of innovative ways to teach grammar using the powerful TPR approach. In this book, I share these secrets with you.
Best wishes for continued success,
