REFLECTION<br />
Think about <strong>the</strong>se comments from teachers. Which do you agree with and why?<br />
1. I don't need to plan <strong>the</strong> <strong>language</strong> I use for giving instructions. I just think<br />
<strong>of</strong> what to say at <strong>the</strong> time and I know when my learners understand.<br />
2. My learners speak <strong>the</strong> same LI as I do. So it's much better to use <strong>the</strong><br />
mo<strong>the</strong>r tongue for setting up activities and checking understanding.<br />
3. I have a collection <strong>of</strong> different phrases that I use for managing my<br />
classes. I choose from <strong>the</strong>se phrases when I am <strong>planning</strong> my lessons. I<br />
teach different levels, but I find I can use <strong>the</strong> same <strong>language</strong> for each<br />
level.<br />
