The document discusses the history and development of grammar teaching in England. It describes how grammar originated from Greek and was originally taught through Latin in schools. It then outlines the major developments in grammar teaching throughout history, including a focus on prescriptive Latin grammar in the 18th century, the decline of grammar teaching in the early 20th century due to a lack of research, and its reintroduction in schools towards the late 20th century through government reports calling for improved literacy. The document also discusses different approaches to grammar teaching including behavioristic, communicative, and integrative computer-assisted language learning.

Interpreting is said to be the sixth language skill it is one of the complex skills, as learners need all the four simplex language skills(listening, speaking, reading, and writing) so that they can interpret texts from one language into the other.
This PPT was used in the Workshop with 61 Teachers of English of DPS Society Schools.
It is meant for teachers of Secondary (IX & X) Classes and can be helpful for teachers of Upper Primary (Vi-VIII).

We all use grammar from the time that we can speak in intelligible sentences, because Grammar deals with the abstract system of rules in terms of which a person’s mastery of his native language can be explained. We assume that it all happens naturally and are only confronted with the need to understand and define how English works when we learn another language or attempt to teach English to others. so, let us see about functional grammar.

Learning literature through English Language TeachingIfrad Mahbub
ELT or 'English Language Teaching' indicates to teaching of English to people whose first language is not English. In the process of learning literature, teaching of English comes forward as the most powerful tool in the school bag. The larger portion of people learn English for practical rather than ideological reasons in non-native English speaking nations.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

SECTION 2
2. HISTORY OF GRAMMAR
The word grammar comes from the Greek word gramma
which means “writing” or “letter”.
This root is also found in other English words like
parallelogram and telegram.
In the late Roman period and MiddleAges, students learned
to write and read in Latin, at Grammar School (basic
school).
3. HISTORY OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING
• The English language teaching tradition has been subject to tremendous
change, especially throughout the 20th century.
• Perhaps more than any other discipline, this tradition has been practiced, in
various adaptations, in language classrooms all around the world for
centuries.
• However, grammar has not always been defined in these terms. Originally,
the term grammar, grammatical, referred to the art of writing, as compared
to rhetoric, rhetorical, the art of speaking.
• As used today by many teachers and learners, grammar is loosely
understood to be a set of rules that govern language, primarily its
morphology and syntax..
4. THE DEVELOPMENT OF GRAMMAR
THROUGHOUT HISTORY IN ENGLAND
1.THE ANCIENT WORLD
- Grammar teaching as a foundation for instruction in writing
was took seriously.
- Another perceived benefit was for thinking skills, where
was paired with logic and rhetoric.
- Alexandrian, the grammarians (3BCE) assumed that language
reflected reality. So, they tried to impose the order of language,
able to understand the language of centuries of old texts and to
those realities.
5. 2. THE 18th CENTURY
- It developed prescriptive grammar teaching, and tried to
analyse English grammar as though it was the same as Latin
grammar.
- Grammar teaching in school was mainly about Latin and
avoiding ‘errors’ in English.
- In this era, grammar become more numerous and important.
Teachers believed that through memorizing the rules, it helps
students to apply it in the practice.
6. 3. THE 19th CENTURY
- It developed historical linguistics as an important university research
subject while emphasis on how languages are related but little impact on
school grammar teaching.
- Meanwhile, English literature struggle to establish itself as a
university subject. It saw language as its competitor for the title ‘English’.
- At the end of 19th century, grammar was still perceived as a means of
formal discipline and a means of social refinement.
- However, many teachers aim to improve students when teaching the
grammar.
7. 4. THE EARLY OF 20th CENTURY
-The quality of grammar teaching in English school showed a
steady decline and increasing calls for its abandonment.
-The reason for the decline is the lack of complete university-level
research on English Grammar.The Government said that it is
impossible to teach grammar at schools for the simple reason that no
one knows exactly what it is.
- Another reason was due to energetic campaign on behalf of
literature and it was presented as a liberal and liberating alternative to
the so called ‘grammar-grind’.
8. 5. THE LATER 20th CENTURY (FROM 1960)
- It have two competing trends.
a) Most schools stopped teaching grammar in English. Meanwhile Latin
teaching was also died, so students had no longer systematic
instruction in grammar.This is the educational background of most
young English teachers.
b)English grammar became important to research subject. It was
because English was used as Foreign Language when it comes to
publish the market and partly by the intellectual motivation of
theoretical linguistics.
-Most Universities also have a department of Linguistics or of English
Language where undergraduates study English grammar.This is the
research background of the ‘modern grammar’ adopted by the KS3
strategy.
9. 6. THE END OFTHE 20th CENTURY (FROM ABOUT 1990)
- Reversed the anti grammar trends in school through a series of
major reports on the perceived shortcomings of English teaching.
- Central government decided to promote the teaching of grammar
(though different ministers clearly had different ideas of what this
means) as part f drive to improve literacy standards.This decision are:
a) Controversial because of the bad press that highlighted about
grammar teaching.
b)Challenging because it involves the introduction of a new subject
rather than a simple re-instatement of an existing one, and this
means for syllabus design and teacher’s support.
10. STAGES IN GRAMMAR
Behavioristic
• Interpretive skills develop sooner than expressive skills and that
learning is a developmental process.
• Initially the student might encounter difficulty, their behaviour
change where they easily give up.
• The teacher as a guide and model of competence that learners will
11. • Usually interpretive skills come first, acquired through immersion in the
language, exposure to excellent models, and interaction with interesting
subject matter.
• Fluency in oral and written expression develops gradually, as a consequence
of exposure to good models and pleasant interaction in the second language.
Communicative
• "The role of grammar in communicative language teaching" suggests an
uneasy relationship between two elements: namely, grammar on the one
hand, and communication on the other.
• Communicative language teaching has brought a renewed emphasis on the
role that semantics plays in the definition of language.
12. • Communicative language teaching is fundamentally concerned with
'making meaning' in the language, whether by interpreting someone else's
message, expressing one's own, or negotiating when meaning is unclear.
• Viewing grammar with all of its components helps us as language teachers
understand the complexity of what it means to know the grammar of a
language.
• The goal of language learning in the communicative classroom is for
learners to acquire the grammar of the second language in its broadest
sense, to enable them to understand and make meaning; that is, to become
proficient users of the second language.
13. Integrative CALL
• CALL is with the thought of providing an integrated teaching
Something that will :
• (1) provide realistic, native-speaker models of the language in a
media
• (2) offer a language learning curriculum
• (3) do a needs assessment
• (4) determine the best next step for the learner and provide
that skill area
• (5) record what the student has done, along with an evaluation
• (6) be available at any hour and require no additional pay or
