This document discusses using tasks to teach language to young learners. It explains that tasks should provide both demands and support to encourage learning. Tasks involve preparation, a core activity, and follow up. They should have clear learning goals and balance cognitive, linguistic, and other demands with support like pictures and modeling. An example task teaches past tense verbs through a grid showing a child's weekend activities. Preparation activates vocabulary while follow up has children write the sentences.
Community language learning (CLL) is a language-teaching approach in which students work together to develop what aspects of a language they would like to learn. It is based on the Counselling-approach in which the teacher acts as a counselor and a paraphraser, while the learner is seen as a client and collaborator.
Community Language Learning advises teachers to take their students as “whole person.” Students decide the topic and teachers act to like conselors. The learning is inductive.

Clinical Field Experience B: Humanities Instructional and Engagement Strategies 2
I picked Ms. Dawn’s class at Children’s of America in Fredericksburg Virginia, for this week's field excursion. Unbeknownst to me, parent teacher conferences were held last week, providing me with a wealth of experience listening to/observing parent participation and cooperation with their kid and their child's instructor. Despite the fact that I was not permitted to speak to the parents on Ms. Dawn's behalf, I was given the chance to assist Ms. Dawn in planning the meeting and conducting two of the sessions. Apart from that, I was given the bulk of my time in the classroom to engage and interact with the kids, which frequently needed me to utilize my own personal group problem-solving abilities to keep the students on task and focused on the activities at hand. This was a fantastic opportunity for me to meet with the parents and families of Ms. Dawn's remarkable children as well as watch, practice, and reinforce my own problem-solving abilities.
I've always known that leadership and collaboration are critical in any classroom, but I had to take a step back and evaluate just how difficult it is to manage all of the responsibilities that come with being an educator, particularly leadership, social skills, and collaborative practices. Ms. Paddock was able to provide me with a great deal of guidance as I prepare to teach my own class and work with my own students and families. "Your students' parents will (ideally) be their child's number one fan," Ms. Dawn said, "and as an educator, you ought to be their number one fan as well." Make use of this common ground to tell parents how important their child's success is to you as their educator; parents will appreciate it, and kids will become more interested!"
Educators are aware of how kids develop and flourish. They understand that learning and development processes differ from person to person and across cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, and physical domains. To accommodate these variances, instructors must be able to create and administer developmentally appropriate and demanding learning experiences that are adaptable. The educator meets students where they are, which means they begin with what the student already understands, then they provide guidance and ongoing support as needed. This will change depending on the issue. When introducing new topics, scaffolding is beneficial. The educator scaffolds information and/or assignments based on the student's specific requirements. Educators evaluate individual and group performance on a regular basis in order to plan and alter education to fulfill students' requirements in each area of development (cognitive, linguistic, social, emotional, and physical), as well as scaffold instruction for the next level of growth. The strategy involved when interacting with the students started with first understanding their needs and secondly addressing ...

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

1. CHAPTER 2 : LEARNING LANGUAGE
THROUGH TASKS AND ACTIVITIES
TEACHING LANGUAGES TO
YOUNG LEARNERS
2. OVERVIEW
What task demands and support are
How to balance task demands and support
How to construct a task
By the end of this presentation you
will have an understanding about
of…
We will look at the framework for analysing task from a
learning perspective that takes account of young learners
social and cognitive development.
3. This Presentation include of:
The task as an environment of learning.
Task demands
Types of demand
Task support.
Balancing demands and support.
The importance of language learning goals.
Defining “task” for young learners classroom.
Stages in a classroom task
Hani’s weekend: possible preparation and follow
up.
Task-as-plan and task-as-action
4. THE TASK AS AN ENVIRONMENT FOR
LEARNING
Task are used as a tool for checking how much pupils are
understanding
Children are active learners that urge to find meaning and
purpose for activities that are presented to them and try to
complete the tasks .
Young learners will work hard to make sense of what teachers
ask them to do and come with their understandings of the
purpose and expectation of adults so that's way tasks can be
quickly useful at classroom.
Note: A warning with task is sometimes teachers may not notice
that pupils’ get confusion because of the children are anxious
to please the teacher. They may act as if they understand and
complete the task, but may not understand or learn from it.
Here again, we see the importance of a learning perspective
5. TASK DEMANDS
"The task demands will mean
how hard and how long
people will need to work to
complete it."
Activities should be carefully
thought out and structure for
a target audience.
Task should have both
structure and demands.
6. TYPES OF DEMAND
• Understand the way the grid works to
show times and actions
• Work left to right across columns and
top to bottom
• Understand that the pictures show
past actions
• Recognise the key action in each
picture
COGNITIVE
(related to concept and
understanding of the
world)
• Find the vocabulary to describe
each action
• Find the past tense ending for
each verb
• Put the words together in the right
order
• Pronounce the words
• Give correct stress and intonation
to words and sentences
• Understand teacher’s instructions
LANGUAGE
(related to using the
foreign language and to
uses of mother tongue
in connection with
foreign language
learning)
7. TYPES OF TASK DEMAND
COGNITIVE Deals with the contextualization of language, difficulty
of concepts that are needed to do the task (e.g. use of
graphics, colours, telling the time, etc)
LANGUAGE Determining the language whether spoken or written
Understanding the production
Extended talk or conversation
Genre
Needed grammar and vocabulary
INTERACTIONAL Type of interaction required e.g. pair work in participants in
talk-adult/peers.
Nature of interaction
METALINGUISTIC The use of technical terms about language in production or
comprehension
INVOLVEMENT Degree of ease or difficulty with the task
Links to the child’s interest and concerns
Novelty, humor, and suspense
PHYSICAL How long can the child sit still
Needed actions
Needed motor skills
9. The Type of Task Support
COGNITIVE From familiar formats of graphics
From familiar topics and content
LANGUAGE Re-use of language
Moving from easier to difficult
Using known vocabulary and grammar
Use of L1 to support L2 development
INTERACTION
AL
Type of interaction
From helpful co-participants
From the use of familiar routines
METALINGUIS
TIC
From familiar technical terms to talk about new language
Clear explanations
INVOLVEMENT Can come from content and activity that is easy
Mixing physical movement and calm, seated activities
PHYSICAL Variation in sitting and moving
Use familiar actions
Match to fine motor skills development
10. HOW TO BALANCE DEMANDS
AND SUPPORT
We can here recall the idea of the zone of proximal
development, or space for growth, that children
need for their language and cognitive development.
ZONE OF PROXIMAL DEVELOPMENT + SPACE
FOR GROWTH = what children need for their
growth and development
Note: The zone of proximal development
(ZPD) is the gap between what a learner has
already mastered (the actual level of
development) and what he or she can
achieve when provided with educational
support (potential development).
11. HOW TO STRIKE A BALANCE
THE GOLDLILOCKS PRINCIPLE
A task that is going to help the learner learn more
language is one that is demanding but not too
demanding, that provides support but not too
much support
Language learning is a repeated process of
stretching resources slightly beyond the current
limit/ability, learning new skills and moving on to
the next challenge
For example:
She uses the example of lifting weights, if one starts off using
too much weight (demands are too high), then injury may
follow, but if the weights are too light (Too much support), then
the weight lifter isn’t gaining anything (not learning), so, the
trick is to start off with something just slightly above your
current level (slightly above your ZPD) and then “raise the bar”
12. LANGUAGE LEARNING GOALS
HOW CAN TEACHERS ENSURE THAT THE
BALANCE OF DEMANDS AND SUPPORT
PRODUCES LANGUAGE LEARNING?
Set clear and appropriate language learning
goals
Provide scaffolding for the tasks – breaking down
into manageable steps with sub goals
!!!too many demands will make children anxious,
too few demands will make language learning
boring. Thus teachers must be careful design of
sub goals should help ensure success and
achievement at each step and of the task as a
whole.
13. DEFINING “TASK” FOR YOUNG
LEARNERS
FEATURES OF TASK USE :
Coherent and unify for learners – from topic,
activity and outcome
Have meaning and purpose
Have clear language learning goals
Have a beginning and an end
Involve learners actively
Aim for dynamic congruence – age, socio-cultural
appropriate
14. STAGES IN CLASSROOM
TASKS
Three stage are…
PRE-PARATION –
prepare learners to be
able to complete core
activities
CORE ACTIVITY –
set up through
language learning
goals
FOLLOW-UP – builds
on successful
completion of the
As an example of how the
stages
can combine to produce a
task,
we can see the Hani and
his
weekend, and place the
production of oral
sentences

activity in the center of the
an
imaginary task. We can
15. Hani’s weekend: possible
preparation and follow up.
Core goals: Pupil saying
sentence about each picture in
the gird
Preparation:
1. Activate the vocabulary that will
be needed (actions, names of
object in picture).
2. Help pupils understand the
grammar (teacher speak about
past tense).
3. Let pupils do exercises in pair.
Follow up: The pupils write the
sentence they have constructed
17. TASK AS PLAN vs TASK IN
ACTION
TASK AS PLAN
The task is in plan. Teacher may not know what will
happen when the activity is used. Cannot be fully
evaluated
o TASK IN ACTION
When the task is used in a class

studied…
Those tasks are used as a tool for checking how much
pupils understand.
Those Activities shall be carefully thought-out and
structure for a target audience.
That task shall have both structure and demands.
Different types of demand like language, interactional,
involvement, physical demands, metalinguistics and
