What is Intonation?
Why do we need Intonation?
Teaching pronunciation demands a number of challenges. To start up with, teachers know that they do not have enough time in class to pay proper attention to this area of English instruction. When they get the time to work pronunciation, the instruction often adds up to the practice and display of a number of boring and clearly unlinked topics. Repeating sounds again and again), will surely lead to discouraging taste, and bored students and teachers wind up avoiding pronunciation. The most basic components of speaking are profoundly personal. Our self and community awareness are made up in the speech-rhythms of Spanish. These rhythms were acquired in the first year of life and lie inside the minds of us. That is why, students feel uncomfortable hearing themselves with the rhythm of English. They “sound foreign” to themselves, and this is troubling for them, and it can become a major barrier to improve English. We, as teachers can help our students overcome this psychological barrier and other challenges by thinking of the role of pronunciation instruction not as making students to sound native-like, but as helping them to learn the prime elements of spoken English so that they can be basically understood by others. In short, teachers and students can get over the frustrations, difficulties, and boredom often related with pronunciation by focusing their effort on the development of pronunciation that is “listener friendly.” After all, English pronunciation is not about learning a list of sounds or isolated words. Rather, it amounts to learning and practicing the specifically English way of making a speaker’s thoughts easy to follow. This workshop presents an approach to pronunciation that emphasizes the co-relation of several matters of English speech.

Process Description
Objective
TN Language Art Standard: Use strong verbs
and figurative language (e.g., metaphors, similes) for emphasis or creative effect as appropriate to the purpose.
Objective: Students will incorporate metaphors and/or similes into essays to strategically grab the
reader’s attention.
Anticipatory Set
(Introduction)
Use the poem, Hot Fudge Sunday, to review similes and metaphors. Students will identify the similes and metaphors and explain the differences.
Hot Fudge Sunday by Donna Phillips Cold crisp air, like a burst of peppermint, Whisks across my face and colors my cheeks. The sun is a lazy turtle,
Creeping to the edge of the horizon. The ice on the bare tree branches
Reflects the first shred of shivering light. Later in the day the sunny rays will melt the frost,
Like hot fudge melts the ice cream it tops.
I am a sponge soaking in all the glory of the day.
Sequence of Instruction
After the poem introduction, students will use
metaphors and similes to spice up the short stories they have completed. Give students 20-
30 minutes to add metaphors or similes to their stories.
Divide students into small groups where they will share how they integrated similes and/or metaphors into their work. Students should give each other feedback on their work by answering the following questions:
1. Were the similes/metaphors used correctly?
2. Did the similes/metaphors create more
interest?
3. How might the similes/metaphors be improved?
HW: Students will edit their short stories, deciding where and how the new ideas for similes and metaphors should be incorporated. Students should add a minimum of 2 similes/metaphors to their essays
Differentiated Instruction
For students who need more practice in
identifying and
Creating similes and metaphors, provide a list of similes and metaphors. Students will re-write the metaphors as similes and re- write the similes as metaphors.
Example:
Simile- Like a wolf prowling for his next kill, Andy opened the refrigerator door to look for food.
Changed to a Metaphor- Andy was a wolf on the prowl as he opened the refrigerator door to look for food.
Similes
James pushed his way through the crowd like a bulldog to reach the subway on time. The singing that wafted out of the auditorium was warm like honey on toast. Metaphors
The baseball was a speeding arrow soaring to land beyond the outfield fence.
Jenny’s heart was a cold stone, unfeeling and impenetrable.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. Focusing on vocabulary
This lesson focuses on vocabulary. I used the book, Calling the Doves
by Juan Felipe Herrera to help my bilingual students learn new
vocabulary while learning about the biography of the author.
4. Using technology to engage students
I created a power point to encourage my students follow along. I
decided to put the vocabulary words in a Power Point so that my
students can engage into the story while becoming familiar with the
new vocabulary words. I wrote every sentence of the book that had a
vocabulary term into my Power Point. As the teacher reads aloud the
student can follow along while looking at the Power Point.
5. Read Aloud Using technology…
