  • 22. V. Procedure Another suggestion from Hill (2000): Classroom procedures involve: a) teaching individual collocations b) making Ss aware of collocations c) extending the already-known of Ss by adding collocation restrictions to known vocabulary d) storing collocations through encouraging Ss to keep a lexical notebook.
  • 23. VI. Implications Provide input: text and discourse Provide activities  ask sts to work actively on the chunks Give sts chance for practicing of those chunk productively Repeat and recycle activities with those expressions
  • 24.
  • 26. The British National CorpusUse corpora but be corpus-based, not corpus-bound Concentrate on items - no direct translational equivalence Text and discourse, rather than sentence-based LA is not the lexical syllabus
  • 27.
  • 28. Lack the full characterization of an approach or method.
  • 29. Still an idea in search of an approach and a methodology.We, Ts, should spend less time explaining English language grammar, more time exposing Ss to useful language and doing awareness arising activities. The way we view language affects the way we teach it.
