- Provide a context. In order to elicit the target language, get the students really interested in, for example, a character, a situation (this process will vary according to the profile of each class).
- Help students to say the target language. Make a point of actually asking the students to say something (rather than just listen to you)! Make it clear what the target language is (it can be confused with instructional language).
- Provide a written record. Make a point of putting up (on the board) the written record directly after initial oral work. Make sure that the students write the written record down (and in a particular section of their notebooks).
- Personalize the target language. Always ask the students to apply the target language to their own lives. Sample teacher language: So it’s nearly the end of December now.

- Do some grammar exercises. Some people are happy to do grammar exercises. They might even enjoy it, a bit like doing a crossword or sudoku puzzle. If that's you, that's absolutely great!
- Look it up! Even if you're not going to do practice exercises, it's really useful to have a grammar book with clear information and explanations. Our Grammar reference section will also help you whenever you want to know how a particular bit of language works.
- Practise using the grammar you know. OK, I have a question for you. Does studying grammar help you speak English better? What do you think? If you're thinking Yes … Well, sort of, that's basically what experts think too.
- 'Notice' correct grammar. There's another really useful thing you can do to improve your grammar. It's called 'noticing'. Noticing means paying attention to language patterns when you hear or see them.
In upper elementary school (Grades 3–5), grammar instruction entails helping students communicate their written message with clarity and correctness so that students can make appropriate choices about grammar, usage, and mechanics to improve their writing.
