Teaching English through Action: Total Physical Response (T.P.R.). A Right-Brain/Left-Brain Approach to Language Acquisition. A Workshop.
Segal, Bertha E.
Materials from a teacher workshop on the Total Physical Response method for teaching English as a second language are presented. The technique describes the process of first language acquisition, uses physical activities in the classroom to reinforce learning, and allows a long period of receptive language learning before requiring production. The notes give basic procedures for a listening (receptive) lesson, a vocabulary unit, an initial lesson in basic commands, a lesson in body parts, a lesson in classroom objects, a review lesson, and a chart to record student progress.
