Teachers notes How to use this book

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Grammar minutes strategies

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

Grammar minutes can be used in a variety of ways, such as: • a speed test. As the teacher starts a stopwatch, students begin the ‘minute’. As each student finishes, he/she raises a hand and the teacher calls out the time. The student records this time on the appropriate place on the sheet. Alternatively, a particular time can be allocated for the whole class to complete the ‘minute’ in.

Students record their scores and time on their ‘minute journal’ (see page vii).

• a whole-class activity. Work through the ‘minute’ together as a teaching or reviewing activity.

• a warm-up activity. Use a ‘minute’ a day as a ‘starter’ or warm-up activity before the main part of the maths lesson begins.

• a homework activity. If given as a homework activity, it would be most beneficial for the students if the ‘minute’ is corrected and reviewed at the start of the following lesson.

Encourage students to apply the following strategies to help improve their scores and decrease the time taken to complete the 10 questions.

• To use strategies whenever possible.

• To move quickly down the page, answering the problems they know first.

• To come back to problems they are unsure of, after they have completed all other problems.

• To make educated guesses when they encounter problems they are not familiar with.

Diagnosis of problem areas

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Meeting the needs of individuals

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

Grammar minutes provides the teacher with immediate feedback of whole-class and individual student understanding. This information is useful for future programming and planning of further opportunities to practise and review the skills and concepts which need addressing.

Make use of the structured nature of the questions to diagnose problem areas; rather than asking who got 10 out of 10, ask the students who got Question 1 correct to raise their hands, Question 2, Question 3 etc. In this way, you will be able to quickly determine which concepts are causing problems for the majority of the students. Once the routine of Grammar minutes is established, the teacher will have time to work with individuals or small groups to assist them with any areas causing problems.

The structure of Grammar minutes allows some latitude in the way the books are used; for example, it may be impractical (as well as demoralising for some) for all students to be using the same book. It can also be difficult for teachers to manage the range of abilities found in any one classroom, so while students may be working at different levels from different books, the familiar structure makes it easier to cope with individual differences. An outline of the suggested age range levels each book is suited to is given on page iii.
