Structure Chants Teaching English Verb Structures
Structure Chants Teaching English Verb Structures
Most curriculum begins with TO BE, and leaves the students to struggle to recall the pronouns, recall the appropriate verb form, and then to manipulate the parts into a grammatically acceptable order. Structure chants train the tongue, ear, AND CONCEPTS, making these tasks part of an automatic matrix of ability, whether listening, speaking, reading, or writing.
