PRESENTATION TECHNIQUES AND INTRODUCTORY ACTIVITIES

In order to get student's attention , teacher should use some techniques like introductory activities that help us to introduce the new topic where students will focus on meaning instead of form. there are two ways to present a topic, PPP where teacher follos a process and presents a situational presentations rather than sentence isolated, so students will have a meaningful learning through student centered in eliciting, and also controlled practice like in choral drill. in the other hand, there is Task-based learning in which students have to complete a tasks from teacher's situation, and students will have a comprenhension about the topic and fell comfortable to produce the language. At the end it will be a confidence-building approach through activities like realia, viasul aids, and so on. Teachers should not forget to start the class with a warm-up to wake up students and raise up energy and also lead in to introduce the topic.
