SueAnnan 2017-05-31T17:20:52 feel strongly about teaching literature or poetry in class? join  #ELTChat in 40mins. Just remember the hashtag and… https://t.co/GSzsojjgBp
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:00:29 Hi #eltchat! I teach Lit every day in class, mandatory, though of course to Deaf kids, bit different.
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:01:05 @naomishema Why do you teach Lit? and what sort? #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:01:30 @AdeleRaemer Great. Good to see you #ELTchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:02:10 @SueAnnan Just after a VERY long day of holiday, family, festivities... hope I last ;-) #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:02:19 @AdeleRaemer, welcome to tonight's #eltchat She's an expert on teaching LIT!
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:02:57 I don't see the appeal, myself, but I don't have my students for any length of time #ELTChat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:03:23 @SueAnnan @naomishema Lit has become well rooted in our curriculum, as #Naomishema said: mandatory in Israel #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:03:53 Hello everyone - #eltchat And welcome to new friends!
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:04:04 We teach authentic pieces to the higher level & medium level high-school Ss, simplified to weaker ones #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:04:18 @AdeleRaemer @naomishema What do you teach though?  is it given to you or chosen by you #ELTchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:04:25 @Marisa_C I'm sort of an old friend trying to get back into step :-) #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:05:02 I think familarisation with literary text is hugely beneficial and a great gateway to independent reading later #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:05:23 @AdeleRaemer Good to have you back Adele :-) #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:05:24 @naomishema what kind of material do you use? #ELTChat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:06:02 @Marisa_C I agree! #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:06:09 . We're told to use as vehicle for improving lang &teaching higher order thinking skills. #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:06:10 Anyone else joning? We are talking about using literature in #ELTchat today - short stories, excerpts. poems, the works
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:06:29 Hmmm...I'll talk about literature (and not Literature) such as Aesop's fables...young learners get really excited... :)#eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:07:16 @TheodoreLalos I think YLs like stories anyway, don't they #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:07:21 You can start with bits of short stories - short excerpts for intensive reading leading to extensive outside class #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:07:39 Teaching authentic Lit involves a great deal of background knowledge, with Deaf students spend a lot of time on that #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:08:05 @Marisa_C I usually use graded readers to do that. But the students read at home :-(  #eltchat
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:08:47 @SueAnnan @naomishema Aesop's fables provide a wealth of vocabulary on animals and settings. Plus, YL work on moral issues. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:08:48 @naomishema I take my hat off to you :-) #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:09:10 @SueAnnan Readers are also great - my understanding of a reader is either a set text for all or a book that you borrow - correct? #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:09:58 @Marisa_C Yup. In my case you borrow a book from the school library #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:11:13 @TheodoreLalos @naomishema Nice to work on moral issues with kids. Our French students wouldn't have the level to cope :-( #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:11:19 @TheodoreLalos @SueAnnan @naomishema Even with graded readers you can do  classwork with book cover, images, docs ,… https://t.co/X5PLniSVho
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:11:24 @SueAnnan @Marisa_C #ELTchat In Israel extensive reading is the library books chosen by each student
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:11:31 @naomishema Let's pick your current literature class, how do you approach the lesson? Are there any routines that you follow? #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:12:18 Yes. I don't teach lit in my classes at all . #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:12:34 Pre reading is vital! You have to prepare them with the necessary basic world knowledge 2 understand what is going on #eltchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:12:35 @TheodoreLalos @naomishema #ELTchat There is a set of Key Components which we need to teach for each lit text in HS in Israel
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:12:51 I think we should perhaps draw a line btwn story telling for kind and literary appreciation for higher levels #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:13:35 Then some pre-teaching of vocabulary. We also have a glossary for the story - without it Ss lose thread of plot #eltchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:13:42 @Marisa_C For sure! #eltchat
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:14:00 @Marisa_C @SueAnnan @naomishema Provide pics and get students to retell the story or add a new item and reinvent the story. #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:14:02 For preambles whatever you do with other text is fine but for follow up some langus exploration is I think important #ELTchat
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:14:54 @SueAnnan @naomishema Can't we scaffold the learning process? Aesop's fables are quite graded and short in length. #ELTchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:14:57 @Marisa_C In fact, ANYTHING about language can be taught via lit (and it's more interesting IMHO) #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:14:58 @Marisa_C Is literary apprec. an important part of learning English? #eltchat Shouldn't it be something they do in own lang?
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:15:23 @TheodoreLalos @SueAnnan @naomishema yes, these are standard techniques - literature tho involves some appreciation… https://t.co/XffuewrDay
TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:16:04 @SueAnnan @naomishema We can pre-teach the target language, even grade the language ourselves. ;) #ELTchat

AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:17:32 @Marisa_C @SueAnnan True - I have some students who find lit very hard to relate to (Albeit - the minority) #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:17:55 Since teaching Langston Hughes I've discovered some Ss thought that African Americans were all tourists who decided 2 stay, sigh #eltchat

SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:19:11 @Marisa_C I don't see the need. I think short extracts are not partic. intresting and I don't like poetry in class #eltchat Devil's Advocate
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:19:15 So much isn't taught in schools nowadays - I've become a history teacher too! #eltchat

Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:20:27 @TheodoreLalos @SueAnnan @naomishema You think this cannot be done but only at C1 or C2? #eltchat My experience says otherwise

SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:23:19 @seburnt @AdeleRaemer @Marisa_C I suppose a closed group on FB lends itself to that sort of task #eltchat

TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:24:21 @Marisa_C @SueAnnan True! However, Ss seem not to enjoy the old and favourite Literature anymore! #ELTchat
seburnt 2017-05-31T18:24:32 @AdeleRaemer @SueAnnan @Marisa_C Not really. Needs to be in one spot to easily see threads of discussion. #eltchat
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:24:46 @TheodoreLalos @Marisa_C favourite for who? #eltchat
happytojoinyou 2017-05-31T18:25:16 If students are free to choose what they want 2 read and discuss and do it for pleasure rather than grades, they are more motivated #ELTchat

naomishema 2017-05-31T18:25:23 I make powerpoints of the characters for some stories so as to help Ss remember who is whom #eltchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:25:30 @seburnt @SueAnnan @Marisa_C Right - so that's my point.. Tried doing it in Google Classroom this year but didn't have 1:1 #eltchat
AdeleRaemer 2017-05-31T18:26:02 @naomishema GREAT idea! Have you ever had the Ss do that? #eltchat
seburnt 2017-05-31T18:26:08 @AdeleRaemer @SueAnnan @Marisa_C Does it have to be on a platform SS already use? Ideally yes. Practically, no. #eltchat
Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:26:31 @TheodoreLalos @SueAnnan So, are you against using literature or are you just being contrary? #ELTchat
happytojoinyou 2017-05-31T18:26:33 @seburnt @Marisa_C @AdeleRaemer @SueAnnan Totlly agree and it's when real communication starts #eltchat
Clare2ELT 2017-05-31T18:26:36 Sorry I'm late #eltchat What's the topic / question tonight?
SueAnnan 2017-05-31T18:26:45 @naomishema Good idea. Some books have so many characters , or with similar names you have to keep retracing steps #eltchat
naomishema 2017-05-31T18:26:48 @AdeleRaemer I use it as pre-reading, so no #eltchat

naomishema 2017-05-31T18:29:50 I think on this subject it is hard to compare High-school / university to short term courses #eltchat

Marisa_C 2017-05-31T18:47:13 There are issues of course with indiv T's literary experiences and degree of awareness - e,g. a T from Japan vs a T from KSA #ELTchat

TheodoreLalos 2017-05-31T18:57:31 @SueAnnan @Marisa_C The need to pass the exam and obtain a certificate also affects learners' & parents' attitude towards lit. #ELTchat
RobertTaylorELT 2017-05-31T18:57:38 @naomishema Depends on the source material and the students #ELTchat
