I try to upload the pics and things but it didn't work and wasn't easy so i get mad now!!!!!I have to calm down first then i'll be back in a few minutes.................................................I think now it's time to share............I have read this book for ages and i think i should finish it now. Actually I should finish sooner than this but as many reasons like being lazy.........ok forget it!!! English Grammar and Teaching Strategies by  Joy Pollock and Elisabeth Waller1.      Sentences: try to emphasize on sense of language structure -games with word on cards. Each parts of speech is represented by a particular color on this gameFor example     
Topics Colors
Verb Red; run, eat
Noun Blue; man, lion
Adjective Green; bad, good
Article Black; a, an, the
Pronoun Purple; he, she, they
Preposition Brown; in, on, at
Conjunction Yellow; with, and
Adverb Orange; quickly
·       If the same color code is used throughout the school, there is an automatic reinforcement by all teachers & a form of revision that some children find very helpful. 2.      Nous: there are 4 kinds of nouns      Common: non-specific person, place or things      Proper: specific person or thing      Collective: collection of people or things      Abstract: emotion, concept, feeling

I think the things I have read I already know it but I read it because I just try to remind myself what I have learnt and what I want to have before the practice teaching. I’m lazy to type it all so I’ll do the exercise on the internet instead or I gain some vocabularies from the book I’ve just borrowed ‘ 1100 word you need to know’….

I got one vocabulary...

Today i got one word from the book shop. The sentence is "A house without boos is truely a bleak house"; bleak means lacking in warmth, life, or kindliness.I know it doesn't really concern with my topic, but at least i did something.   

What i've done!!!!

Again i didn't up my blog quite often as it should be. I think my self-study doesn't work cuz i didn't follow my schedule. I read what i want but not what i have to do. By the way i try to remind myself that my goal is to improve my grammar through reading. I've started. I've just read the book named" English Grammar and Teaching Strategies". This was my first time enjoying reading grammar. I got that in general rule to teach grammar not too complex is try to connect rule by rule not teach separately only a rule. I show later how…..i have to go helping my mom doing dinner. See you soon.
