Practice = Guided Practice is also staged:
– check the understanding of the meaning of the lexical unit
– check the understanding of the form of the lexical unit
– ask learners to use the word providing prompts (e.g. Fill in the gaps with the words from the box)
NOTE! This stage is the most important as it paves the way to free practice. Thus, the more exercises are given on this stage, the freer the later practice is.
– ask your learners to use lexical item independently on a word level
– ask your learners to use lexical item independently on a sentence level
