The art of grammar develops a sensitivity to language; this language sensitivity is formed in reading, hearing, speaking, and writing the language. By attentively reading harmonious language, a student further becomes sensitive to harmonizing his or her own mind. By internalizing grammar’s form and symbols, which is increasing a sensitivity to language, one’s mind is liberated from discordant or confusing thoughts. Teachers can walk a few paths to develop language sensitivity in our students.
Dictation, hearing and writing the language, develops attention, memory, imitation, and sensitivity. Join Andrea Lipinski in this active workshop during which we will practice dictation (bring a pen and paper) before contemplating how to bring dictation into our classrooms.
This is an active workshop in which teachers will engage in a practice before contemplating how to bring it into classrooms.
