ABSTRACT:
A method of teaching students a language utilizing a coded medium through verbal and nonverbal communication. The students unconsciously learn the structure of the language through color, sound, shape/texture, a verb puzzle piece, gestures and grammar stories. The method includes the presentation of a new linguistic structure to the students to elicit linguistic responses from the students. The students are encouraged to respond verbally. A student is then directed to display the linguistic structure using the coded medium. The student response is then reviewed and corrected to ensure that all students use the correct gesture referencing time when addressing the puzzle piece. The teacher moves the coded medium corresponding to the correct punctuation to teach word order, syntax, cohesion and other linguistic features. A second student is directed to respond to the first student verbally and by displaying the linguistic structure with the coded medium. The students are directed to write the linguistic structure and draw pictures of the coded medium corresponding to the linguistic structure. These activities are repeated until quick and skillful responses are delivered automatically. Grammar stories are role played and reinforce the language program. The grammar stories, manipulation of the coded medium and the verb puzzle pieces and suffix word used in the method put language in a time and space relationship. Thus students unconsciously learn the structure of the language through the coded medium, gestures and grammar stories.
