This unit discussed ideas for teaching new vocabulary, grammatical structures, and language functions. Vocabulary has the least consensus on what order it should be taught in, so choosing it depends more on the appropriacy to the lesson in mind, as well as how frequently it is used. It is important to teach meaning, use, word grammar, interaction, spelling, and pronunciation for any new word. However, often it is determined by the course materials. Grammatical structures are generally taught in an order determined by student level and syllabus. It is important to teach meaning, use, forms and patterns of use, and any differences between spoken and written forms. As for language functions, such as inviting, refusing, agreeing, etc., it is important to teach the appropriacy of language based on the context. This material is best taught with lots of emphasis on the activation phase.
