INTRODUCTION

Teaching English in the Elementary Grades (Language Arts) (English 101) is a three-
unit course which emphasizes English as a second language with main focus on language
teaching methodologies to improve knowledge on the structure and fluency in the English
language, and literacy skills, through listening, speaking, reading, writing and viewing. It
consists of content-based lessons that will enhance the student’s skills along with the
application of various teaching strategies in teaching English, the use of ICT to facilitate the
teaching learning process and selecting, designing and organization of appropriate
assessment strategies. Demonstrating knowledge and skills on content and pedagogy
through lesson presentations is an important highlight of this course.
This material is subdivided into four parts: Module 1 (Prelim), Module 2 (Midterm),
Module 3 (Pre-final) and Module 4 (Final). Each module is comprised of lessons depending
on the topics as reflected in the syllabus.
For ease of study, each lesson is structured into segments. To prime students’
thinking, each lesson is presented with an introductory part. After which, they will deal with
the following parts:

Intended Learning Outcomes

Students should make sure that by the end of every lesson, they have achieved these
objectives.

Let us check what you already know

To check on students’ background knowledge and tease their minds, they need to answer this
diagnostic test / pretest. In some lessons, this part serves as a review of previously discussed topic.

It’s time to read and learn!

It is in this part that the required reading for content knowledge is presented. As pre-service
teachers, it is expected that education students should develop the habit of reading. Abraham Lincoln
once said, “A capacity, and taste, for reading gives access to whatever has already been discovered
by others.”

Remember this!

This part captures the key points of the lesson – the takeaways.
