Stages and Techniques of TD

Stage One: developing dialogical skills at a dialogical unit level.

It is aimed at developing the skill of differentiating between different communicative types of responses and reproducing them after the teacher. Ex-ses to be used - are of receptive and reproductive character:

· receptive ex-ses:

· imitation ex-se:

· substitution ex-ses;

· question-answer ex-ses (find – out and guessing games);

· respond to my statements;

· give a proper context to…

· make up a DU by analogy;

· songs for teaching elements of the D;

· jazz-chants; small-talks.

Stage Two: developing dialogical skills above the dialogical unit level.

it is aimed at developing the skills of producing microdialogues with the help of different props:

1) Props to be used here:

· simplified pictures;

· stick-pictures;

· structural dialogue: question – statement + request

question for more information answer;

· based on the beginning/end;

· a monological text;

· a reported speech.

2) ex-ses at giving the proper context to the responses of a D based on simplified pictures;

3) ex-ses aimed at the extension of a D. e.g. Listen to the beginning of the D and enlarge it;

4) stripped dialogues:

5) ex-ses at transforming a M into a D:

· Indirect transformation: listen to the text and discuss it in pairs.

· Direct transformation: listen to the text and reproduce the conversation of the characters;

· Additional transformation: listen to the text and discuss its events, comparing them with the same events in your life;

6) Ex-ses aimed at making a D based on its content rendered in indirect speech. e.g. Listen to the dialogue and cut it short.

7) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D on the basis of its beginning, end or its central part.

8) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D on the basis of the theses of each role.

9) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D on the basis of a series of pictures. e.g. Look at the pictures and try to guess what will happen next or Play one of the roles below (work in pairs).

Stage Three: developing dialogical skills at the discourse level. it is aimed at developing the skills of producing independent dialogues:

1) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D based on a picture:

2) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D based on a verbal visuality: Look at the invitation card and plan the coming week-end:

Please, do join us for a picnic		Our Zhitomir Sports Club invites you to the meeting on…
Come to our tourist club party on…		We request the pleasure of your company at a reception…

3) Ex-ses aimed at composing a D without any props: Discuss in pairs the film/TV program/concert/play you saw yesterday.

How to work at the model-dialogue:

Step 1: listen to the dialogue recorded on the tape and answer the teacher’s questions or say whether it is true or false;

Step2: listen to the dialogue using the verbal visuality (printed text);

Step3: listen to the particular lines of the D, practise their pronunciation and intonation;

Step4: read the dialogue: a) as a whole text; b) in parts;

Step5: reproduce the dialogue, restoring the particular lines of one of the characters;

Step6: reproduce the D in roles (parts);

Step7: extend the lines of the D in accordance with the communicative task;

Step8: transform the D, changing one of the replies;

Step9: make up a dialogue by analogy within the same topic, but in a different situation, between the different communicators, with a different communicative task.

Step10: make up a topic-centered dialogue based on microdialogues.
