							| PLEASE, I NEED YOUR TIPS 
 |  
							| Hi, my dear colleague. Hope you have had a nice summer. I need your help. I am going to write an article about the way the Simpsons (of course :D) can contribute to the development of communicative competence: strategic competence, grammar competence, sociolinguistic competence, discoursive competence...in our classrooms. I know I can approach this topic from different perespectives but I �d like to know your opinions and tips. Thanks once again from Andalusia. A big HuG :D |  8 Sep 2009

							| If you give us your work, we �ll give our tips and comments... so if you have an article about The Simpsons, please post it... I am sure you can implement a lot of grammar in one article - tenses, modals, un-countables, there is/are, prepositions etc...

							| I suppose students love The Simpsons worksheets because they are their heroes. All "competences" can be "gained" by watching the films, reading subtitles / scripts, comics etc and trying to find the given grammar point / vocabulary or pronunciation problem etc...
 
 Sorry, I am not a linguist, but why don �t you implement EXAMPLES in your article?
 Your experience? What YOUR students liked?
