Chapter 8&9!

Chapter 8 and 9 introduce Total Physical Response and the Natural Approach. Both approaches focus on acquiring language naturally rather than forcing to learn. Of course the textbook includes numerous examples and suggestions to implement these approaches in classroom. However, I also realized that TPR could be a useful method to beginning learners only since most abstract concepts won't be able to described by physical responses. Although the Natural Approach describes details for each stage, and I do agree and like some suggestions, giving too obvious directions may hinder potentials of both teaching and learning.
