Two World Language teachers get together to discuss theory and its application in the classroom.

Over our years of teaching, we have noticed that often students have a breakdown in communication because they forgot the vocabulary word they need, or they just have never encountered it. They also often can't understand content because they don't understand a word that is key. So today Krista and Sandrine are talking about circumlocution. What is it? What does the research say about it? What activities and tasks can we do with our students to help them overcome the language blank they're sure to encounter in their speech?

Please note that this episode was recorded in early September (in case the time reference made don't make sense to you). Krista and Sandrine finish discussing step to incorporate in our classrooms so that our students will store information in their long term memories - because who enjoys being stared at instead of getting a response on a topic that's already been discussed? The information comes from the book "how to teach so students will remember" Ed. 2 by Marilee Sprenger. If you missed part 1, you might want to go listen to it first.

Please note that this episode was recorded in early September (in case the time reference made don't make sense to you). Has this ever happened in your class? You ask a question. No one answers. All the students have a blank look on their face. Come on, we talked about this *yesterday/last week/2 weeks ago/fill in timeframe*. Still a blank look. But you know you taught that. So why do students do that to us? We teach it, they remember it, take a test and when you bring it back up they have absolutely no idea. Krista and Sandrine discuss ways to avoid this problem, and they refer to a book that rocked their world (who knew memory worked that way!). See what they pulled out of their reading in a rare 2 parts episode. And if you want to read the book, it's called "How to teach so students will remember. 2nd ed." by Marilee Sprenger.
