(9)
Using the Total Physical Response (TPR) approach can be a valuable tool in addressing
fear and confusion that learners might experience when introduced to an additional
language, particularly in Grade R and Grade 1. Here are three examples of how TPR can be
used:
• Vocabulary Instruction: TPR can be used to teach vocabulary in a way that connects
words to physical actions. For example, if you're teaching the word "run," you can
demonstrate running in place while saying the word. This helps learners associate the
word with the action, making it easier to remember and understand. For learners who
are nervous about communicating in a new language, this approach can make
vocabulary learning less intimidating and more engaging.

QUESTION 1: (25)
Read the following statement and answer the questions below.
“FAL teachers are also presented with diverse classroom situations where learners
have many different home languages. The learners’ knowledge of English also
varies from communicative to barely communicative. Learners’ attitude towards the
language is also not the same. Learners entering the foundation phase become
vulnerable and nervous to communicate in a new language, especially a language
they do not understand. Learners at this stage of schooling are still developing their
home language and as a result, they become confused and afraid when introduced
to an additional language, particularly in Grade R and Grade 1.”
