Hello Readers,

So today i am going to write something about 

Teaching Language through Literature.....

Literature and Language can work together and interact for the benefit of students and teachers. It will lead to the flourishment of interesting ideas, learning, and improved instruction for all. Many teachers consider the use of literature in language teaching is an interesting and worthy perception.

Points to ponder: (Write on any two or all four)

1) What sort of activities or tasks can be designed to teach language using a 'novel' or 'short story'.

            Teaching a novel to English language learners can be a challenging task because of its length. Literature instructs as well as provides pleasures. The teaching of language through Literature not just encourages curiosity towards learning but also keep the students occupied with the language learning process in an interesting manner. The ambience in the classroom changes dramatically with the introduction of literature. There is no doubt that literature will help the learners to get a good command over the language. In other words, language is something that has to be caught and not taught. If literature is made part of the curriculum in technical education, language learning will become a really enriching experience for the students.

2) What sort of activities or tasks can be designed to teach language using a 'poem'.

 While teaching language through a poem (literature), one must know that there still exists a thin line between 'high' and 'popular' literature. But while teaching language, this becomes a secondary concern. Learning a language through poetry can not only improve the opportunities of reading, writing, speaking, and listening but also enhances the rhythmic sense of the learner. Poetry is one of the best ways to encourage students to immerse themselves in learning the language in an interesting and creative manner.
