This lesson expands on the quantifiers from the previous lesson. N16.2 – Much-Many-Few-Little-A-lot-Plenty – 2 When teaching a lot of, many and much, ensure that your students are thinking about countable and uncountable nouns, and even how some nouns can be both, depending on the situation. These aren’t difficult to master, though students sometimes need a little assistance to use much correctly. Here are six lessons to help your students gain proficiency: These are areas that require constant reinforcement as students progress, so make sure that you’re prepared to address them. Additionally you’ll need to be able to show the difference between the general and specific use of a noun, and of course, you’ll need to be prepared to concept-check uncountable and countable nouns. To teach quantifiers and determiners you must be ready to demonstrate the difference between a noun and a noun phrase. While some determiners, like the definite article, take a long time to master, others such as every and each acquire the simple application of a couple of rules to use without much hesitation. When you teach quantifiers and determiners it is generally rewarding because it makes students feel as though they are leaving behind those annoying ‘Tarzan-like’ qualities of their English and gaining further naturalness.
Welcome to 2017! We’ve added five lessons to help you teach quantifiers and determiners to your pre-intermediate students.
