‘Variety is the spice of life’ and adding variety to lessons is what helps us English language teachers to avoid monotony and to keep things interesting in the English language classroom. Cuisenaire rods have time and again proved a welcome addition to carrying out a lesson. The celebrated figure associated with these colorful blocks of wood/plastic is Caleb Gattegno, a Belgian educator who used them as part of his ‘Silent Way’ approach. He believed that language learning was a…“process that is self-initiated and self-directed…hence the teacher’s role is that of a technician or facilitator” (Thornbury 2006, 205). Originally designed for teaching certain areas in mathematics, Cuisenaire Rods later proved useful for a wide range of activities in the English language classroom. In my own classroom they have proved to be a wonderful and versatile classroom tool and one’s imagination is all that is needed when using them with one’s learners. Featured are some activities and possible approaches in using them to help beginner up to advanced English learners in your language classrooms. |
