This book is intended for foreign language teachers interested in the approaches used in Rudolf Steiner schools, and also classroom teachers who teach foreign languages. Chapters address these issues: what the language lesson is to achieve; how the language lesson differs from other lessons; lesson design; examples of actual lessons; avoiding the use of English; vocabulary development; approaching grammar instruction; using language terminology in the classroom; insisting on a complete sentence; reading instruction; classroom techniques for introducing new materials; blackboard use; homework; integrating new students; ability grouping; the class timetable; and syllabus design. A series of brief plays to be performed by students, in French and German, is also included, as is a teacher's guide to "Utopie." Contains 34 references to instructional materials and other resources. (MSE)
