38 The Audio-Litigual Method

Now she gives them their first cue phrase, ‘The drugstore.’ Together the students respond, i am going to the drugstore.’ The teacher smiles. ‘Very good!’ she exclaims. The teacher cues, ‘The park.’ The students chorus, ‘I am going to the park.’

Other cues she offers in turn are ‘the cafe,’ ‘the supermarket,’ ‘the bus station,’ ‘the football field,’ and ‘the library.’ Each cue is accompanied by a picture as before. After the students have gone through the drill sequence three times, the teacher no longer provides a spoken cue phrase. Instead she simply shows the pictures one at a time, and the students repeat the entire sentence, putting the name of the place in the picture in the appropriate slot in the sentence.

A similar procedurę is followed for another sentence in the dialog, ‘How are you?’ The subject pronouns ‘he,’ ‘she,’ ‘they,’ and ‘you’ are used as cm words. This substitution drill is slightly morę difficult for the student sińce they have to change the form of the verb ‘be’ to ‘is’ or ‘are,’ depend ing on which subject pronoun the teacher gives them. The students an apparently familiar with the subject pronouns sińce the teacher is no using any pictures. Instead, after going through the drill a few times sup plying orał cues, the teacher points to a boy in the class and the student understand they are to use the pronoun ‘he’ in the sentence. 1 hey chorus

I Iow is he?’ ‘GoodP says the teacher. She points to a girl and waits for the 1 f iss’s response, then points to other students to elicit the use of 'they.’

I maiły, the teacher inereases the complexity of the task by leading the imlcnts in a multiple-slot substitution drill. This is essentially the same lype of drill as the single-slot the teacher just used. However with this <lnll, students must recognize what part of speech the cue word is and herc it fits into the sentence. The students still listen to only one cue limu the teacher. Then they must make a decision concerning where the ■ nr word or phrase belongs in a sentence also supplied by the teacher. The u u her in this class starts off by having the students repeat the original " iiience from the dialog, ‘1 am going to the post office.’ Then she gives ilifin the cue ‘she.’ The students understand and produce, ‘She is going to ilu post office.’ The next cue the teacher offers is ‘to the park.’ The stu-• I> iils hesitate at first; then they respond by correctly producing, ‘She is i i.ing to the park.’ She continues in this manner, sometimes providing a iiib|ect pronoun, other times naming a location.

I lic substitution drills are followed by a transformation drill. This type ul diill asks students to change one type of sentence into another—an dliimative sentence into a negative or an active sentence into a passive, Im rsample. In this class, the teacher uses a substitution drill that requires ilu students to change a statement into a yes/no-question. The teacher nlli is an example, ‘I say, “She is going to the post office.” You make a .lin slion by saying, “Is she going to the post office?”’
