Strategies to Enhance the Teaching of Reading, Thinking and Writing Skills

Abstract

This paper presents classroom methodologies using the whiteboard as a means of working with students on developing their writing skills. It also addresses reading, thinking and cooperative skills in a carefully mapped out and pedagogically grounded game which can be adapted for use at all levels of language instruction. Both of these methodologies include grammar and vocabulary building elements which can be expanded as deemed necessary. The paper concludes with two examples of the reading-based game ready for use by teachers.
