Next they are taken through slides that will introduce the principles of ER, the benefits of doing ER, and contrast ER with IR. Next are slides comparing and contrasting graded readers, leveled readers and authentic materials and two simple role-plays for choosing materials. Finally, I have a page with links to sites where available ER materials can be explored online. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=715806 This is a stand alone instructional resource (STAIR) that I created to provide my students with basic comma usage review and practice. The powerpoint is interactive; I start by modeling how sentences sound with and without commas. The powerpoint also asks students to make observations on when commas are used and then provides students with notes on three major comma usage rules. Finally, students test their understanding with a short quiz. If students get a question wrong they can revisit the notes or try answering the question again. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=710567 Presentation on Modal verbs http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=707917 the web series has 40 episodes that cover various topics of biology.
