Teaching grammar means facilitating language students to make use of linguistic forms

accurately, meaningfully, and appropriately

of it.

Learning grammar is the process that demands interest,

attention, patience to acquire that language satisfied enough. Especially, if students who have just started
learning language are interested in and highly motivated from the beginning of the course they will notice
their progress on learning soon and they will continue their study not being worried. As we know that,
mostly classes are heterogeneous: some students acquire easily, others have some difficulties in learning.
The effective way of preventing such situations is using different interesting communicative activities
relating to the topic in teaching grammar because games and activities are always played with a high
interest by everyone.

As

Penny Ur

suggests in his book

A Course in Language Learning

(1991), there are three very

important sources of interest for children in the classroom:

pictures, stories, and games

. Some years ago,

I wrote an article, starts his speech

Penny Ur

(1986), which began with words: ―I am not, in principle, in

favor of the use of games in language teaching‖. This was a serious argument. Games are essentially
recreational ―time out‖ activities whose main purpose is enjoyment; language study is serous goal-
oriented work, whose main purpose is personal learning. Once you call a language learning activity a
―game‖, you convey the message that it is just fun, not to be taken too seriously: a message I consider
anti-educational and potentially demoralizing. Very occasionally we do play real games in the classroom,
(at the of the course, for example, or as a break from concentrated work); but to call something a game
when our goal is in fact serious learning may harm the learning-and, indeed, spoil the ―game‖! – as well
as being dishonest.

Having studied five researches of numerous scholars I gained information about current practices

in teaching grammar. For this research, it was intended to compare two ways of teaching grammar:

1)

traditional way of teaching grammar (giving the explanation of grammar rules and doing

some exercises from traditional course books);

2)

non-traditional way of teaching grammar (particularly, having communicative activities).

If we look back to the history of the development of teaching grammar attention has been laid on

traditional methods, teachers trying to attempt only recently new modern methods, all these attempts
being considered to make the student become more interested in the English language. But the question
that comes up is the following: are we sure that these methods actually work? We all know that the
traditional way of teaching is very enjoyful for a student - he doesn‘t have to think too much, he just notes
down the information, and then utilizes it in exercises. The contemporary methods make students put their
brain to work, communicate better, engage in conversation, thus acquiring the new knowledge during the
English classes, at school. Starting from the hypothesis that traditional methods do not exactly assist the
student acquire English language more accessible and that they definitely do not make the English class
relaxing, I am going to prove in the following statement that modernized methods improve students‘
knowledge and evolve grammar more easily and in a more entertaining way than the traditional ones. All
these activities are meant to broaden the students' horizon and make them realize that grammar is not only
theory, but also practice and fun.

Moreover, I tried to experiment my students by using both traditional and non-traditional way in

teaching grammar. The Group A was taught using communicative activities to acquire the grammar
points while the Group В had lessons explaining the rules and doing grammar exercises based on the
topic. Most of the students in Group A had less difficulties in comprehending the grammar rules as the
various games helped them to understand the topic easily while the students in group B were busy with
analyzing the topic. In the beginning of the lesson to group A I made a presentation with animation. As
my topic was Past Continuous Tense I included the structures and authentic materials which had been
simplified to help them make up sentences on their own. Unfortunately, course books do not provide with
detailed grammar knowledge. More practice will be essential in the classroom, using group work and pair
work. My next step was practice which consisted of various kinds of extra exercises and activities. Pupils
are more enthusiastic when they enjoy the class, so it is a vital part of the lesson. The most interesting
process was the game ―Alibi‖ in which we have the students create the crime they are going to
investigate. It is similar to the murder mystery ―Clue‖. I divided the students into two groups suspects and
detectives. I needed more suspects and 2-3 detectives.

The suspects each have to create a story of where

they were and what they were doing at the time of the crime. They are then questioned by one of the
detective students. The detectives must ask questions using Past Continuous by only asking the time of
the murder. For instance: What were you doing from 3 a.m till 5 a.m on Sunday? What was the doctor
eating?

Then I set up a jury and have the class vote as to who is guilty and why they don‘t believe in

Alibi.

Furthermore, the process of teaching grammar to group B began with the explanation of the Past

Continuous tense by presentation. Then I asked them to make up sentences in Past Continuous without
looking on the course book. So, majority of the pupils could not do the tasks as they only used to doing
the exercises only by learning the rules by heart. But when I compared the tense with the target language,
they easily underlined the similarities of both languages.

In conclusion, there is a variety of activities and techniques in teaching grammar developed by

scholars. From my point of view, traditional methods do not exactly help students learn grammar easily
and they definitely do not make the English class enjoyable and interesting. So, the communicative
activities make students brain use and meant to enlarge the students‘ horizon and let them know that
grammar is not only theory but also practice and fun.

When the term research is brought-up in discussion, teachers tend to scramble for creative and

effective methods to teach these concepts. The concept of research as an innately human trait is grounded
in the day-to-day processes we employ to make decisions ranging from simple to complex.

United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) defines research as

systematic and creative actions taken to increase knowledge about humans, culture, and society and to
apply it in new areas of interest. Scientific research is the research performed by applying systematic and
constructed scientific methods to obtain, analyze, and interpret data. Scientific research is the neutral,
