I Introduction TPR（Total Physical Response）is an effective and helpful method being used in primary school.It can be developed to reduce children‟ stre when they are studying foreign languages.Also it can arouse students‟ interests of learning English, and develop their intelligence.Meanwhile, TPR is an efficient and appropriate way that is a great helper for teachers in organizing claes, using TPR will make claes active and dynamic.In this article, the author will present advantages of TPR methods to readers, and then the author will demonstrate some effective teaching activities to them, and also illustrates how to use them in English claes.Following, the author analyzes children‟s learning psychology on children‟s learning English, which might help teachers understand what things influence children‟ studying are and improve the teaching quality.Finally, it will display some limitations in conclusion part.1.1 The Definition of TPR Total Physical Response(TPR)is a language teaching method built around the coordination of speech and action;it attempts to teach language through physical(motor)activities.(Asher, 1966;79-84)Developed by James Asher, a profeor of psychology at San Jose State University, California, people can acquire a foreign language by acquisition of comprehensible input through reacting imperative drills and other activities in claes, which is just like babies learn their first language.(Asher, 1996)
In a developmental sense, Asher sees that this is almost the same thing between succeful adults‟ second language learning and children first language acquisition.(Asher)He claims that speech directed to young children consists primarily of commands, which children respond to physically before they begin to produce verbal responses.Asher feels adults should repeat this procees by which children acquire their mother tongue.It is a very effective way to aid learning second language.………The method relies on the aumption that when learning a second or additional language that is internalized through a proce of code breaking similar to first language development and that the proce allows for a long period of listening and developing comprehension before production.……（Asher, 1969;13-17）
TPR is primarily intended for ESL(English as a Second Language)teacher, although the method is used in teaching other languages as well.(Asher)
……..TPR is when students initially hear commands in their second language, respond physically to the commands(like raising their hands, jumping in place, or walking to the door)and then later produce these commands orally and in writing.TPR leons have student‟s complete activities by using physical motions or visual aids.They practice new material by seeing, touching, or performing the concepts taught.It seemed like a really fun way to learn English…….(Degregori and Trithart, 2004)
1.2 Background of the Study
Some educators believe that one of the most important aspects of foreign language acquisition depends on listening comprehension first.The importance of the language learning order was emphasized by Harold E.Palmer.He suggested that in order to acquire main speech skills, listening and speaking, learners should study step by step through the four phases: perception, recognition, imitation and reproduction.(Palmer, 1925)He further claimed that perception and recognition should come before imitation and reproduction.Imperative drills he proposed aimed at establishing the foundation for internalizing a foreign language through the first two phases.In this sense, some similarities can be found between imperative drills and TPR.（WATANABE and KAWABUCHI;p53-54）
Palmer also referred, such as subconscious comprehension, which is defined as 'the art of understanding connected speech(spoken or written)without conscious effort, analysis or translation' and 'the incubation period', during which time 'a vast number of units are cognized in all their aspects: sounds, combinations, and succeions of sounds, and the semantic values represented by all of these.(Palmer, 1917)
More recently, Krashen could be seen to have agreed Palmer in proposing similar constructs: the input hypothesis and the silent period.Krashen aumed that learners can acquire the target language through large quantities of comprehensible input, which is slightly above the learner's present level of competence.(Krashen, 1982)
1.3 Significance of the Thesis 7 At first, the general objective of TPR is to teach oral competency at a beginning level, however after this method has been in practical for a long period time, many educators claimed that the most important thing of TPR is that a TPR course aims to produce learners who feel relaxed and pleasure when they are obtaining English, thereby they can become confident and relaxed communication with native speakers.TPR method can be developed to reduce peoples‟ stre when studying foreign languages and thereby encourage pupils to persist in their study beyond a beginning level of proficiency, and more effective in developing pupils‟ interest of learning English.In this thesis, the author tries to present how teachers use TPR method to help children in primary school claes.Many teaching activities are based on imperative drills.Teachers will set lots of task to let children finish, some of them look like sports‟ goals, arts‟ task.Whatever goals are set, it can be achievable through the use of action-based drills in the imperative forms, which always make students are very exciting in cla.In another place, it can also help teachers make claes vivid and dynamic.Total Physical Response techniques are very useful for young children particularly before they begin to read and write.Helping young children learning English by making them found learning English is very appealing, and then loving their English claes.It‟s a good beginning to learn English in future studies.1.4 Organization of the Thesis In this thesis, the author tries to manage to illustrate a variety of teaching drills of TPR in details, which include types of TPR activities.The whole thesis includes four important parts, which are the definition of TPR，the literature review of TPR studies, psychology of children‟s learning state, and the application of TPR methods in claroom.At the end of the thesis, the writer makes a conclusion from the study of TPR teaching method, trying to reveal lots of advantages in using this pedagogy, the author also wants to show some disadvantages to the readers.II.Literature Review The previous researchers considered that TPR research opened up the concept for children and adults acquiring another foreign language, and comprehension is a key point to learn a new second foreign language and it‟ s also one of the most important things concluded from TPR method.Succe can be aured if comprehension is developed before speaking.……One important reason: Everywhere on earth in all languages throughout history, there is no instance of infants acquiring speaking before comprehension.Comprehension always comes first with speaking following perhaps a year later……..(Asher, 1983)
TPR was developed to teach foreign languages for people of any and all age groups.With TPR students hear commands in their second language, respond physically to the commands(for example, raising their hands, jumping in place, or walking to the door)and then later produce the commands orally and in writing.It is linked to the theory of memory, which will form a long-term retention, if something is always repeating all the time.(Degregori and Trithart, 2004)
2.1 The Benefits of TPR
In the following context, many benefits of TPR will be shown in the three obvious features and some experiments, which will explain how students have accomplished in English study through using TPR method.2.1.1 Succe with Children’s English Learning
Dr.James J.Asher first described the TPR method in his book “Learning Another Language through Actions”.He and other linguists observed the following Characteristics about succeful language learners: 1.……Good language learners achieve fluency faster when they are immersed in activities that involve them in situational language use …
2.……Good language learners often start their language learning with a period of silence as they watch the effect of language on others……..3……Good language learners show comprehension by succefully accomplishing language-generated tasks……
4…… Good language learners focus on overall sentence meaning rather than a sentence‟s grammatical parts……
5…….Good language learners make faster progre when the language of instruction is consistent(though limited)on a daily basis, and……
6.......Good language learners make faster progre when the content involves language that is clearly usable or valuable outside the claroom…………….(Asher, 1977;117)
He also considered that these are similar things between the succe of the Foreign Language Acquisition and children whose mother tongue is the proce of acquisition.For children to learn in their native language when they initially through the actions of parents said that the response instructions, such as “Pick it up” and “Put it down”, children learn to speak before they understand the instruction from the adults, therefore, there has a long time called silence period, a language acquisition time, children just listening but not speaking during this time.And when children get through the period, and it is easy to learn the new target language.Believe that students who begin to learn using TPR do have better listening comprehension.(Asher, 1966)
……..One study by David Wolfe and Gwendolyn Jones(1982)fulfilled the same research the benefit of TPR has.Wolfe and Jones integrated the TPR strategy in a Level I Spanish cla.For their experiment they divided the students into two groups to use this method.For one group was taught using the TPR strategy twenty minutes a day, while the other group was taught the usual traditional manner.Results showed that significant educational differences on the unit tests provided by the publisher.Experimental subjects also expreed greater satisfaction with their Spanish course and their Spanish teacher…….(Wolfe and Jones, 1982)
2.1.2 Three Obvious Features It is one of the main aims of English teaching in primary schools to stimulate pupils' interests in English and to develop their enthusiasm for learning English.TPR has three strong features for English learning, which are high-speed understanding of target language, long term retention, and zero stre, testifying TPR help students learn English succefully.2.1.2.1 High-speed Understanding of Any Target Language Some former experts claimed that talking and comprehension are located in different parts of the brain.TPR will input some new information into people‟s brain and then have reaction out immediately.Students understand what their teachers are saying by doing physical actions, which is a high-speed understanding of acquiring their target language.It‟s just like infants understanding their parents‟ imperative tasks.For instance, “baby, look at mom,” “baby, say mom, dad”.etc, which are real situation in people‟s life, so TPR aims to create claes that looks like in real life, thus it could accomplish high-speed understanding of English.Here is an example of how students‟ brains are proceing information at lightning speed: [1] “Stand” means to rise up from their chairs;their bodies immediately go from sitting to standing when they heard the instructor say, “Stand”.Also, “walk” means to move forward, their bodies walk forward when the teacher said, “Walk.”.These strange utterances must be valid.Once they understand, they can use this skill to move over into the left brain with traditional exercises in speaking, reading, and writing.Then return to the right brain with more TPR to understand another sample.Then use that understanding to switch to speaking, reading, and writing.2.1.2.2 Long-term Retention This method claims to guarantee the long-term retention of English, since the use of physical actions while or after listening helps to gain sound and meaning most effectively.This study reveals that TPR is an effective method to promote long-term retention of the target language in Japanese 7th graders.TPR creates facts which make for long-term comprehension.At lightning pace, the student's brains proce information like this: “I actually stood up when the teacher uttered the alien direction: 'Stand.' It is a fact.It is true.It actually happened;therefore, I can store this in long-term memory.” The result is TPR can achieve long-term retention.It can be found that some evidences are some former researcher‟s experiments from the following thesis.One study by Valerie Marsh described TPR as “the most effective method for teaching long-term retention of vocabulary”(Marsh, 1997;25).According to Marsh, one of the key components of TPR is “the low level of stre which enhances fluency, invites participation and increases motivation”(Marsh, 1997;25)
…..At Stockdale High School in Bakersfield, California over the past three years, 100 of the students learning through TPR have scored 3 or higher on the A.P.exam.Of these students, seventeen were true beginners who took the test in their third year of Spanish, and four were true beginners who took the test in their second year of 12 Spanish.Although formal grammar instruction in TPR is delayed, test results show that grammar was neverthele succefully acquired early on in the program.……
In another place, the powerful feature about vocabulary retention, one of the reasons TPR interests so many researchers are because they had observed many students struggling with vocabulary retention.This is not good in any foreign language claroom because in order to complete leons and move forward with subject material, students need to retain vocabulary.It just like as the author had mentioned, when a teacher said “stand” , students will raise their bodies from their chairs, thus they will probably understand and remember what “stand” means and know how to use this word in the same conditions.2.1.2.3 Zero Stre Dr.Asher believed that carrying out the activities of the body language teaching is a good way to make students acquire a new language in a harmonious atmosphere.Students respond to commands that require physical movement.It is also very efficient and quickly pedagogy.The aim is make learners first start hearing before speaking, and meanwhile reduce students‟ preure in learning a second language.(Asher, 1974)
In TPR cla, Student will find it is funny and easy, and then they will enjoy getting up out of their chairs and moving around.Simple TPR activities do not require a great number of preparations on the part of the teacher.“TPR is aptitude-free.”，according to Asher.It is inclusive working well with a mixed ability cla.It is common that people probably can do a good job in a no stre atmosphere, so even are children when they are learning a new language.Fortunately, TPR make it come true.Students may acquire words, phrases, even sentences through physical actions, playing games, and storytelling.All in all, they feel happy when they are learning English;therefore they will become centered roles in claes.III Psychology of Children’s Learning State
Students who are at the age of 5 to 12 are very lively and vigorous;they never stop to listen to an English grammar cla, because they are very easy to distract.If teachers still use a grammar teaching method in a primary school, they must be very difficult to complete leons and move forward with subject material, and the worst thing is students will lose their interests in learning English, some of them even hate the English claes.However, if a teacher uses TPR in his or her claes, the problem must be solved.3.1 Distraction of Children’s Attention
It is easy to everyone to lose their attention in a boring leon, especially children.Claroom distraction is a very ancient problem for many teachers.Students whispered, paed notes, and daydreamed during cla;however whether teachers should think about why children are always like that, what can change this situation, how solve this problem.If they acce TPR in the claroom, distraction problem must be getting far away from it.3.2 Use TPR to Solve the Problem of Distraction If teachers use activities of TPR in their claes, like this kind of problem may be solved easily.They can use the main theme is “Listen and Act”，that is imperative drills.Here some examples:
[2] Method one: Listen and act Procedure:
Target Language: stand up, sit down, warming up Target Grade: Kindergarten to Junior High 1
Have students do the following actions.Commands supporting vocabulary …Stand up, sit down.Hands up, hands down.Stand up, and bow.Sit down, sit down.And clap.Stand up, sit down.Hands up, hands down.Stand up, and bow.Sit down.Sit down.And cheer!
Come on, louder!
Stand up, sit down.Hands up, hands down.Stand up, and bow.Sit down, sit down.And cheer...(Graham)
Method two: Touch
Choose two students and add more vocabulary that are in the claroom---such as book, pencil, paper, desk, floor, teacher—and add to the commands put, place, scratch.Use the following type of commands repeatedly in arbitrary order, alternating pairs of students from time to time until all the students clearly understand what these commands and actions mean.For example: [3] Put the pencil on the desk.Scratch your head.Scratch your arm.Put the paper in the box.Put your hands on your head.Place the box on the teacher‟s desk.Scratch your head and arm.”
(Ren, 2001;11)
From these TPR methods, we can see that teachers will draw students‟ attention in claes.Because in order to finish their teachers‟ commands, students have to concentrate their attention on the command words, thus they are likely to remember those words by behaving them repeatedly.In the meanwhile, students probably think that learning English is such an easy and cheerful task, and they must be fond of English claes.Method three: Listen and draw
It is similar to acting out physically, but in this type, the students are drawing picture, diagrams on paper.“This sort of activity works is very well as an information gap activity between pairs of students.”(Wang, 2002;90)Here is an example:
[4] One student draws a simple picture and then tells his/her partner how to draw it in English.Neither partner can look at each other‟s drawing during the task.After they have completed the task, they can compare their pictures to see how similar they are.Other way: according to last example.“Introduce the word draw.This opens up a rich network of things a teachers can ask their students to do.Start very simply with the familiar words that the students have already internalized through TPR.For example:
[5] Draw a book
Draw a ball
Draw a hand
Draw a box
Draw a hand on a desk.Draw a window and a hand and book.”
The concrete staff is much easier to understand and remember than abstract staff for people, in particular, primary school students.The more detailed staff is, the easier students can memorize.So if teachers ask them to draw something, they are likely to have a brainstorm to figure out some interesting pictures, which may develop their imagination.After students finished their works, teachers may award some special works, which can raise students‟ interests of English Claes, and then they probably acquire English in nature way.In another place, it is a good start to students, enhancing their listening skill.It is very important of students to have a good state while listening.Students should get clear that listening is the first step of any language acquisition;they should pay more attention to learn it well at the very beginning.Listen carefully also can solve the problem of distraction.…“Psychological linguistics regards listening is involved with the perception of a language: Perception is to turn the voice into meanings，and it is an analysis of the language signal perception.The proce of the language perception is an activity of the short--time memorization.”…(Zhang, 1996;1)
IV the Application of TPR Methods in Claroom 4.1 The Activities of TPR-Physical response Everyone learns to comprehend much faster than they learn to produce.At any stage in the learning proce, comprehension is always the most significant in foreign languages acquisition.Children may not be able to give a linguistic response to teachers‟ instructions but they can give a physical response.For this reason, a teaching technique based on commands is often used with young children.4.1.1 The Pointing Game With a small group of students, use a collection of pictures(such as those one might find in a mail order catalog)to instruct concepts that have been taught.Ask students to point to various specific body parts, colors, clothing items, etc.now let‟s look at some examples.[6] Point to the window!Point to the book!Show me the book!Put the book on the desk!Put the blue book on the desk and the red book on the chair!Draw a cat under the tree!
Children will be willing to present their comprehension through a physical action long before they are willing to give a linguistic response.Moreover, the use of real objects in the claroom and the use of picture flashcards allow the teacher and children to respond to language long before they can respond linguistically.This method also can improve students‟ capability of response and develop their left brain, becoming more intelligent.Certainly, the most important thing is enhance those words teachers command repeatedly.Teachers can use this game in claes;first of all, they should tell their students some supporting words in this game.For instance, “point” means use your finger direct the staff that instructs commands, and “show” means have something a look at to everyone, etc.Tell students to give actions to their teachers when hearing commands.If they want to finish the tasks, they have to concentrate and listen carefully.4.1.2 Identifying Emotions
After students have acquired simple commands such as “cry” or “laugh,” pictures can be placed acro the front of the room that clearly demonstrate such emotional reactions.Students can be asked to take the picture of a person displaying a specific reaction.Later, this same procedure can be extended to other kinds of descriptions of emotions.(Someone crying, someone laughing).Later this same procedure can be extended to other kinds of descriptions of emotions, perhaps more subtle ones(someone who is sad, someone who is angry).This game is like a role play some times, being difficult to understand emotional words which are too abstract;teacher will use this action game to give their students hand to grasp these untouched words.When students acting trainers‟ orders, they may comprehend what feelings are like.4.1.3 Following Recipes At much later stages, making birthday cakes, baking cookies, or preparing dishes can provide a TPR experience, and it can also involve students in the cultures of other countries and those within the United States.First of all, display all the ingredients for any given recipe and introduce each item, one by one.And then, show each student with a written recipe.An extra large version to which you and the students can refer can be placed at the front of the room.While you or a student reads the recipe, other students can measure, mix the ingredients, and so on.As a follow-up, students can bring in favorite recipes to share.These can be put together to form a cla recipe book to which others can be added.TPR is a pedagogy applying to bring in a real English environment to ESL.In this game, students will pick up a great many of cooking technique, making cakes, baking cookies.They must have a wonderful time in English claes.In the meantime, they probably obtain the target language in the claes.However, the instructor maybe more hard-working, they have to organize students to tidy up the claroom after claes.4.1.4 Information Gaps Information gaps can be created in which one student has information that another does not have but needs.One student may give a set of directions or commands to another student, who will carry them out to meet some stated goal(e.g.making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich).There are many kinds of information gaps, which include shopping information gaps, direction information gaps, puzzle information gaps, etc.for example:
[7] Shopping Information Gaps: Step 1: Teachers let students make two sheets, one of is A sheet, the other one is B sheet.Step 2:
Giving them the supporting words and sentences:
What did he buy in the supermarket? He bought a box of chocolate.How much was it? It was 50yuan.Etc.Step3: Ask students to finish the sheets in pair.In this activity, students can practice capability of question arising.(Wh-questions...)They have to finish the two sheets by asking their partner many questions.Also, it trains them how to acquire information in their lives, and it reaches the main target of learning a foreign language-communication.V Conclusion TPR is an effective way to learn English for ESL, especially primary school students.It based that the first thing to learn a foreign language is comprehensible input, and then have a respond to do teachers‟ commands.And why this teaching pedagogy is so popular and succeful? Because it will bring a zero stre atmosphere to children to learn English, they will not be afraid of speaking English, and then they are likely to be cheerful when they are in English claes.Neverthele, the method also has some limitation in the proce of teaching.5.1 Major Findings TPR(Total physical response)is a language teaching strategy which uses commands, either written or verbal, to introduce new language and concepts to students.Imperative drills are a typical method is in TPR leon, a teacher will give a command and the student must follow the command with a physical response.For example, if the teacher says, “stand up and down three times” the students after hearing the command, they will raise their bodies from their chairs and down three times.Children will train listening skills and how to respond to directions given orally or visually through the Total Physical Response(TPR)method.It can also reach this end through teaching some songs, for instance, which is about human being‟s body 'Head, shoulders, knees and toes' children will learn the parts of the body.TPR strategy has a large number of activities may be used in English claes of primary school, which can make students pleasure and fun in claes, consequently they have an interest in learning English and to be a leader and center role in training English.5.2 Implications TPR is totally physical.According to many former studies, it is a right-brain approach.And the key point is Comprehensible Input.TPR is not a complete method.According to current theory, TPR works because it is an excellent way of providing students with comprehensible input;the teacher's movement provides the background knowledge that makes the command more comprehensible.ESL students acquire the second language as they acquire their native language, which are almost like infants study how to speak their mother tongue.TPR also can provide a low-anxiety environment to the students through lots of comprehensible input in.Students will produce language when they are ready.It is a direct method for teaching language with real-life situations.It gives instant feed-back to the teacher.TPR is an astoundingly succeful beginning language teaching method.TPR students have outperformed comparison students convincingly in method comparison studies, both in those done by Asher and his aociates as well as those done by other scholars(Wolfe & Jones, 1982).It has been shown to be effective for both children and adults, and has been used for a variety of languages.5.3 Limitations The TPR method applies to the nature of children and matches the principle of happy-learning, which enables children to learn easily, to learn fast and finally to feel the happine of English study.But its disadvantages are as follow:
1.This method just suits for the first period of language learning, especially beginners.Because most of its contents are gestures, through which children may not get further knowledge, and it has to be carried out with some other approaches.2.The TPR method contains of lots of game activities, role-playing and group competitions.But children will easily get excited when they are happy so it will be hard to accomplish the expected results even if they have good control of cla, , in another place, it becomes a annoy to some shy students.Students are not generally given the opportunity to expre their own thoughts in a creative way.The teacher may find that it is limited in terms of language scope.Certain target languages may not be suited to this method.5.4 Future Studies Many scholars determined that TPR can be used with a person of any age, TPR works with all levels of language learners.The author also has coincidence with them, if teachers combine TPR with other teaching pedagogies, such as interactive teaching methods, it will be more effective to make TPR work very well in a language claroom.Experienced teachers have the ability to cope when things go wrong.It„s useful when planning to build in some extra and alternative tasks and exercises.Also teachers need to be aware of what is happening in the claroom.Students may raise an interesting point and discuions could provide unexpected opportunities for language work and practice.In these cases, teachers should combine TPR with other teaching strategies to make TPR work very well in a language claroom.From studies such as these, the author concluded that the TPR method to teaching foreign languages is both beneficial and effective.Teachers can use both traditional method and TPR strategy in claes;they should try to have a good preparation and organize their claes, which is the most effective way.Giving them examples when instruct students to finish targets, which will not make the claes become noisy.Students can concentrate their attention while listening to English.BIBLIOGRAPH Danny, Braell,（2007）.Enhancing ESL Students’ Literacy Skills.DE Wolfe.（1982）.Integrating Total Physical Response Strategy in a Level I Spanish Cla, G JonesTPRS Publications Inc-ERIC EJ586008 Zink de Diaz, Laura.(2005).”TPR Foreign Language Instruction and Dyslexia".Retrieved on 2007-05-23.Ren Xiaoping.Listening Barriers Among Chinese Students And Training Tactics [J].延安教育学院学报，2001 Zhang Qi.Psychological analysis in listening teaching and radio programs teaching [J].云南教育学院学报，1996.10.p1 王蔷 A course in English language teaching [M].上海:高等教育出版社，2002.5.24
