1.1 USO APROPIADO DEL LENGUAJE Y LAS FUNCIONES DE CLASE Contextualization is the meaningful use of language for real communicative purposes. It helps students understand how language users construct language in a given context. Language learning in context in the classroom can be expressed in such ways as: Working with real or simulated situations. Paying attention to the physical setting of exchange. Knowing the purpose of the exchange. Using language that accounts for the roles of the participants. Using socially acceptable norms of interaction. Paying attention to medium, tone, genre, and register.

Teachers can contextualize language instruction by organizing the content of the language curriculum according to themes or topics. These themes or topics work best when they are threaded throughout the course of study.

Language is constructed through a blend of purpose, situation, and social needs. Classroom learning experiences that incorporate these dimensions are more likely to lead to better learning outcomes. A contextualized approach to instruction also supports the use of integrated skills, and pair and group work. It can foster a deeper level of use of the language, especially when the themes and topics are high-interest and motivate students.

HOW TEACHER’S AND SYLLABUS LANGUAGE SHOULD BE?
