,Dear Student
1 INTRODUCTION
As part of this tutorial l e t t e r , we wish t o i n f o r m y o u that U n i s a h a s
i m p l e m e n t e d a transformation charter based on five pillars and eight dimensions. In
response to this charter, we have also placed curriculum transformation high on the
agenda. For your information, curriculum transformation includes the following pillars:
student-centred scholarship, the pedagogical renewal of teaching and assessment
practices, the scholarship of teaching and learning, and the infusion of African
epistemologies and philosophies. These pillars and their principles will be integrated at
both the programme and module levels, as a phased-in approach. You will notice the
implementation thereof in your modules, and we encourage you to fully embrace these
changes during your studies at Unisa.
As this module is offered online, you will need to use myUnisa to study and complete the
learning activities for this module. Visit the website for [FLT3701] on myUnisa
frequently.
1.1 Assignments
As mentioned in the 101/0/2022 ALL assignments will be placed in Tutorial letter
102/0/2022.
ASSIGNMENT 01
Multi-choice questions
Assignment 01 comprises multiple-choice questions (MCQs). These questions are designed
to help you work through the entire study guide. You will find most of the answers in your
study guide, and it is possible to obtain full marks. Some questions require application, and
in these instances the answers may not be found in the study guide. MCQs make an
important contribution to the teaching and learning experience of students in that they are a
way of assessing both simple knowledge and complex concepts, as well as both detailed
and specific information related to the module. Another benefit is that these questions can
be answered quickly and can assess your mastery of many topics in a short time. However,
MCQs are not about guessing!

, ASSIGNMENT 01 – MCQs
1. Select the correct option that relates to the following statement:
When teaching a first additional language (FAL) in the Foundation Phase, it
is important that teachers keep the following guidelines in mind:
1. The FAL content and context should show progression in each grade.
2. FAL teaching is also influenced by the learner’s home language and “additive
bilingualism”.
3. The FAL should be taught using an interactive teaching approach.
4. All of the above.
2. Read the following scenario and then choose the correct option.
A Grade 2 teacher allows learners to first communicate ideas that are
important to them, such as their personal experiences, thereby allowing
other learners to understand what they are saying, which is not necessarily
based on the structure of that particular language. Which approach is the
teacher following to teach a language?
1. The total physical response approach
2. The grammar translation approach
3. The communicative approach
4. The task-based language teaching approach
3. Identify the method below that is based on the idea that the home
language and FAL have separate linguistic systems; whereby the teacher
only teaches the FAL in the classroom, using actions and pictures to give
meaning. Learners thereafter repeat dialogues, rhymes and short songs,
which they hear from the teacher.
1. The audio - lingual method
2. The communicative language approach
3. Total physical response approach
4. The grammar translation method
