Julia has been trying to help her students identify the parts of speech so that they can use this
knowledge to help them discern the meaning of sentences containing unfamiliar vocabulary. To make
things more interesting, she decided to find a resource outside of her in-class texts and settled on Lewis
Carroll’s famous “nonsense” poem Jabberwocky. To begin the lesson, she showed her students a picture of the Jabberwock and got them thinking about
monsters, swords and strange new lands. Once the students were suitably engaged in the topic of the lesson, she handed out the poem and
modeled the first two stanzas: ‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe. "Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!" She then explained the task: students were to read the entire poem and identify the parts of speech for
as many words as they could in 10 minutes.
Question 61 Flag for review
Why might Julia's lesson have failed? a.
Second-language students can only read words they have memorized previously. b.
It is impossible to identify parts of speech for unfamiliar words based only on context. c.
Instructions for complicated or novel tasks should always be given in the students' native language. d.
Her students did not understand that many of the words were meant to be gibberish. Question 62 Flag for review
How could this lesson be modified for greater success? a. By carefully explaining that some words are not real words, so the students are not expected to
understand what they mean. b.
By removing the poem altogether. It is simply too difficult a task for any ESL student to understand. c.
By first illustrating which part of speech she thinks each word is meant to be; then students can choose
to agree or disagree with her assessment. d.
By choosing a different gibberish poem where the words are not as strange-looking so it is less
intimidating. Question 63 Flag for review
What are some alternative activities that could teach the same lesson objective? a.
Julia could select or create a story, leaving blanks in place of words in certain spots. Then the students
must choose which part of speech best fits in each blank. b.
Rather than focusing on parts of speech, she could have students guess at the meaning of each word,
then create their own story. c. Rather than attempting to teach her students to identify various parts of speech through context, she
should focus on proper nouns. Since these words are capitalized wherever they appear in a sentence,
her students should have less difficulty identifying them even if the words are unfamiliar. d.
She could retain the poem, but have students create a set of grammar rules for tenses. Then they could
apply those rules to change the gibberish poem to a different tense. Question 64 Flag for review
Which parts of speech would an activity such as this be most useful for identifying? a.
prepositions, articles, particles, and pronouns b.
nouns, verbs, and articles c.
pronouns, adjectives, conjunctions, and verbs d.
adjectives, adverbs, nouns, and verbs Question 65 Flag for review
How might a (successful) lesson in this format help students to learn? a. Students can learn correct sentence structure and punctuation by seeing the words in writing. b.
It builds vocabulary. Nonsense words still follow common English rules governing word construction, and
students can make use of these new words in games and other activities. c.
It helps students to better discern the meaning of unfamiliar words and sentences by identifying parts of
speech. d.
All of the above.
