Language learning is a process of habit formation. Sts should overlearn the sentence patterns of the TL. Positive reinforcement helps sts to develop correct habits. Speech is more important. Why in dialogs? Because the teacher wants to contextualize the language.
New vocabulary and structures are presented through dialogs. The dialogs are learned through imitation and repetition. Drills are conducted based upon the patterns presented in the dialog.
What was the target pattern? This is presented within a dialog. Sts successful responses are positively reinforced. What about the bad responses? Correct immediately.
Implicit grammar teaching. Explicit grammar rules are not given. Cultural information is contextualized in dialogs or presented by a teacher. Daily conversations are used in that method. Sts reading and writing work is based on the oral work they did earlier.
