IMPROVING STUDENTS' SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION THROUGH INSTRUCTIONAL SCAFFOLDING

Journal Title: World Science - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 7

Abstract

With the implementation of trilingual education (N.Nazarbayev, 2015), facilitating English language acquisition has become critical in secondary education in Kazakhstan. Moreover, helping students improve their learning capacity is something each teacher wishes to achieve. Being a successful educator means always striving to look for ways to improve our students’ performances so they can be successful. This holds true especially with our support of second language learners. This paper explains the ways that instructional scaffolding has been implemented in teaching English to Kazakh students in one school in Taraz, Kazakhstan. The use of realia, or real objects in the classroom is an excellent way to help lower level learners. Using objects in class enables the students to produce images more clearly in their minds therefore grasping a concept more easily than not. Another scaffolding technique is modelling or gestures. Funny looking it may be, but it helps students with comprehension and keeps thing in perspective for them.
