CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Without an accurate knowledge of their target language, students will never be able to be understood. However, it’s a good rule of thumb that accuracy activities come before fluency activities. This is common sense – there’s no point in building fluency with incorrect forms or incorrect words.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fluency is the flow and efficiency with which you express your ideas, particularly when speaking. A few grammar mistakes may appear here and there in the explanation, but it should be delivered in a way that is easy to understand and shows how comfortable you are with the language.

Detailed explanation-3: -If you choose to focus on fluency, don’t stop your students if they make mistakes but if you are aiming for accuracy then make sure your students are producing accurate language. In a nutshell, both accuracy and fluency are important in the classroom and one should not be sacrificed for the other.
