deliver it to the students so that the teacher can get the expected answer. The components also mention about how to react to the students respond, so the
teacher will know how to behave when she does not get the expected answer, weather she has to rephrase the question, pausing for a while or prompting etc.
By applying those components to the classroom, it is expected that interactive situation in the classroom realize.
2.2.3 Giving Information
In teaching there are some aspects should be considered by the teacher. Like, the teacher plans activities designed to facilitate the learners acquisition and the use
of the target language. At the same time, as a language teacher, they also should use the target language in the classroom as the principal means for explaining the
lesson, giving instructions and directions, modeling target language patterns, and giving feedback on student performance. All of those aspects are realized through
teacher talk, so the management of teacher talk would be considered important since it will affect the students. As cited by Richards and Lockhart in Chaudron
1988, there are some strategies, which can be applied and considered in delivering the lesson. They are:
1 Speaking more slowly. When teachers speak to language
learners in the classroom, they often use a slower rate of speech than they would use in other situations.
2 Using pauses. These pauses give learners more time to process
what the teacher has said and hence facilitate their comprehension.
3 Changing pronunciation. Teachers may sometimes use a
clearer articulation or a more standard style of speech. 4
Modifying vocabulary. The used of common words. For example, the teacher might ask, What do you think this
picture shows? instead of What do you think this picture depicts?
5 Modifying grammar. Simplifying the grammatical the structure
of sentences in the classroom. For example, avoid to using complex tenses.
6 Modifying discourse. Teachers may repeat themselves or
answer their own questions in order to make them understood. By considering those aspects, the teacher is expected to be more aware
when explaining the lesson to the students. The teacher can explain clearly in front of the class and the students can understand the explanation of the lesson.
By having good explanation, it is also expected that the students will get much more language input which they could use to interact with the teacher.
