Armida Scarpa is an English teacher. She believes that stories can be used from the very beginning. She uses a real text of Goldilocks with her class. 1 . They are in their second year at school. They are learning to read in Italian, and have English three times a week. She doesn’t expect the children to learn the difficult grammar. 2 . She only asks them to really learn the words. This method is to give children an experience of real English and allows the teacher to use almost any story. 3 and if the teacher uses it carefully, the children can understand it.
Children are used to living in a world where they do not understand a lot of things. 4 , but they can also notice all the other information around them. If we deprive (剥夺) children of every experience except those we want them to master, then we take away the chance for them to experience this natural growth.
