The sequence in which sounds, structures, and vocabulary are presented is important in teaching a second language efficiently. The guidelines given here for the teaching English pronunciation and grammar in the kindergarten are based on that premise. The guidelines are given in four sections: (1) general, for all direct language instruction; (2) how to teach the sounds of English, including suggestions for drills; (3) various structured activities for teaching the sentence patterns of English; and (4) language drills and games for the teaching of pronunciation difficulties specific to Vietnamese students.
