Before we analyze the lesson, let us peek in on another class being taught by the silent way.1 this class is at a high intermediate level. The students are sitting around a table on which the teacher has used rods to construct a floor plan of a typical house. He establishes the front and back of the house by having the students label the front and back doors. He points to each of four rooms and is able to elicit from the students: living room , dining room, kitchen, and bedroom. Then the teacher points to the walls of each room in turn.
