ELT365 · Day 256 — TTT in a Plan

Idea

Test → Teach → Test plans diagnose what learners already know before committing teaching time. The first ‘test’ is a diagnostic task, not an assessment.

Example

Set a short writing task using conditionals. Note errors. Teach the specific gap. Set a similar task. Compare.

Try

Design a two-minute diagnostic task that would reveal whether your learners already control your planned target language.
