In the home babies listen to language for around a year before
they begin to attempt responding in sensible syllables and words
(speaking). Babies are allowed to try, to make mistakes and to try
again without blame. This same safe environment should exist in

TPR Object
TPR-O stands for "TPR with objects. This is best done sitting at
a table that has some objects on it. For example, one day the
teacher could bring produce from the market. That day the
students could not only learn the words for "apple," "banana,"
"orange," and so on, but also, "give me," "take," "put," "smell,"
"bite," "roll," "peel," and "show me." For this activity, the teacher
could start off with: "This is an apple. This is an orange. This is
an apple. This is an orange. Where is the apple? (The students
point.) Where is the orange?" Once again new words can be
fairly quickly built up one at a time. (Remember, only add two or
three new items a day. Once the new words are learned they can
be combined with forms learned previously, building on the
language. For example, phrases previously learned such as put on
top of, put underneath can be used when learning the above
names of fruit. The following day add the other verbs such as
give me, take, smell etc. 2 or 3 a day only.)
When doing TPR-O, always remember to learn verbs that are
associated with the objects they are learning. For example, if the
students are learning about a radio, they can learn the parts of the
instrument as well as words associated with its use, such as turn
it on, turn it off, turn up the volume, turn down the volume,
change the station, open up the battery case, take out the
batteries, and so on.
3.2.4
At some point students will feel the urge to start speaking. Don't
push it, but at some point they can begin saying things for the
teacher or their peers to do, from "stand up" to "turn the volume
down" to "show me the man who ate fish yesterday." They can
also speak about a table of objects: "This is a ball. This is a key.
This is a book. The pen is on the book." And finally, they can
describe pictures in any tense: "The man ate fish. The boy read a
book."
Things to Remember when Teaching with TPR
The most common mistake that teachers who are new to TPR
make is to introduce new words too quickly or to introduce them
two or more at a time. Students will feel overwhelmed if they
dont receive enough repetition. The teacher should learn to
continually monitor and evaluate the students progress and make
minor adjustments as needed. The secret of TPR is to make it a
regular, ongoing part of the language study program, with great
emphasis at the beginning but continued use throughout the
school years.
