TOTAL PHYSICAL RESPONSE- STORYTELLING Salah Satu Pendekatan Komunikatif pada Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris Bagi Anak Usia Dini
Everyone might agree with the statement ‘learning is an activity that starts at birth and can be expected to continue for a lifetime’. In learning, children are not a miniature of adult, they have their own world, means that they do not learn things exactly the same way adults do. More specifically, children have their own culture and learning preferences. That is, children learn by way of physical activities (i.e., hands on experiences) in the context of doing things embedded in their daily lives, both individually and socially. Total Physical Response-Storytelling (TPR-S) provides other benefits over traditional approaches to foreign language teaching. Through consistent and comprehensible exposure to grammatically-correct language, students develop an "ear" for language. By allowing students to proceed with natural language acquisition, fluency is promoted. This article describes some theories of how children learn foreign language and how TPR-S can be used as one of effective technique in teaching foreign language to children. Key words: Children, Total Physical Response-Storytelling technique, language learning

train students to have an ability to interpret the meaning of a text functionally
in context, an ability to comprehend the social function of discourses, and
an ability to interact with others in their society in a proper behavior. Teachers should expose their students to use their critical literacy capacity in the
real life situation. This study will examine the development of Indonesian
high school students’ critical literacy skill based on teachers’ instructional
practice report. Critical literacy skills in this study are coding practices,
text-meaning practices, pragmatic practices, and critical practices (Luke,
2000). Self-evaluation questionnaire using Likert scale 1 to 5 responses
will be distributed to 30 English teachers. The interpretation of mean score
will be categorized into five levels; very low, low, medium, high and very
high. The findings will be used as preliminary data to find an effective
instructional model to improve student critical literacy skills in multicultural
and multilingual situation

Nevertheless, there are no real differences in processing the phonological and semantic tasks according to gender among educated Arab students residing in a foreign country
