| dc.description.abstract | In this study, an attempt has been made to find out whether or not the use of literary texts in teaching grammar is effective. Two sections from grade seven were selected randomly and assigned as experimental group and control group. The experimental group was taught specific grammar point through literary texts (short stories and poems) where as the control group was taught the same structure through the textbook. At the end, a test was administered to observe the outcome of the experiment. The results obtained by the experimental group were better than that of the control group. The responses of the students in the questionnaire and observation also indicated that literary texts play a pivotal role in teaching grammar. On the basis of the findings, it was concluded that the teaching of grammar can be supported effectively by using well - chosen literary texts. And the recommendation given is that literary texts should be integrated into the present syllabus. | en_US |
