| Abstraksi Narasi | : | There has been an idea commonly agreed by teachers and practitioners of English in general that young learners should not be taught grammar. This idea is based on some myths that for young learners grammar is too difficult, not relevant, and also theoretical, something that neglects meaning in learning a foreign language. On the other side, it is also known that grammar is a component that plays an important role in the process of learning a language. It is something that makes language flow smoothly in a good order. This paper aims at opening the insight about teaching grammar to young learners especially describing two major points, why it is important to teach grammar to young learners and how it should be introduced to them. These two points are essential because as the effect of misinterpretations of the communicative approach, many teachers of English at secondary schools in Indonesia seemed `afraid` of teaching grammar intensively, let alone to young learners. Second, the technique of teaching young learners a foreign language, including its grammar, is different from that to adults. By knowing both teachers of English for young learners are expected not to hesitate to deal with grammar in helping the pupils to learn the language maximally. |
