Solution:

The main aim of teaching English/foreign language is to help children acquire practical English/foreign language commands. There are several methods of teaching English to students who are learning the language for the first time.The Grammar Translation Method, also known as the Classic Method was in vogue in the 16th century. It was used for teaching foreign languages, primarily Greek and Latin.Students learnt grammar rules to be able to translate texts of one language into another. The rules were learnt by rote and then practiced by doing grammar drills.This method was not based on any theory of language teaching, but its roots can be traced to the way classical languages such as Latin and Greek were taught.It was a way of learning a language through a detailed study of its grammar. The learner then applied the rules of grammar in translating sentences and parts of text from the mother tongue into the target language and vice versa.Hence, it is clear that drilling is the major technique of Grammar Translation Method.Additional InformationWhole language approach is a reading approach which emphasizes to integrate all language skills to make language learning easy for primary school children.The communicative approach is a method of language teaching which makes learners confident to communicate effectively by involving them in real communication.Play way method is based on psychological principles of development and growth because the growth and development of an individual can take place while learning through play.
