(4) 1.2 Discuss how you as a teacher would implement code-switching as a pedagogical approach to promote effective communication and learning among your learners. Provide TWO (2) examples of activities or strategies that encourage code-switching. (4) 1.3 Explain how you would recognise and support a bilingual learner who regularly switches between Afrikaans, Isizulu, Sesotho, Tsonga and English during class discussions and activities? Provide ONE (1) specific strategy to facilitate their language development and learning. (6) 1.4 Choose and explain a teaching/learning approach that would enhance learners’ understanding of the subject matter that incorporates the codeswitching strategy and encourage active participation among learners.
