Two approaches for teaching vocabulary

Today we learned about two approaches for teaching vocabulary: the present and learn and the Learning through Input Approach. You can see a PowerPoint presentation of the approaches here. I would like to tell you about the strengths and weaknesses of each approach as well as the approach I would use as a Junior High School English teacher.

1. The present and learn
☆Strengths☆
・ The English class use this approach will go smoothly, because students can understand easily what their teacher tell them and play that is instructed by teacher immediately.
・ Students can practice correct pronunciation.

☆Weaknesses☆
・ The class use this approach may be one-way lesson. If so, students will receive the class passively.
・ Students can't improve their skill of thinking, because teacher tell them the meaning of new words before students think and find the answer.
・ Students will be easy to feel hesitation new words when they encounter unknown vacabulary for the first time.

2. the learning through input approach
☆Strengths☆
・ Students is easy to memorize new vocabulary, because the vocabulary is learned through their experience.
・ Students will be able to feel pleasure, because they can find the answer themselves.
・ They can act independently.(They can have own image about new vocabulary.)
・ They are easy to hold their concentration, because they keep guessing and understanding.

☆Weaknesses☆
・ If the class is too fast, some students will not be able to follow the class, because every students have different thinking speed.
・ The understanding gap arise between students who good at English and who is not so.

Lastly as a junior high school English teacher I want to make the most of the good points two approach have and I'd like to use a hybrid.
