The master's thesis focuses on teaching grammar in English
language coursebooks for lower secondary schools and examines
how grammar is presented and practised in these coursebooks.
The thesis aims to compare three sets of coursebooks and
determine how they differ in grammar teach-ing and practice.
The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on the role of
grammar in English language teaching, basic approaches and
methods of teaching grammar, and ways in which grammar is
presented, taught, and practised. The practical part compares
the grammar syllabuses of selected English language
coursebooks. It compares the presentation and teaching of past
simple tense and the methods of grammar practice.
