| Sumario: | Legends and myths serve as effective tools for English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners not only to reflect upon moral values and cultivate their cultural awareness, but also to gain insight into formulaic language (Lindstromberg & Boers, 2008). The recognition and use of formulaic sequences or chunks allow them to enhance their productive and receptive skills. However, these learners usually struggle to develop their formulaic competence, especially if their teachers rely on a word-focused vocabulary teaching approach heavily. This paper presents some useful guidelines for crafting lesson plans based on legends and myths, designed for explicitly teaching formulaic sequences to young learners. |
