Moreover, instructional strategies such as Socratic seminars, literary groups, coordinated group activities and projects, research techniques and presentations, inquiry-based activities, project-based learning, and a study of vocabulary, grammar, and language usage will also be used to promote an advanced level of thinking, speaking, reading, and writing.
