flexible practices grow from solid core principles.. principles guide us to better serve our purpose.. if we're here to make language learning easier, we can define principles to help us design adaptive practices:

[edit] input, meaningfully

meaningful input simplifies and clarifies personalization + comprehensible input

[edit] define

"establish meaning" may conflict with "make it meaningful".. how about "define"?

• prep (introduce).. get ready to connect
• translate via action, image, gesture, theater, text, word association, sound association

[edit] connect

simpler than PQA, more versatile.. wider scope than "TPRS/storyasking", removes obvious name conflict..

• feelings
• respect
• integrity
• ask
• listen

[edit] confirm

clarifies "TPRS/literacy" to include multiple repeat paths

• gesture
• act
• draw
• read
• write
• circle
• center

same story, different way.. make sure to make sure
