TEACH high frequency, COVER the rest.

I love this quote from Blaine Ray - "TEACH high frequency, COVER the rest."  It is such a great piece of advice.  I've been stressing over all the vocabulary that I need to "teach" this semester as it seems like third year Spanish has waaaaay more grammar than is viable.  But as long as I stick to teaching the high frequency stuff, I can "cover" the rest through being random vocabulary in stories and on their vocabulary lists.  *sigh* It was just the piece of advice I was looking for today.  Sometimes I just need someone to remind me what TPRS is all about.
