2. Content of the experienced initiative       

2.1. Theoretical basis of the experienced initiative

+ Drilling structure

+ Producting the exercises and activities or games

         The requirements for those are designed to help students understand lesson easily and carry out  the skills to drill grammar exercises considerately and more thoughfully and then remember lessons more deeply.
