1.3.2.2. Real objects and presentational objects According to Allen (1983: 4), real objects are of great value to show the meaning of a new word, especially when the objects are available in the classroom. She reinforced that “in most cases, a picture of something is less helpful than the thing itself”. She also gives the general recommendation “for showing the meaning of an English noun, use the real object whenever possible” (p25). Representational objects are objects that can replace real objects in case teachers and learners cannot bring the real ones for use in classroom.
