allery"Language across the curriculum" holds that all teaching is in a sense:
ALanguage teaching
BRote-based teaching
CExam preparation
DMoral teaching
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Language teaching
1. Language is best acquired through different meaning-making contexts.
2. Hence all teaching is in a sense language teaching.
3. The perspective is of special relevance to primary education.
4. It also marks how central language is to abstract thought at the secondary stage.
**Why not the others:** Rote teaching, exam preparation and moral teaching are not what the perspective claims.
