This paper proposes an effective deductive method inteaching grammar based on sculptures of activities for learning and practicing specific grammar structures such as simple present, present continuous and simple past deductively. The homogenous adult males and females were randomly selectedas experimental and control groups. An English grammar test was designed from American English File Student Book 1, learning English text book by Clive Oxenden with Christina Latham-Koeing and Paul Seligson. Pre-, post-, and delay post- test were used for data collection. However, before using the test for the purpose of data collection, it was piloted on a small group of subjects to estimate its reliability. The purpose of the second delayed test was to see which method of instruction has more impact on the students' grammar retentions and can sustain their grammar learning for longer period of time. The results of the study confirmed the significance of the deductive instructional method of English grammar teaching and foremost it supported the use of sculptures of activities in learning English grammar and retentions among Iranian adult EFL learners.

Educational innovation in Musical Language Course: responses and the overcoming of limitations
This article presents an innovative methodological proposal for the development of auditory education in the course of the Language of Music. Based on this proposal, we analyze an educational community’s response to the innovations implemented, and we identify the limitations recognized throughout the learning and teaching process, as well as the strategies developed to overcome them. To this end, we applied a qualitative methodology with the classroom-based research method. The compilation of data was carried out through participant observation, captured in the journals of the professor and researcher, interviews and analysis of documents. The research results demonstrate that patience, responsibility and perseverance in their work on behalf of the professors have been key to overcoming the limitations identified and in promoting that students enjoy and learn their class contents in meaningful ways.
