• Students rely on the pictures to deduce the meaning of the phrases. Teacher might ask Ss to use these words in their own sentences.

• Low-performing students might need teacher’s support to clarify some unknown words. High-performing students might be ask to summarize in a nutshell using new words and phrases.

• Monitor learners to check they can pick up specific details when listening to facts of their classmates

• Observe learners when participating in discussion. Did the group dynamics work? Did each learner contribute to the discussion? If not, why not? (e.g. didn’t understand what to do; not so confident speaking English; not interested in topic; other)

• Record what they considered they had learned from the lesson. Could they express what they had learned about content and language? Could they express which skills they had developed?
