Activity 5. Dictation.
Listen to the following sentences and write them down. When you finish, send me an email with the sentences please. (yasminafawaz2@gmail.com). You can listen to the podcast as many times as you want!
If you have any doubt, write a comment please.
Good luck!
Hi Yasmina!
ResponderEliminarI like your blog, is full of interesting and challenging tasks for children! You have done a good and hard work including different and varied activities.
I can see you are trying to encourage children to practise their writing and listening skills which are both very important abilities in the acquisition of a second language. Your voice sounds very clear in this activity and I´m sure children will understand you perfectly, but I would like to suggest you make a longer pause after each sentence in order to give them time enough to write while they are listening to you. In this manner, they will not have to interrupt their writing. Another suggestion is that you can share a document with your students, (the same you have done in other activities), through google docs or dropbox in which they can write their answers, so that you don´t have to give them your personal email address.
I would like to congratulate you for your work!!
Take care and "see you in class"

Hi Arancha!
EliminarThank you for your comment! You're right with the dictation pauses, but I thought that it wouldn't be necessary as they can pause it and listen to it as many times as they want and the email address I gave them is the one I use for professional purposes, but thank you very much for your suggestions! I'll take them into account!
All my best,
Yasmin
