it to listen to the word’s pronunciation. Have them follow the same procedure on their own to check all the words they circled. Learning to Learn 116 Go to page 116 in the Activity Book and ask volunteers to read the information provided in the Learning to Learn section. 2. Practice saying your questions using different techniques to improve pronunciation. Draw students’ attention to the Mouth Positions for Pronunciation diagram. Practice together with them the positions of the mouth, tongue, and teeth for each of the sounds. Then, give pairs some time to practice pronunciation of words in the questions they wrote by using some of the different techniques suggested in the Learning to Learn section. 3. Practice reading the questions. Check each other’s intonation. Ask students to go back to page 58, Activity 2, to recall the intonation pattern for questions. Then, give pairs some time to check their intonation when reading the questions they wrote. 4. Read the texts you brought to answer your questions. Create a glossary for them in the lines below. Read instructions aloud and tell students to follow the steps provided on page 57, Activity 5, to clarify the meaning of words and create their glossary. Monitor walking around to provide help if required and invite pairs to share their words with the class. Differentiated Instruction Activity 1: In case students cannot use an online dictionary, use the Mini Lesson Strategy to teach them how to read phonetic signs in a printed dictionary. Instruct them that in each entry they will find the phonetic signs that show the word’s pronunciation in brackets and in the first pages of the dictionary they will find a Key to Pronunciation so they can find out how each sign sounds. Activity 2: Use the Individualized Feedback Strategy with pairs that need extra support to pronounce the words correctly.

Development How would you ask a question in which you only need a “yes” or a “no” as an answer? Write on the board: How would you ask a question in which you only need a “yes” or a “no” as an answer? Invite students to reflect on how they usually ask these types of questions in their native language. 1. Read the questions you wrote on page 59, Activity 5.
