Evaluation Tool Photocopy the self-evaluation/peer evaluation format and give one to each of your students so they may use it to assess themselves and one of their classmates during the presentation of their comics. Explain to them that self-evaluation will help them increase their responsibility and autonomy and to reflect critically about their own performance. Peer evaluation will probably provide them with relevant feedback as it is generated by someone who “speaks the same language.” Read each of the aspects aloud to make sure everybody understands what each of them refers to. Assign one classmate to each of your students for the peer evaluation and explain that they should be extremely respectful with their comments.

Review The aim of this section is to have students perform communicative activities in teams or pairs so they can practice the skills they learned during the unit. It is a great opportunity to give individualized support to struggling students. Another useful strategy is to promote tutoring between pairs, so advanced students may help their classmates. In any case, monitor them closely while they work on these activities so they feel confident enough to attain the achievements by themselves.
