What did we do?

1. We organized two teams to play the dictation race

2. We held a competition to see which team was the fastest to dictate a whispered text from one corner to the other of the room.

3. Both teams had a reader, who saw the text, and a writer, who had to copy it on a paper sheet, and, of course, six or seven speakers, who had to send the message from one to another as clearly as possible.

4. Once the text had been written, the whole team gathered around the paper and corrected what ever mistakes they found and agreed on a definite version of the text.

5. The winner was the fastest and the most accurate text.

6. We all had the text dictated on our notebooks

7. all the time left, students had to work on their exercise book.

What did we do?

1. Read and listen the text on your students’ book (unit 1)

2. Check vocabulary problems

3. Read the text in pairs

4. Dictation

What will we do?

1. Think of interesting and original questions to ask to other pupils in the class and write a short questionnaire.

2. Stand up and talk to your peers, they will ask you questions and you will also get their information.

3. Talk about one of the students you have spoken to and let the rest of the class guess who s/he is.
