1.

What preparation (i.e. pre-listening activity) did the teacher give

the learners before they listened to the text?
- she asked them some questions about the cover page.

If they had some preparation, select (a) if they did not, select (b).

a. How did the pre-listening activity help students understand?
- it helped them to know what they will be reading about.

b. What pre-listening activity could the teacher have used to

help students understand the target language better?


2. Were the learners engaged in while-listening activity/activities? If they
were, select (a); if they were not, select (b).

a. What were the aims of the while-listening activity/activities?
- the aim was to get the students excited and engaged in the story
time.

b. What while-listening activity/activities could the teacher
have used to help learners understand better what they
were listening to?


3. Did the learners have a post-listening activity/activities? If they
did, select (a); if they did not, select (b).

a. What were the aims of the post-listening activity/activities?
- the aim was to know who understood the story and who didn’t.

b. What post-listening activity/ activities might have helped the
learners to understand what they had heard better?


4. How many times did the learners listen to the text / recording? Twice.

a. Would it have increased their understanding if they had been
allowed to listen to the recording again? Explain.

-Yes, because if the students didn’t understand what happened

in a certain part they will mostly understand in the second time.




b. Did the learners hear the whole text at once, or in parts?
If so, which was the most helpful?

- First it was in parts then they heard it all at once. I think that
when it is in parts it is better for the students because sometimes
the story will be very long and the students will get bored.






Think about the advantages and disadvantages of using the model of pre-,

- It might take a long time from the lesson.
- It takes longer time to prepare.

Advantages from the student perspective:
- It will help them understand quicker.
- They will have more fun.

Disadvantages from the student perspective:
- they might get bored.
- they might misbehave.
