1. Examine the textbook excerpt in Appendix A and describe two ways in which
you could adapt/supplement it.
Your text here:
Based on the given textbook excerpt in Appendix A, two ways you could adapt or supplement it are:
1. Interactive Pronunciation Practice: Instead of simply listening and marking the number of syllables, you
could incorporate interactive pronunciation practice. After listening to the pronunciation of each vocabulary
word, students could repeat the word aloud, focusing on correct pronunciation and syllable stress. This would
provide students with more hands-on practice in producing the words correctly, rather than just marking the
syllables.
2. Pair or Group Discussion: To further engage students and promote communication skills, you could
supplement the listening activity with a pair or group discussion. After listening to the person introducing
herself and describing her interests, students could work together to answer the questions. They could take
turns discussing their own schools, years in college, future career aspirations, and hobbies. This would
encourage students to actively use the language they are learning and engage in meaningful conversations
with their peers.
By incorporating interactive pronunciation practice and adding a discussion component, you can enhance the
learning experience and provide opportunities for students to actively practice their listening, speaking, and
communication skills.
2. Adapting an authentic text: Complete the task below and then answer the
reflection questions.
a. Follow the steps below to plan a lesson using an authentic informational text.

intermediate level, with varying degrees of proficiency in listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

may be addicted to their social media networks, it is one of the best ways to stay
informed. Major news outlets, corporations and persons of interest use social media to
