T projects pictures & discussion questions on board. T: This is Alice, and these are photos from her life. What life events do you see here? PAIR WORK-discussion WGFB-elicit ideas,

T: We will now listen to Maria. She is Alice's cousin. She will talk about Alice. Play ONLY ONCE. T: Listen and decide which photograph is number 1, number 2... I don't need any other information. ICQ; Do we need to find out other information? Is Alice talking or her cousin? (PAIR WORK) PEER CHECK -- SS get up and check the other table's work (if enough numbers.) WGFB, T writes numbers on whiteboard. PROBLEMS: SS will get the order wrong: Peer checking should correct that, but if not, have one volunteer explain why the pictures are in this order. Nobody gets them right: It's okay if you didn't get it right. We'll listen again more carefully now.

S are given handouts (1 each.) You will listen to find out this information now. You can take notes if you want to. RH side of the class: listen for the first 4 on the list. LH side of the class: listen for the last 4 on the list. ICQ; Gestures: Who is listening for these? 1 MIN--SS read through the list. listen only once PEER CHECK: NEW PAIRS: T counts 1, 2, 3... 11, 22, 33 pair up and peer check. WGFB
