Instructional Ideas

  • Create a class list of questions using the question words, and have pairs of learners interview each other using some of the questions
  • Encourage your class to watch the presentation on their own for homework before your instruction the next day

Classroom Considerations

  • Slide transitions are animated, which keeps the presentation interesting but might be distracting for some learners

Pros

  • Slideshow is short, making it a great review session
  • Includes practice slides for pairs or small groups to work together

Cons

  • None
