Finally, T gets FB from students and checks their understanding (e.g. 100 p = 1 pound and 100 cents = 1 dollar). T drills for pronunciation.

Pre- Listening (3-5 minutes) • To provide sts with the written form of currency signs and get them say the names along with numbers in order to make them ready for the listening activity

T gives clear instructions on ex.2, by showing the sts the slips on which the activity is printed. T pairs the students in groups of two.
