T divides the class so that each S gets a paragraph to skim and sets time of 1-2 minutes and asks them to get the general idea of the paragraph and comment on it writing only one sentence. Then Ss share their sentences and try to get the overall idea of the text.

T gives Ss a matching exercise with new vocabulary from the text. Ss work in pairs to find a matching definition. T then asks Ss to scan the text to find out the new words from the text and asks them to read so that they can see how the words are used/understand the context
