TP - 8, Receptive Skill: Listening in the context of travel
Elementary level

Description

In this lesson, the learners will practice their listening skills. First, they will listen to an audio (listening for gist) about a friend asking another friend about his past trip. Then, they will complete a gist task to illustrate their understanding of the gist of the heard discussion. The learners will then listen again to the same audio (listening for details). This second listening will be followed by the learners completing a detailed listening (T/F) task to illustrate their understanding of the details of the heard discussion.
