LISTENING

Through English classes we did many actictivities of listening of Unit 7th and Unit 8th. In one of the activities the teacher put a recording with a list of words (they were things you need on a trip and things at home) that we have to listen and wrote down in our notebooks and then he shecked them. Another activities were on the blackboard where the teacher put a recording of conversations between two people and there were a serie of questions about the conversation that we have to answer. Once the teacher put a song of possessive pronouns and possessive adjectives and he gave us a paper with the letter of the song and there were some empty spaces were we have to out the words that were missing through the song that we were listening. Also all the classes are activities of listening cause the teacher and classmates speak in english so you always listen to them and you learn more of this language.

ADVISES FOR LISTENING:

when you are having a conversation with someone, you need to follow this listening skills...

1) Pay Attention: focus on the speaker. Look to the facial expressions and body language, they could communication many things in an easier way.

2) Practice Active Listening: when you don't understand or you just want to be sure that it is what you understood, ask the speaker to slow down or repeat what he/she is saying.

3) Listen to Key words: pay attention to the words that the speaker emphasizes.
