this activity gives students practice in understanding the target language in spoken conversation.
call students’ attention to the chart. set a time limit of two minutes. students read the persons, the things and the reasons.
say, you will hear a conversation. as you listen, draw lines to connect the person in the first column with the thing in the second column. then draw another line to connect the thing in the second line with the reason in the third column.
point out the sample answer. say, the name carla in the first column connects to volleyball in the second column because that’s the thing they are talking about. and the word volleyball in the second column connects with the sentence she loves volleyball in the third column.
play the recording the first time.
students only listen. play the recording again. this time students listen and match each person with a thing and a reason.
check the answers.
