Tag: progressive tense

This is an example of my most heavily used activity. The details will differ slightly, but essentially, I want the students to

1. Ask a question
2. Listen to the answer
3. Remember the answer and share that answer with their group
4. Understand the answer as a group
5. Write out a sentence using the information they learned from the answer
6. Relay that information to a 3^rd party.

This lesson is marked for the end of JHS first year, so students by this point should be comfortable enough talking to you 1-on-1, and if they’re not then this is the practice they may need. I don’t always make the students ask questions and listen to answers individually, but when the pattern is so cut and dry like this with zero variables for the question I believe it is more than fair to expect them to be able to solo the Q&A.

But you can alter the methods and worksheets as you see fit.
