Description

Dictations for Discussion is an intermediate-to-advanced-level text intended to improve the listening and speaking skills of ESL students.

Reading and writing are also reinforced, along with progress in vocabulary and grammar.

This text provides a wide variety of dictations, from authentic materials that include provocative news items, problems to solve, and decisions to make.

The units are designed to stand alone so that teachers can pick and choose which dictations meet the needs, interests, and levels of their students.

Each unit begins with a short introduction that provides a background and context for the dictation.

The central focus of the unit is a dictation activity followed by a discussion section.

The discussions can take place in pairs or small groups.

The unit ends with a follow-up activity which is intended to explore the topic further through writing, research, and speaking activities.

This text includes several cooperative learning activities. The strategy in this book is similar to Basic Dictations, also by De Filippo and Sadow, although this book is for more advanced students.

It also has five types of dictations rather than the four found in the Basic Dictations book.p> The five types of dictations are: - Partial/Cloze Dictations - Pair Dictations - Dictogloss Dictations - Prediction Dictations - Note Taking Dictations An (optional) audio program is available for download.
