Summary

This activity is designed to improve sentence accuracy and complexity. Most students can produce the key content words in a sentence. However, they have difficulty with accuracy because the functional words are difficult or can seem unimportant. This activity will help learners eliminate problems with these functional words by giving them immediate feedback on the mistakes they are making. It will also help students develop their use of more natural, varied and complex sentence structures.

TIP: Say the sentence out loud. Notice the types of mistake you make often. Focus on those types of errors. (singular/plural, subject-verb agreement, article use, prepositions, gerunds and infinitives, noun clauses, adjective clauses, word order, and word forms.)

También ayudará a los estudiantes a desarrollar su uso de estructuras de oraciones más naturales, variadas y complejas.

CONSEJO: Diga la oración en voz alta. Observe los tipos de errores que comete con frecuencia. Concéntrese en ese tipo de errores.

triangle Listen & Repeat 듣고 따라하기 Ouça e repita Escuchar y repetir [ ? ]

Listen & Repeat


This activity has two purposes.

The first purpose is to improve listening accuracy. Learners can often understand the general meaning of a video but still not hear and understand many of the words that are said. This is because native speakers tend to say the functional words unclearly. (eg. don’t know, going to, want to, can’t, must have) This activity is designed to help learners improve their ability to hear these words.

TIP: Learners should listen, and then try to repeat exactly what they hear. Then they should click “Show” and read the sentence. After reading the sentence, learners should listen again and try to hear each word.

The second purpose is to improve pronunciation.

TIP: Learners should listen to and read the sentences at the same time. Then learners should try to copy the pronunciation and intonation of the speaker exactly.

TIP: Exaggerating the intonation and feeling of the speaker is useful. It may feel awkward or funny, but it will help you sound more natural.

Escuchar y Repetir

Esta actividad tiene dos propósitos separados.

El primer propósito es mejorar la precisión auditiva. Los estudiantes a menudo pueden comprender el significado general de un video, pero aún no escuchan ni comprenden muchas de las palabras que se dicen. En particular, los hablantes nativos tienden a decir las palabras funcionales (p. Ej., No sé, voy a, quiero, no puedo, debe haberlo hecho) de manera poco clara. Esta actividad está diseñada para ayudar a los alumnos a mejorar su capacidad para escuchar estas palabras.

CONSEJO: Los alumnos deben escuchar y luego intentar repetir exactamente lo que se dijo. Luego deben hacer clic en "Show" y leer la oración. Después de leer la oración, los alumnos deben volver a escuchar e intentar escuchar cada palabra.

El segundo propósito es mejorar la pronunciación.

CONSEJO: Los alumnos deben escuchar y leer las oraciones al mismo tiempo. Luego, los alumnos deben intentar copiar la pronunciación y la entonación del hablante.

CONSEJO: Es útil exagerar la entonación y el sentimiento del hablante. Puede parecer incómodo o divertido, pero te ayudará a sonar más natural.

듣고 따라하기

이 액티비티에는 두 가지 목적이 있습니다.

첫 번째 목적은 청취 정확도를 높이는 것입니다. 학생들은 종종 비디오의 일반적인 의미를 이해할 수 있지만 여전히 많은 단어를 듣고 이해하지 못합니다. 특히 원어민은 기능적 단어 (예 : 모르겠다, 갈 것, 갖고 싶어, 가질 수 없어야 한다)를 불분명하게 말하는 경향이 있습니다. 이 액티비티는 학습자가 이러한 단어를 듣는 능력을 향상시킬 수 있도록 고안되었습니다.

팁 : 학습자는 듣고 나서 말한 내용을 정확하게 반복해야 합니다. 그들은“Show”를 클릭하고 문장을 읽어야 합니다. 문장을 읽은 후 학습자는 다시 듣고 각 단어를 들어야 합니다.

두 번째 목적은 발음을 향상시키는 것입니다.

팁 : 학습자는 동시에 문장을 듣고 읽어야 합니다. 그런 다음 학습자는 화자의 발음과 억양을 따라 해 보아야 합니다.

팁 : 화자의 억양과 느낌을 과장하는 것이 유용합니다. 어색하거나 재미있게 느껴질 수 있지만 더 자연스럽게 들리는 데 도움이 됩니다.

Ouvir e repetir


Esta atividade tem dois propósitos.

O primeiro objetivo é melhorar a precisão auditiva. Os alunos geralmente podem entender o significado geral de um vídeo, mas ainda não ouvem e entendem muitas das palavras que são ditas. Isso ocorre porque os falantes nativos tendem a dizer as palavras funcionais de forma pouco clara. (por exemplo, não sei, vou, quero, não posso, devo ter) Esta atividade é projetada para ajudar os alunos a melhorar sua capacidade de ouvir essas palavras.

DICA: os alunos devem ouvir e tentar repetir exatamente o que ouviram. Em seguida, deveriam clicar em “Mostrar” e ler a frase. Depois de ler a frase, os alunos devem ouvir novamente e tentar ouvir cada palavra.

O segundo objetivo é melhorar a pronúncia.

DICA: os alunos devem ouvir e ler as frases ao mesmo tempo. Em seguida, os alunos devem tentar copiar exatamente a pronúncia e a entonação do falante.

DICA: É útil exagerar na entonação e no sentimento do falante. Pode parecer estranho ou engraçado, mas ajudará você a soar mais natural.

Emily: Hi. Hello. Uh, bonjour. I'm Emily Cooper from the Gilbert Group in Chicago.

Julien: You are? I'm sorry. I don't understand.

Emily: Oh. I'm going to be working in this office. [Je vais travailler dans ce bureau.]

Julien: [The American girl is here.]

Sylvie: Bonjour. [I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow.]

Emily: You lost me at bonjour.

Sylvie: Oh. Yeah, I was told the American coming here spoke French.

Emily: Oh, that was Madeline.

Sylvie: Oh, so you're not Madeline.

Emily: Uh, I'm Emily. Emily Cooper. And I am so excited to be here.

Sylvie: Well, that's very unfortunate.

Emily: Excuse me?

Sylvie: That you don't speak French. It's a problem.

Emily: Well, I'm going to take a class, but je parle un peu français already.

Sylvie: Well, perhaps it's better not to try.

Sylvie: Oh, Paul. May I introduce Emily, the American girl who's come to work with us? This is Monsieur Brossard, he's the founder of Savoir.

Emily: Ah. Emily Cooper. Oh.

Emily: It is so nice to meet you, Monsieur Brossard.

Paul: It's a pleasure. Welcome to Paris. So, you've come to teach the French some American tricks?

Emily: I'm sure we have a lot to learn from each other.

Paul: But your experience is not with fashion and luxury brands, hm?

Emily: True. Most of my experience has been in promoting pharmaceuticals and geriatric care facilities.

Paul: In Chicago.

Emily: Yes.

Paul: I was in Chicago once, and I ate the deep-dish pizza.

Emily: That is our specialty. We take a lot of pride.

Paul: It was, uh, dégueulasse. How you say?

Sylvie: Disgusting.

Paul: Like a quiche made of cement.

Emily: Oh, no, you must have gone to Lou Malnati's.

Paul: And the people are so fat. Why are they all so fat?

Sylvie: Well, perhaps from the disgusting food.

Emily: True, we are in the midst of an obesity epidemic. In fact, Merck was one of our biggest clients. They make a diabetes drug that we marketed the heck out of. Sales went up 63 percent.

Paul: So you create the disease, then you treat the disease, and then you market the treatments of the disease.

Emily: Well...

Sylvie: Perhaps stop eating.

Paul: There is no money in that.

Sylvie: True.

Emily: Cigarettes cause diabetes and cancer.

Paul: Yes. Well, smoking is a pleasure. And without pleasure, who are we?

Sylvie: German?

Paul: Exactly right.

Paul: All of the brands we market here, from perfume to cognac to couture, are all to do with beauty and refinement.

Emily: Mm-hmm.

Paul: Perhaps you have something to learn from us, but I'm not sure if we have much to learn from you.

Emily: With all due respect, I have been sent here for a reason, so if you wouldn't mind, I would really like to share some of my ideas about your social media strategies.

Paul: Ah, by all means.
