Speaking, Listening and Pronunciation Projects for ELLs - Intermediate Level
Unrestricted Use
CC BY
Rating
0.0 stars

This textbook was designed to support an English Language Learner pronunciation class; however, it could be used in any intermediate-level speaking and listening class. As you can see outlined in the table below, each unit of this book is centered around a model or mentor text and a corresponding project. There are at least two possible ways you can use these materials.

Option 1: Follow the book in order, starting with the mentor text, progressing through pronunciation features and finishing each unit with the final project.
Option 2: Start with the mentor text, then move directly to introduce the end of module project. Students can submit the final project and then the teacher could assign specific pronunciation feature tasks in order to support students who struggle in specific areas (for a "just-in-time" approach).
