SPEAKING PRACTICE

Describe one of your typical days. You should say:

- How do you start your day (what is your routine)

- How long have you had your routine

- You're favorite activity of the day

FURTHER STUDY

For the next class, have the students record a two to three minute video or audio in which they
talk about their daily routine. Alternately, have the students record a video or audio in which
they talk about popular daily activities (such as yoga) in their country - even if the story is very
simple, or short. It is important that the students practice outside of class, and it is useful for
the teacher to review the video or audio in class so that the teacher can comment on mistakes
and suggest ways to improve speech.
