Dictation has always been a useful activity, but dictations too often

dictation back with a twist:

▣ Partial Dictation. Listen and fill in the blanks
▣ Paired Dictation. The students dictate passages to each other
▣ Dictogloss. Listen and recreate the passage
▣ Prediction.
To make the dictations fresh and challenging topics for discussion, the
authors have selected them from a variety of authentic sources -
the web, magazines, and newspapers.
Some are controversial, hot topics. Some are widely appealing human-
interest stories with important cultural issues embedded in them. Some
are delightfully funny. Each has been used and tested by the authors
and fellow teachers. Your students will find themselves naturally drawn
into a serious but lively discussion of each article.
There are six different topical areas to choose from:
▣ Cultural Trends
▣ Money and Work
▣ Holidays / Special Events
▣ Ethics
▣ Health
▣ Language Facts and Fun
