Welcome to Let's Teach English. This series offers free online training for English language educators worldwide. Voice of America and the University of Oregon are partners on this project. In this lesson, the teacher helps students develop their listening skills through a cooperative learning activity. Summary In this lesson, the teacher prepares students to listen to a recording and respond. She uses the learning strategy focus. By asking a question before playing the recording, she helps students to listen for a purpose. Then, she organizes a cooperative learning activity using cards that describe roles. The students work together to create and practice a conversation about food. The purpose of cooperative learning is for each student to play a different, but equally meaningful, role in achieving one overall goal. Giving students cooperative roles also helps ensure that everyone does an equal part in group work.
