During the pre-reading stage, I will preteach the vocabulary by telling a short story and the students will complete a picture matching exercise to check comprehension. The students will paircheck their answers.
During the while reading stage, the students will first complete a reading for gist exercise where they have to complete a picture matching exercise, the students will then be asked to walk around and check the answers from other students.
