Before we start I would like you to think of one or more learning techniques. (Leerstrategieën, hoe leer je)

The mind palace

As I previously asked you, you thought of some learning techniques you already know. But have you ever heard of the mind palace? This particular technique (also known as the Loci method) helps you to remember random words or numbers.

(Goed voor het stampen van woorden)

In de volgende dia is een filmpje, zorg ervoor dat je geluid aanstaat en kijk het fimpje helemaal af.

P.S. These wil also help with your english proficiency. :)

1. Play video games, but change all the language settings to English.

2. There are a lot of people that hate reading. If you're one of them, read something you like. For instance, you can look up your idol on  Wikipedia (in English) and read that!

3. Play a boardgame with your family. There are enough in the App/Play store if you don't have any physical.

4. Last but not least, you can bake (alone or with family).

Find an English baking recipe and of you go.

When you read the article, did you spot the mistakes?

(Tip, the mistakes are only in the first part.)

Now please, take a pen and a paper or something else you can write on. And rewrite the first part of the text without the spelling errors. 

When you're done you can go to the next slide.

Here you can write down your rewritten part of the article. You can check it yourself after you've finished.

What did the writer of this text aim for?

1. to inform you
2. to amuse you
3. to convince you (overhalen)
4. to persuade you (overtuigen)
