Good morning V5! 

Slide 1 - Tekstslide

Lesson goals
  • I can filter out important info from an informative talk about linguistic diversity.   

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

Slide 3 - Tekstslide

Three aspects listening/watching
  • ‘gist’ (de essentie van het fragment) 
  • specific information 
  • important details 

  • Try to discover which one applies to the questions when you are making a listening/watching test. What do they want from me?

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Kijk/luisteren VWO Engels
  • globaal luisteren of kijken: hier mag je de vragen nog niet lezen. Je kijk/luistert naar het fragment, maakt aantekeningen en dan beantwoord je de vragen. 
  • voorspellend luisteren: hier moet je het juiste woord invullen op de plaats van de pieptoon. 
  • selectief luisteren : hier mag je de vragen al wel lezen, dan luister je naar het fragment en vervolgens beantwoord je de vragen 

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

listening/watching tips
  • underline the important words in the answers that indicate what the answer is really about. 
  • If you doubt between two answers: ask yourself which answer was mostly present in the fragment? What is it really about and which aspects were less relevant. 
  • look for synonyms. Sometimes a synonym of a word in the answers is used in the fragment

How to practice? 
  • Practice listening at B2/C1 level in Holmwoods
