About this ebook
There’s more to writing ELT reading and listening comprehension activities than meets the eye! This module, written by experienced author Caroline Krantz, deconstructs and demystifies the process of writing the full range of great comprehension activities that really work.
Tips, checklists and practical tasks with detailed keys will guide you through the decisions you need to take and the pitfalls you need to avoid. The module provides an invaluable bank of question stems and rubrics that you’ll come back to time and time again.
By the end of the module you’ll have everything you need to write your own watertight comprehension activities.
This module forms part of the ELT Teacher 2 Writer training course. The training modules are designed to help you write better ELT materials, either for publication, or simply to improve the quality of your self-produced classroom materials.
