Instructions
• Give short instructions and model the activity for the
students.
• Check your instructions, but avoid asking, Do you
understand? Instead ask concept questions such as,
Are you going to speak or write when you do this
activity?

Monitoring
• Make sure you go around the room and check that
the students are doing the activity and offer help as
necessary.
• Monitor closely during controlled practice, but don ' t
make yourse lf too accessible during fluency activities;
otherwise, students may rely on you to answer
questions rather than focus on communicating their
ideas to their partner or group.

1. Breathe
Take a deep breath. Breathe slowly and deeply every time you begin to feel stress. Make this a
habit, and you can often stop a little stress from becoming a lot of stress.
2. Get Organized
Make a "to do" list, and decide what you need to do right away and what can easily wait.
Clean up your study or work space. Do the same with your computer desktop.
3. Move!
Go for a swim. Run. Ride your bicycle. Do aerobics. Hike up a mountain. It doesn't really
matter what you do.Just do something that you enjoy.
4. Communicate
Have a problem? Don't keep it inside. Talk to a friend, a family member, or even your cat.
Don't want to talk? Write it down in a stress journal.

Reality ShOWS - you either love them or you hate them! But did you
realize there are different types of reality shows? Read on and find out more ....

WIn this type of reality show, contestants try to win a prize . The prize is often
money or, in some cases, a job . Each week, one person leaves the show until
there is only one - the winner. Sometimes the contestants vote on who stays or
goes, sometimes the TV viewers at home vote, and other times the show 's judges
choose . One example is Top Chef. In th is show, contestants cook dishes for the
host and the three judges. The winner usually receives money, a trip , and an
article in a food magazine.

WThis type of reality show looks like a soap opera , but it is about one or more
real people and their daily lives. Some of these shows are about people on the
job , su ch as pol ice officers, fi refighters, or hospital workers . Others are about
regular people in unusual situations, and some even follow famous people . One
example of this type was The Osbournes. This show was about the daily life of
British singer Ozzy Osbourne and his family. In these types of shows, there is no
prize money and no winner.

[ill Th ese shows are about a person or people who need a change . Other people
help this person in one area , such as home, style , health , or relationships. An
exam pie of th is is What Not to Wear. On th is show, two hosts give fashion advice
to someone who needs a new " look." The hosts go to the person 's closet and
throw away clothes that they don 't like. The person then receives money and a
trip to New York City to shop for new clothes.

With more than 15,000 shops and 200,000 visitors every Saturday and Sunday, Bangkok's
Chatuchak Weekend Market is a popular place with visitors to Thailand . You can find plants,
flowers, music, jewelry, clothes, food , and even animals! · _. ,

~ The market is a great place to find bargains, and prices are generally low. Most people
bargain, but some don 't, so don 't worry if you don 't want to bargain . Just go with a friendly
smile and have enough cash in your pocket. There are ATMs for cash , but they are difficult to
find, and many vendors don't take credit card s. The market is huge, and many people walk in ~
circles, even with a map . Don 't try to see it all in one day! ·

i! The market is open from 8 :00 to 6 :00 Saturday and Sunday. It's good to get there early,
before it gets too busy. Wear light, comfortable cloth ing and bri ng a bottle of water. And for
lunch, try some of Thailand 's famous snacks, such as fried scorpions!

!J The market is very easy to get to . It's only a five-minute walk from Mo Chit station on
Bangkok's Skytrain. Many people come by tra in but leave by taxi. It's easier to get your
purchases back to your hotel that way!

Hi! I live in Mexico and am planning to visit my uncle in Dallas, Texas, next year. I'd also
like to visit Austin or San Antonio for a few days. I like the outdoors, local music, good food,
friendly people, etc. Are both cities safe? Any other tips appreciated. Thanks! Miguel

I'm a musician and live in Austin. I think the music here is the best in Texas . In fact, Austin 's
nickname is "the Live Music Capital of the World ." I can send you t he names of some cool
music clubs. We have fantastic restaurants here, too.

*RESTAURANTS WITH ADIFFERENCE*
Ninja Akasaka is a popular restaurant in Tokyo. A ninja
in dark clothes greets guests at the door and takes them
through the dark hallways of the ninja house to their
tables. The waiters also dress as ninjas. Ninja Akasaka
has over a hundred delicious dishes to choose from.
There's also a branch of the restaurant in Manhattan -
Ninja New York.

Annalakshmi is a vegetarian restaurant in Chennai, India,


with additional restaurants in three other countries. There
are no prices on the menu , so guests pay what they can!
The people who work there are volunteers and take turns
serving customers, cleaning tables, and washing dishes.
Indian art covers the walls, and there are even live music
and dance performances.

At Dans Le Nair (In the Dark) in Paris, guests order their


food in a place with a lot of light, but then they eat in
darkness. They focus on the touch, smell, and taste of the
food. The waiters there are blind, so when guests are ready
to leave, they call their waiter's name. Their waiter then
takes them back to the place where they ordered the food.
There are additional restaurants in London and Moscow.

(age 3, preschool , or 5, kindergarten) ; 2. graduate from I
high school (age 18); 3. go to college (age 18); 4. start a
career (age 22 or 23); 5. rent an apartment ; 6. get
promoted ; 7. get married (around age 25-30); 8. have
ch ildren (age 27-41); 9 buy a house; 10. retire (age 65).
However, due to economic changes and other factors ,
many people today do not follow this traditional
sequence, or they reach these milestones at increasingly
later ages. For example, many people take time off before
starting college , or marry well into their 30s or later, or
work beyond age 65 .
