In Unit 11, The Receptive stage is something I was aware of before reading this chapte.
However, learning about the skills Readers and Listeners use, understanding that there are 5 of them, will help me make stronger lesson plan.
What I found useful in Unit 11 is how to choose the topics of the text.
On the first day of class, I get to know my student.
We talk about their day, what they like and dislike, what their goals are, and what their hobbies ar.
We talk about anything new they discovered or heard about in the new.
If they are limited with vocabulary, I will bring in pictures of people doing different activitie.
Learning about my students allows me to decide what text I will bring i.
When I am working on Receptive skills I normally bring in a song everyone is familiar wit.
Before I even plan the lesson, I ask what is their favorite song is in English Receptive lesson plan based on this particular singe.
I loved the Task suggestions, Jumbled texts, I will apply this task in my next lesso.

I did get some great ideas from this and I like seeing different examples of Patchwor.
Sometimes, my lessons are too simple and not engaging enoug.
Seeing an example of Patchwork for Receptive Skill is useful and I will use this example for my next clas.
I am observing throughout these lessons that there are so many ways to teach Englis.

Knowing my students Receptive skills is going to help me decide how and what text to use in the lesso.
One error I use to make as a teacher was choosing a high level authentic text with an array of complicated vocabulary word.
I would give my students an article from the NY Times, for example, with vocabulary words underline.
My students would be overwhelmed with these underlined vocabulary words that they would begin to pani.
They rushed to their phones, opening up their Google Translate and writing down each wor.
In the end, my students didn't learn any of those vocabulary word.
I had failed in the receptive part of their learnin.
Now I know I need to first, choose carefully what text I will use and to pre-teach vocabular.
Unit 11 reinforced this lesso.
