Required Listening - Lesson Plan (Speaking)

 This is for a writing prompt in the course: Teach English Now! Listening, Speaking and Pronunciation by Arizona State University through Coursera.

In the last peer review assignment, you created a lesson plan based on a listening selection that you chose. Now, you're going to edit it, deleting some activities and add in some new ones. Using some of the ideas related to speaking discussed in this module, add some interactive speaking activities(related to your listening selection)into your existing 50-60 minute lesson plan. Feel free to adapt some of ideas from the reading ("Excerpts from 100 TESOL Activities") into your lesson plan!
