Some unknown vocabulary is actually good, as they need to try to make sense of the ‘whole’ meaning.Read the passage out at normal speed twice. The first time students just listen, the second time they can make notes.In pairs or small groups, students have to share what they remember and attempt to write a version of the passage that remains true to the original’s meaning and has correct grammar, but does not have to be exactly the same.
