DESCRIPTION: Review lesson (no tapes): banking and traffic vocabulary, sensory verbs, "because" clauses, present and past progressive, adverbs of manner, "for" + gerund, comparisons, reported speech, and punctuation.
INTRO: It's review day — nothing new this week, just everything you've learned, back for one more round. By the end of this lesson you'll be handling bank and traffic words, describing what people were doing, comparing things, and reporting what people said. First, the words from the bank and the road. Tap any one to hear it.
These are the words you studied this week. Tap a word to hear it.
INTRO: Jack just moved into town with money to deposit — and, before the day is over, a ticket to pay. Type the missing word or phrase in each sentence. The word box is there if you need it.
INSTRUCTION: Type the missing word or phrase. Open the word box if you need it.
INTRO: You'll see a picture and two cue words. Say a full sentence connecting them with "look", "sound", "smell", "taste", or "feel" — like "The pie smells delicious." The first one is a worked example.
INSTRUCTION: Make a sentence with "look", "sound", "smell", "taste", or "feel".
RUBRIC: The point is the correct sensory verb ("look", "sound", "smell", "taste", "feel") linking the cued subject and adjective. Accept any natural, grammatical sentence that does this (e.g., "The music sounds great."). A wrong or missing sensory verb fails.
INTRO: Now, reasons. You'll hear a "why" question and see a short cue. Answer aloud in a full sentence with "because", then compare with the model. The first one is a worked example.
INSTRUCTION: Answer aloud with "because", using the cue.
RUBRIC: The point is a correctly formed "because" clause built from the cue shown in the TEMPLATE. Accept any grammatical answer using "because" and the cued information; pronouns or names are both fine. An answer without "because" fails.
INTRO: These plans are already settled, so answer with the present progressive — "I'm going to California tomorrow" — and stay away from "will". Use the cue on screen. The first one is a worked example.
INSTRUCTION: Answer with the present progressive (be + verb + -ing). Do not use "will".
INTRO: Yesterday at four o'clock, everyone was in the middle of something — soccer, cake, shampoo. Type the past progressive form of the verb in parentheses. The first one is a worked example.
INTRO: In this part you'll review how people do things, how things compare, and how to report what people said. First up: the adverbs — Harold, for example, speaks very slowly.
These adverbs tell **how** someone does something — an adjective plus **-ly**: {Harold speaks very slowly.}
PROMPT: Jack does not do anything fast. At breakfast, lunch, and dinner, he is the last person to finish. How does Jack eat?
RESPONSE: He eats slowly.
PROMPT: No one can read anything that Mike writes. How does Mike write?

PROMPT: Mr. Summers is 76 years old. He got his driver's license when he was 16. He doesn't drive now, but in all those years, he never had an accident or got a ticket. He obeyed all the traffic laws. How did he drive?
RESPONSE: He drove safely.
PROMPT: The teacher asked, "How much is 6 times 8?" Right away Fred answered, "48." How did Fred answer the question?
RESPONSE: He answered correctly.
PROMPT: Yesterday the clerk made a mistake when he counted the money. The manager was very angry. How will the clerk count the money today?
INTRO: Everyone in these sentences did something wrong, and everyone is sorry. Combine the sentences: type the "for + -ing" phrase, like "for spilling Sara's milk". The first one is a worked example.
