SLIDE 2

Dictation: benefits

Students are active in the

process – both during the dictation and afterwards

Dictation leads to

communication

Dictation encourages

thinking about language and content

Good for mixed ability groups
Good calming activity for

“energetic” groups

Good for students’ de-coding

skills

SLIDE 5

Dictogloss: a popular modern variation

My basic outline:
Teacher reads a short text –

students just listen – no notetaking

Students share what words

they picked up

Teacher re-reads at normal

speed – students make notes

Students compare notes to

complete text

Teacher-rereads texts –

students fill in more gaps

Students compare notes and

collaborate again.

Repeat if necessary

SLIDE 6

Dictation/Dictogloss – My rule of thumb

The text should be something that the students work with

after the dictation process:

Finishing the story or sentences
Offering opinions on the text
Producing a similar text
Acting on instructions
