Then play the cassette for the second time and let the students follow the dialogue. Go through the dialogue. Let them really understand it. In the sentence “You’d better try them on.”
Ask the students to read the dialogue after the tape. Get them to practise it in pairs without opening the books. Ask some pairs to act it out in class.
