Reading: Introduction to a presentation
The student reads an introduction to a presentation and identifies connectors/linkers and gets familiar with their use.
Vocabulary: sequencing linkers/connectors
They also learn some useful phrases to introduce a presentation and learn more about sequencing linkers (e.g. firstly, in the next slide, to sum up, etc.) which they can use to present information in a logical manner. After that, they put their knowledge into practice by filling in the gaps and sorting out connectors based on their purpose.
