I usually spend the next lesson reading articles devices) before students begin to transform their opening into an extended and structured speech. The worksheet has all of the tasks on there making it an easy lesson to just run with. The last PPT slide contains the worksheet and it can be modified if you want to tailor it. Self-assessment slips allow students to recognise the areas that they should focus on for improvement in their next lesson.
