Week 2 - From October 17th to October 21st: Explanation of the framework PDP

 The framework will be used to plan the listening or reading lesson. 

PDP is a framework that can be used to teach receptive skills – listening and reading. In regards to reading, it helps in building learners’ reading skills as well as their reading comprehension. The first “P” in PDP refers to the “PRE” reading/listening stage in a lesson. This is the stage of the lesson before (i.e.: “PRE”) the learners read or listen to the text.

The “D” in PDP stands for the “DURING” reading/listening stage in a lesson. This is the stage of the lesson that happens while (i.e.: “DURING”) the learners actually interact with (read/listen) the text. In this stage, learners are provided with several activities that allow them to have multiple exposures to the text.

The second “P” in PDP relates to the “POST” reading/listening stage in a lesson. This stage happens after (i.e.: “POST”) the learners have read/listened to the text and have shown comprehension of it. 

The final midterm will be a class delivery, each group will give a reading and listening demonstration. The topics were delivered by teacher Orlando.
