Guided Activities:
The next category is that of the guided activities. They are used for a little higher level of students as in these activities the students are given partial outlines or incomplete frameworks which they are required to complete. In some cases, they might be asked to develop similar stories or events in their writing or speech as they are made to hear. Let’s see a few examples of the guided activities that can be used in the classroom for listening:

1. 
   The first activity concerns the tale of a family tree. The students listen to a story told by the teacher about a family. A related picture is also given to them. After that they are required to follow some instructions.
   

Mr. and Mrs. Ahmed are an old couple with quite a big family. They have three children of their own among whom only two are married. However, the extension that is given to their family population is due to the fact that one daughter among the second generation gave birth to a lot of children.
Recognize and name the different people given in the family tree and add to it the next generation of their family by listening twice to the recording.

2. 
   The students listen to another recording. It is about two cars moving in the opposite directions. From one car a person is coming out while a person is going in to the other car.
   

Tell which car is likely to be started soon. Also create a story regarding both of the cars. Where do you imagine the first car came from, and where is the second car going to?

3. 
   The third activity concerns a narration listened by the students about a certain community of people living in a very peaceful environment. But there is one thing that is about to spoil their lives and it is air pollution spread by the smoke coming out of cars etc.
   

Create another story about what is likely to happen to these people’s lives after this.
