1- Check this link. Watch the video, please. (Clickéa y mirá el video)
2- After watching the video, try to write down a summary.(Después de mirar el video, tratá de escribir un resumen de lo más importante)



WHEN YOU  WRITE A SUMMARY YOU SHOULD KEEP IN MIND : (Para escribir un resumen tenés que tener en cuenta estas expresiones. El audio es acerca de o la persona habla de......
Primero, menciona que.../ describe/ explica......
Luego, agrega que......Dice que.....Finalmente, concluye que..)

The listening is about / or the speaker talks about ( NOT THE listening talks about)
First the speaker mentions/describes/ explains/
Then he/she adds that…..
He/she also says that…………….
Finally he/she concludes that………………………………..

You can also use comment/ talk about/give examples of/remark/

WHEN WRITING A SUMMARY OF AN ARTICLE YOU CAN USE THE SAME FORMAT BUT BEGINNING
This article is about…../the writer explains/refers to/describes etc (Si tuvieras que escribir el resumen de un artículo el formato es similar)

Remember to link ideas. Here is a list of connectors and some examples:(Aquí hay ejemplos de conectores que se podrían usar)
