How To Use The Text Guides
1. First, try to only listen
Don’t use these text transcripts first. Try to listen to the
mini-stories without the text. If you understand them, you
don’t need the text-- just continue to listen.
2. Use the text when you don’t understand something
If you don’t understand part of a Mini-Story, read the text.
This will help you identify vocabulary you might not
understand from just listening. Use a dictionary, if
necessary, to find unknown words.
3. Read and Listen at the same time, a few times
Once you know all of the words and phrases in the Mini-
Story, you can listen and read at the same time. Do this a
few times only.
4. Just Listen again
As soon as possible, focus on just listening-- without
reading.
DO NOT FOCUS ON READING-- FOCUS ON
LISTENING!
Most of your time should be spent only listening. These
text guides can help you, but don’t use them too much :)

Day of The Dead Mini-Story Text
Welcome to the mini story for Day of the Dead. In the mini
story I will do 3 things. I will make a statement. For
example, “I arrived in Guatemala.” When you hear a
statement, a sentence, you just say, “Ah,” or, “Oh.”
You need to say that. Show that you understand this is not
a question. A statement is not a question, so when you
hear a statement say, “Ah.” For example, “I arrive in
Guatemala.” “Ah.”
The second thing I will do is ask a question you know the
answer to.
For example, “Where do I arrive?” I will stop. You say the
answer. You must say the answer to every question. I say,
“I arrive in Guatemala. Where did I arrive?” You say,
“Guatemala.” Easy.
And No. 3, I might ask a question you don’t know the
answer to. If you don’t know the answer just guess.
Say any answer, but you must answer every question. Use
your pause button if necessary.
Let’s begin. Here we go.
