                 understand the activities they will complete in order to write their itinerary and the activity schedule.
               • Note how important the use of the planner is for registering their advances: it gives a feeling of
                 accomplishment if at some points in the practice they recognize what they have already done.
               • Take into account that it is important to gradually promote more autonomy to your students. One way to
                 achieve this is by progressively sharing more responsibilities with them, such as letting them create rough
                 drafts of their language product. If, in your opinion, they are still not ready to do so, you could provide a
                 model and then ask for something built upon that model. The point is that products should be attractive
                 and interesting for your students. That will be an incentive to get them involved so they can learn to do, to
                 know and to be with the language, thus becoming successful participants in this social practice of
                 the language.
               • It is important to have information about the places they want to visit. If some sources are not well-suited
                 for this purpose, you may want to help your students discard them, once they have done Activity 7. But at
                 this stage, the point is to have enough sources of information to work with.
               • Listen to Track 50 before the next class.
