Activity 8
              • Here we include the answers
               to the riddles in the Reader’s
               Book. We did not include them
               in the book itself, in order to
               avoid unwanted spoilers. Give
               your students time to read and
               reach the answer by themselves
               and only give the answer as a
               last resort: 1. The doctor in the
               operating room is the mother of
               the patient. 2. Just one, Pierre. 3.
               He was driving in broad daylight.
               4. Motorbikes. 5. Because the
               river was almost dry.
              • RB Box can either extend the
               current practice or provide
               material for developing it. If
               you have enough material, take
               time during the practice to go
               through the Reader’s Book to
               foster curiosity and improve
               reading skills.
              • IT box icons appear frequently
               in the practices with suggested
               websites. We recommend you
               visit the websites before the
               session to check whether the
               contents proposed are useful
               for your class planning and to
               anticipate questions from your
               students.
              • Use this opportunity to explain:

               -  What a URL is (Uniform Resource Locator): it is the specific address of a website. It can include words,
                 abbreviations, numbers, punctuation marks, etc.
               -  What a search engine is: it is a resource to look for websites using keywords.
              Activity 9
              • Your students may remember the selection criteria established in many other practices. Criteria should be
               flexible enough to allow the inclusion of different types of texts (in this case, riddles), but also rigid enough
               to exclude texts that may not be suitable.
              Activity 10 Building-stage
              • Help your students focus on attitudinal issues when sharing their personal anecdotes, such as how to be an
               attentive listener, how to express ideas assertively and how to engage effectively without taking time from others.
              • Remind your students to have several anecdotes ready, so that they have a wide variety of anecdotes to choose
               from. If you know other anecdotes besides the ones in the Reader’s Book, share them with your students.
              Activity 11
              • Your students can ask as many questions as needed. Help them stay focused on the topic and not drift
               away from the relevant questions. This does not mean there are questions that shouldn’t be asked, but it is
               important to decide whether they add to the discussion or are distractions. It is even better if your students
               can self-regulate without your intervention.
