I always find it useful to give the students short dictations.  It is an aid to comprehension as well as helping them correlate the spoken word to its written form. Naturally their spelling improves.

I like to start off with very simple dictations, using common everyday situations.

Ex.    Mary and Lisa are university students.  They study English together every afternoon, after school.   They generally study in the school library from half past 3 to 5 p.m.   They want to pass their English exam with good marks.

First read the situation and slowly dictate it to the students.  When they are done, reread the situation again out loud and then show them the dictation on the blackboard so they can correct their errors.  They can also use this dictation for forming questions.   Ex.   Are Mary and Lisa university students?

                                          When do they study English?

When the students have had some practice with dictation, the teacher can make up more complex ones using new vocabulary words as well as different verb tenses.

The next step can be a dictation where afterwards the students have to make up the proper questions for the list of “answers” . 

Example:   Henry Jones is a computer programmer.  He studied at New York University.  In 1995, he graduated and now he is working for IBM.   He earns $500 a week.  He goes to school for a special computer course every Thursday evening. He goes to this course with his friend, Jason.

ANSWERS:                                       I’m a computer programmer.
                                                          At New York University
                                                          In 1995.
                                                          For IBM.
                                                          $500 a week
                                                          Every Thursday evening.
                                                          With my friend, Jason.

The students have to write an appropriate question for each answer, talking directly to Henry.
Ex.       What do you do?                    I’m a computer programmer.
            Where did you study?            At New York University.

This kind of activity helps the students to “think”.  It’s not the usual answer a question, but seeing how to form a question for a certain response.  The teacher has the possibility of seeing if her students need help making up these questions, and if a general review is necessary.    

Once they are getting really good at taking dictation, the teacher can hunt up some short paragraphs that talk about different subjects.  Here having a good collection of short advertisements from magazines, is truly a help. I even like the short articles from English newspapers.   USA TODAY is especially valuable as the articles are often short and interesting.
