Pre-listening
2. Using the photos, try to predict the answers to the following questions.

You can probably try different activities to learn about sound, light, reflection, and so on. For example, you can go to a room with many mirrors facing each other so it looks like there are many copies of you! You can also play with a big piano on the floor.

Predict by using pictures
One way to get more out of your listening is to predict what you will hear. Using the pictures provided and the knowledge you already have, you can guess the kinds of information you should listen for. At times, you may even be able to guess exactly what will be talked about. This will help you focus better when listening, making your listening more effective.
What can we predict in these pictures?
1. Who? What? Where? When?
2. Can we classify them into different types?
Picture A & B: sound; Picture C&D&E: light.
