This document provides suggestions for teaching speaking skills, including role-plays, interviews, discussions, and information gap activities. It emphasizes giving students opportunities to practice speaking in real-life situations. When correcting students, teachers should do so quietly and sensitively to avoid interrupting the flow of the speaking activity. Overall, the goal is to help students gain confidence as autonomous language users through regular speaking practice in a supportive environment.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

5. CorrectingSpeaking
• It will probably be necessary for teacher
to correct mistakes made during speking
activities ina a different way from those
made during a study exercise.
• When students are repeating
sentences, trying to get their
pronounciation eaxctly right, then the
teacher will often correct (appropiately)
every time there's a problem.
• Some teacher who have a good
relationship with their students can
intervene appropiately during a speaking
activity if they do it in a quiet nonobtructive way.
• we can ask them how and when they
would prefer to be corrected.ggg
6. What teachers do during a speaking activity.
Some teacher get
very involved with
their students
during a speaking
activity and want to
participate in the
activity themselves
Students can
appreciate teacher
participation at the
appropiate level- in
other words, not to
much.
Prompting es often
necessary but, as
with
correction, teacher
should do it
sympathetically and
sensitively.
