Tips for Moderators

Slide 12 might be used for further practice. Send sts the name of one of the places using private chat function (right-click their names > “enviar bate papo privado”) and ask them to give other participants the directions to get there. Use indicator tool to placea reference starting point on the map. (see picture)

Though all words used on slide 16 are cognates, meaning could be checked before as the items are not previously dealt with in this class.
