Easy Listening Activities

A Day at School

Answering Machine

Listening Review: Past Continuous

Yesterday Mr. Trego gave a test. After he handed out the test, he sat down at his desk and looked around the classroom. Most students were busy. They were writing answers on their papers. But others were looking into the air with a confused look on their faces. They were trying to figure out the answers. When a student asked Mr. Trego for a summer school form, he stepped out of the classroom for a moment. When he came back in, two students were cheating. One woman was asking her friend for the answers. Mr. Trego got mad and told them both to stop talking. One student finished the test at about 9:05 and went to work.
