 * 2) make meaning clear through body language, gestures, and visual support;
 * 3) conduct comprehension checks to ensure understanding;
 * 4) negotiate meaning with students and encourage negotiation among students;
 * 5) elicit talk that increases in fluency, accuracy, and complexity over time;
 * 6) encourage self-expression and spontaneous use of language;
 * 7) teach students strategies for requesting clarification and assistance when faced with comprehension difficulties; and
 * 8) offer feedback to assist and improve students’ ability to interact orally in the target language.
