each word was pronounced twice and the students were asked to repeat the pronunciation aloud. Next, each word
was used in a sentence and there was a discussion about the meaning and concept of the words and the students were
asked to guess the meanings of the words. Following that, the Farsi equivalent for each word was introduced, if not
already guessed by the class, and the students were asked to make their own sentences the best of which were
written on the board. In the next stage the teacher read the text containing the three vocabularies once and then an
in-depth discussion of the text started. Each session started with a brief review of the previous session. There were
14 sessions dedicated to introducing the vocabularies and two sessions of review. Overall, a total of 42 new
vocabularies were discussed during a period of 14 weeks.
