English B SL language acquisition practice. This original stimulus is linked to the theme of identities and the context of a podcast episode about names and identity. A student is preparing for the SL individual oral visual-stimulus presentation. What should they say or prepare so description, theme link, target-culture connection, interaction, and communication stay natural? Select the task focus, source clue, language choice, and communication judgement. Then answer in your own words: what should the student do next to strengthen this English B SL response?
