4). dialect: a variety of a language spoken only in one area, in which words, or grammar are slightly different from other forms of the same language
5). play a part/role in: be one of the causes that make something happen: Besides dieting, exercising plays an important part in losing weight.
III. Listening
To introduce the students to a dialect and a form of standard “English”.
You may follow these steps:
1). Set the context for the students by describing the situation;
2). Tell the class: you are going to listen to a boy named Buford. He speaks a Southern dialect of AmE with an East, Texas accent. Remember: pronunciation is determined by accent. On the other hand, Buford’s teacher, Jane, speaks standard BrE. (i.e. what is heard on the BBC.)
3). Play the tape for the students to listen.
4). Encourage the students to give the standard equivalents for the dialectic words from Buford’s story, using the context.

6). Play the tape again and let the students answer the questions in pairs after listening.
7). Check the answers. (Variant: you may also ask the students to retell Buford’s story in Standard English in pairs.)
IV. Speaking
1. Make sure the students know that the word used for directions often vary depending on what kind of English the speaker uses. Present the list to the students:
