2. _{Create ongoing activities E.g. get students to keep a journal.}
3. _{Use level-specific material (you can include adaptations to your exercises to make them suit both levels).}
4. _{Communicate equally with the whole class. (Rotate the people you call on and treat every student as an individual).}
5. _{Use positive pair-work (Pairing up weaker and a stronger student for activities will allow the two to communicate and help each other).}
