To be honest, I can add subtitles,if the students really need to understand the context and most of the videos. I usually prepare question sheets for them to work on, like songs, they just love them too. Their students' books already introduce songs every 2 units, but they like to bring others to class and we prepare activities like 'fill in the gaps' and others (vocabulary, ordering sentences..). Sometimes I find good real listenings in newspapers. I use them a lot too.
For interactive listening activities, I had never been aware of how much interactive listening students have in my classes until I started working on this unit. I always speak English in the class and I every day spend about 5 minutes talking about current news, anecdotes that have recently happened or just questions about our different weekends.
