Hi. nice day.
Allan, I have a question.
Visual aids are not  useful for role play activities? At module 5 quiz number 2,  I failed.  while watching vedio clip of module 5, I have understood that visual aids(flash cards,pictures) can be used at role play in class. I am now very confused. Allan! Please give me your explanation why I am wrong. 
The  right answer was different with my answer. Please^^
Thanks for your great teaching all the time.

Hi  Hye Kyung Lee,

This question is quite tricky.  Let's take another look at it:  "2. Visual aids are very useful for all of the following except".  The key word here is "very".  Basically, you are right, of course visual aids can be used when students do a role play activity.  However, they are not essential.  When it comes to explaining instructions, structures, and vocabulary, visual aids can be very useful of course, and that is why the answer is role play activities. 

Basically, they are useful, but not "very" useful.  The question is tricky because of the way that it is worded.

Well, I hope that makes sense.  If not, please post again and happy new year!
