Hi,Allan.
I have questions.
In lesson 7, I could see aims of the lesson.
1.Learn how to transition from presenting structures to practicing structures.
I thought I should write verb after 'how to', but I don't know why noun is used after 'how to'.
And in lesson 8, you wrote 'popsicle stick'. What does it mean? is it thin ice cream stick? And it it same meaning with 'tongue depressor'?
And in the end of lesson 8, you wrote ' When asking questions in B, try to focus on whether students can apply the materials learned.'
I thought 'When+subject+verb' is a correct form, but you didn't write subject in that sentence. Is it okay grammatically?
Please tell me, thanks.

Hi Ahran Kim,
Let's take a look at your questions one at a time:
Lesson 7 - Good question. "Transition" is actually both a noun and a verb. In this sentence, it is a verb.
Lesson 8 - Popsicle stick refers to a small stick on which there is a popsicle (you're right, a thin ice cream like dessert). It can be used casually in the same sense as 'tongue depressor'.
Secondly, yes, this is correct. If the subject is assumed, and of course here the subject is "you", it is fine.
Does that make sense? If not, please post again and have a nice day!
