Reading

Books open

- Students listen to the tape to get the gist of idea.

* It helps the students not only to get the gist of idea but also to hear the correct pronunciation

which can prevent fossilization.

- Students read the paragraph individually. (Silent reading)

* When they find a word they don’t know, they underline it with a straight line. If they think they

know the meaning but are not sure, they underline it with a squiggly line.

- Students sit in small groups and ask each other the meaning of the words they don’t know or

aren’t sure of.

- Help students with any remaining words they don’t know.

* Use the whiteboard, pictures, computer, … .

- Give different relevant topic entities to different groups of students and ask them to speak

topically.

* Encourage students to share ideas and experiences.

- Ask the students to do exercise 3 on page 16 while they are in their own groups.

* Use one of the common modes of teaching and learning.

e.g. CROSS-OVER GROUPS:

A form of group activity in which the class is divided into groups which have a discussion. After

some time, one or more members of each group move over and join one of the other groups. So

two students from Group A might join Group B, two form group B might join Group C, and so on,

and the discussion continues. In this way, ideas from the different groups are shared without the

need for a FEEDBACK SESSION.

* Go around the class and give help as needed.

15 min.

Homework
