Main Aims

  • By the end of the lesson, students will have practised reading for gist and detail in the context of television

Subsidiary Aims

  • By the end of the lesson, students will have developed their fluency in speaking in the context of television.
  • In this lesson, I am mainly working on reducing TTT and giving students as much time as possible to carry out their tasks. Other aims are to improve pacing, improve giving clear instructions correctly, and to practise various classroom techniques such as ICQ and CCQ
  • Anticipated problems. Expected resistance on length of time allocated to gist task. Doubts should be resolved once the second task is explained. Some students are becoming more vocal and starting to dominate WC FB time. This is impeding ability to get quieter and less proficient students to speak. Must exert control if this happens
