Main Aims

  • To provide practice in reading for gist and for detail within the context of household and housework.

Subsidiary Aims

  • Speaking

Procedure

Stage 1 - Lead in (3-5 minutes) • To establish the context of the lesson (the household/household tasks)

T will use to set the context of the lesson and to elicit the vocabulary key to the reading task (grandmother, grandfather, mother, father, husband, wife). T will ask, in houses, what work is there?T will ask students to talk together and then take WC feedback.

Stage 2 - Reading for Gist (3-6 minutes) • For students to skim read and get a general understanding of the text in order to answer a multiple choice question

T will tell the students they have three minutes to read and choose one name/title for the piece of writing ('here a woman talks about her family in the past, and today. Read and choose a name for the writing'). They will choose from the following options: a/- My husband cooks meals b/- My family then and my family now c/- I love my grandfather T will ask students to pair check/discuss their answers before asking them to unfold their papers in order to find out the answer

Stage 3 - Reading for detail (6-8 minutes) • For students to get a more detailed understanding of the text and answer the true/false questions in exercise 2 p60

T will tell students to read the text again and decide which of the statements are true, and which of the statements are false. T will allow 5 - 6 minutes for this task, but will monitor and adjust time accordingly. T will ask students to talk in pairs before self checking their answers via an answer key.

Stage 4 - Scan for detail (6-8 minutes) • To get the students to scan for specific detail

T will ask students to read the text again, and find three things that the Grandfather does, three things that the Grandmother does. T will ask the students to write these things down. T will monitor to make sure students are on task. Once done, T will ask students to pair check before providing them with an answer key.

Stage 5 - Follow on task (6-8 minutes) • For students to explore the subject of the reading by applying it to themselves via a speaking exercise

T will show students a table with a list of household tasks. T will ask the students to write the name of their household members (wife, husband, son, daughter etc) at the top of the table and tick who in their family does each task. T will give the students a maximum of 3 minutes to do this. T will then ask students to stand and talk to their friends - 'do you have same or different. While this is going on, T will monitor, taking note of any necessary error corrections. T will take WC feedback.

Stage 6 - Follow on task 2 (7-10 minutes) • Free(r) practice via True/False stories

T will tell the students something about her family - for example - my grandfather worked in a bread factory. At the end, she will ask the students, was this true or false? T will then put the students into pairs and ask them to have one true story and one false story about their family/household between them. T will be on hand to help the students with language for the stories and make notes for problem areas to work on during the final feedback session. T will then match groups (e.g. two pairs together) to tell each other their stories.
