Big Events
Objective:
·
Students
will talk about an important event.
Products:
·
A
nice presentation about an important event.
·
A
text with information about the important event they chose for their
presentation.
1.Brainstorming.
Write important events on the board and ask your students to mention some of
the important eents in the world.

Then,
discuss about the popularity of these events with your students.
2. Use the
questions in exercise 2 on page 102.
3. Give
students five to ten minutes to complete the quiz on exercise 3 on page 102. It
might be a good idea to pair students so that you have on student who likes
football and one who doesn´t.
4. Allow
your students to listen twice if necessary. The track is on exercise 4 on page
102. Ask students if any information surprised them.
5. Give
students a few minutes to read through the text on exercise 5. Alternatively,
you could ask various students to read a sentence each. Discuss the answers
with the class.
6. You can
use exercises 6, 7, 8 and 9 on pages 102-103 if most of your students like
soccer. If they prefer different events I suggest you to show them one of these
videos about a topic of their interest.
7. Tell
your students they will choose an important event and in groups of three people
they will make some research and prepare a presentation. Tell them to use these
notes as a guide:
·
Why
it was important
·
The
atmosphere before it
·
Who
you watched the event with
·
What
happened during the event n
·
How
you felt at the end
·
What
happened afterwards
·
Show
statistics of popularity
Also, tell
them they will prepare a text for the presentation explaining the most
important aspects of this event. This will be one of the grades for the first
period. They should also use prezi, powerpoint or something similar to make
some slides to show their presentation.
Note: I
think they can do some of this work in class, but they will have to work at
home if necessary.
