Céline’s trial with Year 7 • The Objectives To talk about an imaginary topic for 2 minutes . To practise, consolidate and extend the vocabulary and grammar covered so far. • The Activities • First lesson: in groups of 3, prepare and rehearse Topics: I am a celebrity / my weird family / my weird animals / I live on another planet / I am a weird person. • Second lesson: They used the video camera, the group acting and filming was sent to another room so the class did not know what the other groups were doing. I gave them a time limit (10 minutes) to film, to prevent over-rehearsal! 3. Third lesson: Pupils watched the films and analysed their work and the other groups’ work.
Benefits of using the camera • Encouraging group work • Taking charge of their learning (responsibility for planning, execution and outcome) • Motivational • Practice of aural skills • Assessment tool: self assessment and peer assessment
