  4. Ice Breaker Venn Diagrams

  5. Venn Diagram Icebreaker The teacher pairs the students up and gives each pair a Venn diagram. Each student should put his or her name at the top of one circle of the diagram. Then the students chat with each other for a few minutes to get to know each other, so they can fill out the Venn diagram. In their own part of the circle, the students should write things that are unique to them. Where the two circles intersect, they need to write things that they have in common (e.g., age, qualities, hobbies, languages spoken).

  6. Students’ Chapter Presentation

  7. Homework Review • LLPs In groups of three or four, explain your LLP to the others in your group. Make suggestions for improvements in every LLP. Choose the group’s best LLP. Choose one person to present that LLP to the class. Class evaluates that LLP. Individual work to revise your LLP if needed.

  8. Homework Review • Discussion question 2 from Snow page 34 Consider a typical English course in your city and make a list of ways you could give students some choice in their English study (e.g. goals, homework, activities). Be as specific as possible. • Work in groups of three or four to develop one list of at least four ways to include student choices.

  9. Homework Review • Discuss the English Teaching Forum article in relation to the strategies presented. • Have you taught your students to use learning strategies? • What technique from this article would work best in your classroom? If you used it, how would you follow up or extend it?
