Stage & Objective Time Interaction Procedure


Teacher & Student Activity

The teacher introduces the theme by handing


students a copy of her personal diary when she was
Pre-Task (Lead in)
a teenager and invites them to read handout # 1.
5 min S-S (She uses this to check the meaning of easygoing
and strict). After reading, she will invite one or two
students to recount related experiences and will
suggest that many people react to strict upbringing
by adopting very easygoing attitudes as parents and
vice versa. (Arguments about this will probably
arise). The teacher will then give instructions for
the task and check that they were understood.

Students gather into pairs and prepare questions to


conduct a survey to see if there is any correlation
between previous experiences and present attitudes.
Task Cycle 15-20 S-Ss Pairs are then grouped into fours to try out their
questions and make mental notes of the answers.
min The teacher monitors the interaction and checks
production without correcting at this stage.

Students are asked to read a text (Handout # 2), in


which three different people are retelling personal
experiences about punishment they received when
they were at school. The teacher checks
comprehension through some questions. With this
new piece of information, students return to their
survey gathered into pairs different from those at
the beginning of the class, to refine their questions.
This time, the teacher stands by to offer language
advice if necessary.

Students go back to original pairs to draw


conclusions and write a report on their findings to
try and answer this question: “Does upbringing
affect attitudes? Then each pair will read their
report to the whole class and they could discuss
about differences if any.
Presentation: Results 5 min S-S
