Teaching Situation:
You are working in a language school in a Spanish-speaking country. The students are
monolingual.
You teach a number of different groups, and you are planning next week's reading lessons
for your elementary, lower intermediate and strong upper intermediate classes.
In all three classes, the students get on well with each other and are happy to work together.
Your line manager has selected a text for each group, which you must use, but you are going
to design your own materials and tasks to exploit them.
The lessons are one hour long.
For each lesson, you would follow the standard comprehension lesson procedure described
in Unit 5, Part 2:
1. Lead into topic (warmer)
2. Vocabulary pre-teaching
3. First reading
4. Second reading
5. Follow on activity (communicative speaking task)
For each text, you need to plan only the part of the lesson specified in the instructions.
