Short description of the
activity and how you’re going to carry it out in class.
We are going to practice this vocabulary.
Day 1: we speak about jobs, which jobs they know, which are their
favorite jobs… At the end of the class we show a PowerPoint with jobs and their
images.
Day 2: we speak about where they work, one by one we show the images
with a projector and then we speak about what they do and where they work. At
the end of the class we will give them a photocopy with all the information.
Day 3: we do the hot potatoes exercises; they know this application
because we used it before. First of all they will do it alone and later they
can do it by pairs or in groups.
Link 1: crossword. They could have the list of the different jobs but
not the meaning; they have to look for the correct word. When they finish it
they can to try to do another crossword with the same words. When everybody
finishes it they sit in pairs and they will compare they works and try to do it
again correctly.
Link 2: they will do it in pairs and without the papers, they have to
complete the gaps, when they finish they can correct it and try to do it again
with or without the paper, they choose. In this activity they practice the
vocabulary and at the same time check if they know it.
Link 3: we finish with this activity they check if they know every
question at the same time they do it.
