Giáo án Project

Ss activate prior knowledge of ecotourism and recall what a responsible ecotourist should do before and during a visit.

Ss look at the key words on the board (ecotourism, local guide, responsible, trail, packaging, conserve) and answer the question: 'What should a responsible ecotourist do before booking and during the visit?' Ss work in pairs and write at least three ideas.

A pair list of three to five ideas on the board. Expected ideas: ask about access, safety and local benefit before booking; follow the local guide; keep to the trails; do not feed wildlife; ask residents before taking photos; carry waste home.

Ss identify the purpose, audience, opening, closing and key rules of the model ecotour proposal, and understand how each part contributes to the message.

Ss read the model 'Quiet Riverside Morning' proposal and complete Worksheet 1. Ss find the opening sentence, the closing sentence, the rules and the planning figures, and say which parts are labelled as illustrative. Ss check the interactive examples on the NeoEdu lesson page if time allows.

Completed Worksheet 1. Key answers: Purpose: to present a concrete ecotour design for a local audience. Audience: potential visitors and local partners. Opening sentence: 'Local ecotour design — completed proposal: Quiet Riverside Morning; 8:00–11:00; maximum twelve visitors; local guide; public trail then a craft demonstration.' Closing sentence: 'The final product is a route card, itemised budget, risk/access statement and advertisement; real delivery requires local permission and verified costs.' Planning figures: 180,000 đồng per visitor (guide 100,000, workshop 50,000, water and administration 30,000), labelled as an illustrative example, not a real advertised price. Rules: stay on paths, no wildlife feeding, ask before photos, carry waste home.

Ss form and use first and second conditional sentences to describe real and imagined situations in an ecotour plan, and practise intonation for questions and statements.

T presents the two conditionals with examples from the project. Ss transform the rules and risks into conditional sentences and practise the intonation contours: yes/no questions often rise, Wh-questions and statements often fall. Ss listen to T's model and repeat.

Ss produce these sentences: First conditional (real possibility): 'If heavy rain comes, we will move to an indoor workshop or give a refund.' 'If the group has a narrow section, we will offer an accessible alternative arranged in advance.' Second conditional (imagined situation): 'If I owned a boat, I would use it responsibly.' 'If I were a visitor, I would ask the local guide before taking photos.' Intonation: 'Have you packed your bottle?' (rising) / 'What will you bring?' (falling) / 'I will bring less packaging.' (falling). Ss note that context can change the contour.

Ss explain how to present a project product ethically: label planning figures, keep the title, audience and limits visible, and collect responses with consent.

Ss read the 'Produce evidence ethically' guidance and complete Worksheet 2, Part A. Ss discuss: 'How can we show that a figure is only a model? What must we do before collecting real responses from people?'

A list of ethical rules in Ss' notebooks. Key rules: keep the title, audience, method and practical limits visible; label planning figures and illustrative examples; if collecting real responses, obtain consent, avoid private identifiers and report only actual data; add source credits for any real information; state that real delivery requires local permission and verified costs.

Ss practise identifying the purpose, the details, the opening and closing and the key conditions of the model product, using complete sentences.

Ss answer the following questions in pairs, then check the key on the board. Q1: State the purpose and audience of this project product, and support your answer with one detail. Q2: Explain how the opening introduces the topic and identify the opening sentence. Q3: Select two useful details from the model and explain why they are better than saying only that the topic is important. Q4: Write a three-sentence summary using only information in the model, keeping any essential condition or limit.

Model answers. Q1: 'The purpose is to present a concrete ecotour design. The audience is potential visitors and local partners. For example, the budget per visitor is 180,000 đồng, labelled as an illustrative figure.' Q2: 'The opening is: Local ecotour design — completed proposal: Quiet Riverside Morning; 8:00–11:00; maximum twelve visitors; local guide; public trail then a craft demonstration. It introduces the subject before the supporting details.' Q3: 'Two details: the rule no wildlife feeding, and the heavy-rain plan (an indoor workshop or refund). They are specific and the audience can evaluate them.' Q4: 'The Quiet Riverside Morning tour runs from 8:00 to 11:00 for a maximum of twelve visitors, led by a local guide. Visitors must stay on the paths and carry their waste home. If heavy rain comes, the tour moves to an indoor workshop or the visitors receive a refund.'

Ss create a complete ecotour project product (route card, itemised budget, risk/access statement and advertisement), label illustrative figures, cite sources and give a short oral presentation with a genuine question period.

Each group of four designs an ecotour for a natural place they know, for example a riverside, a garden or a forest trail. Groups complete Worksheet 2, Part B, and produce a poster with: a title, audience, time, maximum number of visitors, a local guide, a route and rules; an itemised budget with labelled planning figures; a risk/access statement with an accessible alternative and a rain plan; an advertisement; source notes. Groups rehearse a two-minute presentation and then answer questions from the class.

A group poster and a two-minute presentation. Each poster includes: a route card, an itemised budget (for example, guide 100,000 đồng, workshop 50,000 đồng, water and administration 30,000 đồng, labelled 'illustrative planning figures'), a risk/access statement, rules (stay on paths, no wildlife feeding, ask before photos, carry waste home), an advertisement, and a source note. Presentations begin with the title and audience, and end with a genuine question period.
