  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on two or three Ss to read their answers and asks: Why did you choose this word? What clue helped you?

    Students

    Ss answer, for example: I chose referee because the sentence talks about the rules. I chose goggles because you wear them in the pool.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the correct answers and reminds Ss that they can check the meaning of a word by looking at the context.

    Students

    Ss correct their answers in a different colour and write the eight words in their vocabulary notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Reading for gist and details

a) Aims

Ss read the text to get the gist and find the details, and learn to separate what the writer says from their own opinion.

b) Content

Step 1: Ss skim the text in 1 minute to find the topic. Step 2: Ss scan the text to find the answers to the questions in the textbook, and underline the evidence. Step 3: Ss answer the question: Which sentence is the writer's idea and which sentence is your opinion?
Text: At our school sports day, pupils tried several games. The first event was a relay race. Each team had four runners, and the last runner crossed the finish line with a small flag. Next, the pupils played badminton in pairs. Hoa did not win, but she congratulated the winners. After lunch, a teacher taught a traditional game with simple rules. Everyone checked that the ground was dry and clear. The day ended with a short discussion about fair play. The teachers praised pupils who helped others and followed the rules, not only those who won prizes.

c) Expected outcomes

Gist: A school sports day with several games and the idea of fair play.

Details (evidence in the text):

  • First event: a relay race (The first event was a relay race.)
  • Team size: four runners; the last runner crossed the finish line with a small flag.
  • Hoa: did not win, but congratulated the winners.
  • Traditional game: taught after lunch, with simple rules.
  • Teachers' praise: pupils who helped others and followed the rules.

Writer's idea vs own opinion: The writer says that the teachers praised pupils who helped others and followed the rules. My own opinion: Fair play is more important than winning. Ss must write the sentence starter 'In my opinion' before their own ideas.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T gives the reading text and asks Ss to read it quickly for the topic. T says: Skim to find the topic, then scan to find details. T writes two key words on the board: gist and details.

    Students

    Ss read the text quickly for one minute and tell T the topic in one or two words.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to read again and match each question with one sentence in the text. T asks: Which sentence gives the evidence? Ss underline the evidence with a highlighter. Then T asks Ss to write two lines: one for the writer's idea and one for their own opinion.

    Students

    Ss work in pairs, read the text again, underline the evidence and write their answers. Possible answers: The writer praises pupils who follow the rules. I think winning is not everything.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks several pairs to read their answers and asks: How do you know this is the writer's idea? Where is your opinion? T writes the answers on the board.

    Students

    Ss read their answers aloud. Some pairs say: The topic is a school sports day. The evidence is the sentence: Hoa did not win, but she congratulated the winners.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the gist and the details, and emphasises the skill: read to find evidence, and separate the writer's idea from your own idea. T writes the key points on the board.

    Students

    Ss copy the key points into their notebooks: Read for evidence, not guesses. Mark the writer's idea and your idea clearly.

Activity 2.3: Knowledge formation · 7 minutes

Speaking from notes

a) Aims

Ss learn to retell the text in their own words using keywords only, in three parts: topic, two important details and an opinion with a reason.

b) Content

T gives Ss a set of keyword cards: school sports day, relay race, badminton, Hoa, traditional game, fair play, praise. Ss use these keywords to retell the text. The retelling has three parts: 1) the topic, 2) two important details, 3) an opinion with a reason. When Ss compare the text with their own lives, they must say clearly that it is their own information.

c) Expected outcomes

A model retelling from keywords:

  • Topic: A school sports day with many games.
  • Detail 1: The first event was a relay race. Each team had four runners.
  • Detail 2: Hoa did not win, but she congratulated the winners.
  • Opinion: I think fair play is important, because the teachers praised pupils who followed the rules.
  • Own information: In my school, I also enjoy team games. (This is my own information, not from the text.)

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T models the task. T holds a keyword card, says the sentence aloud, then shows the three-part structure on the board. T says: Use only keywords. Do not copy the whole sentence.

    Students

    Ss listen carefully and watch the model. Ss notice that a keyword card is not a full sentence.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T gives each pair a set of keyword cards and asks them to prepare a short retelling within two minutes. T reminds Ss to say: This is my own opinion or This is my own experience when they talk about their own lives.

    Students

    Ss in pairs use their keywords to prepare their retelling. They practise speaking to each other.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks three or four pairs to speak in front of the class, and the class gives feedback on whether the retelling has three parts and the speaker separates facts from opinions.

    Students

    Ss speak in front of the class. Listeners say: You told the topic and two details. Your opinion has a reason.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T praises the good retellings, corrects any mistakes in word choice and states: A good retelling uses keywords, has a clear structure and makes clear what is from the text and what is your own opinion.

    Students

    Ss write down the three-part structure in their notebooks as a reminder.
