This

exercise will encourage the learners to look at the language in the text and to

think about why and when it is used.

I’m

going to set my students a project where they have to use the internet and do

some research into different aspects of the topic beforehand.

I

know the texts have a lot of unknown grammar and lexis, but I think I’ll use a

lot more authentic material in my lessons so that my students don’t have to

rely on the coursebook alone.

I

know some of the students won’t want to speak straightaway, so I’ll leave them

to just work things out.

I’ve

built in some time for correction on the board with the whole class at the

end of the lesson, so that I can pick up and deal with mistakes that I’ve heard

during the class.
