Learning goals

At the end of this lesson...

- I know how to prepare for my oral exam and have started preparing

- I will have read part of my book

- I will have practised speaking about my book

Your oral exam:

You will be expected to 'organize' the exam yourself.

You will be expected to talk about:

- Your own book: characters, important events, setting, the author's message

- Your own opinion about the book

- Your favourite part & why

- Similarities & differences between the 3 books in your group

- Any other topics you come up with yourself (connected to the books)

You need to finish the whole book

If you cannot finish the book in class, 

you need to read at home, too!

Finished the book? 

You may read a book of your own choice (paper copy)

> During reading time, everyone reads a book

> You should bring a book every lesson

Reading & preparing during lessons:

      - Step 1: listen to  my explanation

      - Step 2: read your previous notes 

      - Step 3: read your book

      - Step 4: take notes

      - Step 5: talk about your book with your group in English

      - Step 6: every time, one group member takes notes of the group  

                         conversation and shares them with the rest (shared document?)

Before, read through your own notes:

1.     Title, how many pages, how many chapters
2.     When was it published & where
3.     Protagonist(s)
4.     What has happened so far

To do now, in silence:

step 2- read your previous notes

step 3- read your book

step 4- when I give a sign: take a few notes 

15 minutes

Take notes after reading (in silence):

1.     What happened in the part you have just read
2.     Make a note of any important event(s)
   
3.     Copy a sentence that shows a character trait of the protagonist 

Speaking, with your group (6 mins).

1. Tell the others about the main character(s) in the book (name, how do they look, character traits)
2. Read out loud: a sentence or paragraph that shows what this character is like
3. Talk about the similarities and differences between your characters
4. One of you takes notes!
