Sometimes I share the link with my students a day before the session to study the new words and save the class time. Moreover , the link includes some questions and a test on vocabulary.
During reading: (26 minutes)
Students will be asked the following question: How many different animal groups are described in the text? (four). Students will be given 5 minutes to skim the text.
I will play the audio asking students to put their finger on the word as they are reading (if in a school class, I will be moving around as they are listening asking them to point to words as they are listening). (3 minutes)
Students will be asked the following question: what makes mammal babies special? (3 minutes for answers)
Students will be asked to read a sentence out aloud, so I can detect mispronunciation. (3 minutes)
Students will be given time for quick silent reading to circle the words that they did not understand. I will ask other students to explain the meaning of these words and provide help if necessary. (5 minutes)
I will break out rooms in Zoom into four rooms (each room of five students) and each room will be assigned a paragraph in the text to read and present the information they got (the text is four paragraphs, each about an animal type: birds, fish, amphibians and mammals).(7 minutes)
Each group will answer a critical thinking question about the type of animal they read about: (5 minutes)
