CA5.1 What Does the Future Hold?: The Changing World
Start by doing the self-correcting exercises which you can find in the classroom in the
Resources section: What does the future hold?: The Changing World.
You can find the
Resources section in the top right corner of the classroom. As you are working through the
exercises, take note of any new language you learn. You will need this to prepare the Tasks
below.
When you have finished, share one thing that you have learnt from these resources (e.g.
vocabulary, expressions or grammar) to the I have learnt something today folder in the
Forum.
In this part, you are going to do a Tandem session in pairs. You are going to talk about the
theme of the self-correcting resources, making use of the required language focus.
There are three stages in the pair work speaking task in Tandem:
●Stage 1 Discussion about comparing schedules and availability to arrange an
appointment.
●Stage 2 Making predictions.
●Stage 3 Brainstorming ideas for different types of campaigns.
BEFORE TANDEM
●Use the Discussion area in the Work group space to arrange who you will meet
and at what time (Classroom ＞ Work group space ＞ Discussion).
●You will also need to decide who will start the Tandem activity, as one of you will
need to invite the other person to the task CA5 The changing world.
●Please see Appendix for general information about your conversations.
