STUDENTS NEED TO BRING their MASKS TO LESSON 4
Bring the sign-up sheet (assessment section) for the evaluation session.

REMIND STUDENTS TO FILL IN THEIR ATTENDANCE SHEETS
FOR THIS AND EVERY LESSON.

Student's book page 91. "Mask Activities" - Warm-up

Materials:

Student's book (Click here), masks.

Students:

Whole class

Rationale:

Use of masks in role-plays.

Method:

Students put on their masks and have a cocktail party, making light conversation. The masks can help them to take on unusual opinions and to get outside of their normal persona.

Notes:

Notes: This is an ice-breaker, but as with others of this genre, doesn뭪 have to be at the beginning of the course. Alternatives to the cocktail party can be used for this mask activity:

	Police interrogation;
	Chat-show interview.

Student's book page 91."Storytelling" Project-work:

Materials:	Student's book (click here to see the student's page).
Students:	Groups
Rationale:	Further decision-making about the drama that students will perform.
Method:	Students use the table in the students' book to make plans for the different scenes in their drama
Notes:	Other Projects might have been lacking in original work so far, especially if students are still finding their feet in terms of Project work. However, this fourth Project lends itself to some sort of production being possible for all students and this page encourages students to think further about their drama, by deciding on the scenes and what will happen in them. They can even start drafting some dialogs (making notes on the empty "Rehearsal" sheet 3 pages later in the book) and some might want to spend out-of-class time preparing these items.

Student's book pages 92,93."Students Perceptions About Language Learning" - Homework:

Materials:	Student's book (1) Student's book (2) (click here to see the student's page).
Students:	Singly, pairs.
Rationale:	Self-assessment; learning strategies.
Method:	Students fill in a questionnaire about their learning styles.
Notes:	As with the cassette Journal (Lesson 3), this activity prepares the students to talk about such matters in the Final Evaluation Session and can be productively used as a class activity if wished.
