1.       Resource Box

l        Bring the Resource Box to class.

3.       Find Someone Who …: Student Workbook, pages 48 – 49.
4.       Word Search: Student Workbook, page 50.

Teacher notes:

The activities for this session presume that all students have the Student Workbook.

l        My Classmates: (from Session 1): Remind students to transfer the information they collected in Session 1, into their Workbooks, page 46.
l        My Presentation Skills and Needs: Students should enter their assessments into the Skills & Needs (1) column in pages 89, 90 of the Class Journal. This is the first time this happens, so the Class Journal must be available for students in this session. Students start in pair-work, then as they finish, they make groups of four and go into Find Someone Who …. There is no need to wait for everyone to finish the first activity. Let students find their own pace. This will be a convenient, comfortable and efficient way of finding appropriate groupings, allowing the class dynamics to emerge.
l        Word Search This introduces the vocabulary that students will encounter in the Pre-project Learning (2) section of the course. Students are encouraged to visit the glossary on pages 292-302.
