Conversation Class Lesson Plan
Section: Advanced Conversation
Date: April 26th 2011
Class theme/topics discussed:
Soccer
How did you pick this theme or topic?
I talked about it at dinner with Sandie.
How did you present the material? (handouts, group work, general discussion, student presentations, etc.)
First, I went over some soccer vocabulary with my students. Then we went to the Quad to play against the French conversation class. This was great, because if the students spoke in their foreign language they had an advantage, because the other team could not understand them
How did students react?
They loved it.
Did they engage with each other and you?
Yes.
Would you recommend this activity for a future class?
Yes.
Why or why not?
It was fun and students had an immediate use by staying in the foreign language.
