Comparing two authentic texts from magazines/ the Internet
레슨 상세 내용
Introduction: We look at two texts and learn how to distinguish fact from fiction. Sometimes it is not easy to recognise when an article is not real. Let's learn how to judge a text in English. As they say, fact is often stranger than fiction!
Knowledge
At the end of the lesson learners should:
• know how to judge the quality of authentic texts
• be able to use new words such as appetite, classic and icon
• know that there are different approaches to writing in the media.
Skills
After the lesson learners should confidently:
• analyse texts to extrapolate the meaning
• read a text from a newspaper or news website
• be able to discuss the important points made by the article
• form educated opinions about a text.
Language skills
• vocabulary
• reading
Lesson theme
Comparing two articles: “Judging Newspaper Articles”
Aids and materials
Two authentic texts, one an article in the BBC about a church theft in Russia and the other a spoof article about mint flavoured cheeseburgers from the “Onion” Website.
• Introduce authentic texts.
• Pre-teach essential vocabulary.
• Skim the text.
• Read the text in detail.
• Discuss the two texts. Which one do we think is the authentic one?
• I reveal which one is real.
Pattern of the lesson
Actualisation or recall of existing knowledge (five minutes)
I ask learners what the difference between a newspaper article and a story is. Would they be able to spot the difference? I ask them who had eaten at McDonalds. What kind of food do we buy there? What is there opinion? What do they know about Russia?
Introduction of the lesson topic (five minutes)
Why do we write different types of texts? What makes a newspaper article successful and what does it need to be successful? Talk about the importance of accurate reporting.
Pre-teach essential vocabulary
Pre-teach the following words (five minutes)
• appetite
• classic
• intact
• rural
• icon
Put each of the words in a sentence to make its meaning clear.
Reading (15 minutes)
• Skim through the texts and mark some key words.
• Explain your choice of keywords.
• What do you think the two texts are about?
• Read through the text again.
• Summarise both texts in about five to seven sentences each.
• Answer the questions on the worksheet.
Discuss the texts (five minutes)
• Which text was real? Why?
• Reveal which text really happened.
Plenary and homework (five minutes)
• Guess the word I am thinking about (a game practising the vocabulary and pronunctiation).
• Homework: review the new words. Find two texts on the Internet or in a magazine and present it in class. Can we guess which one is fake and which one is real?
