Let’s review last year!
In this lesson, students will talk about global events from the past year, as well as their best and worst things from the last year.
Age: Teenagers/Adults
Level: Elementary
1. Play a slideshow or beam images of world events from the previous year you have prepared from a projector and show these to your students, asking them to identify each of the events. Then, write the year on the board and ask your students to work in pairs and discuss other important world events
they remember from the past year. Ask your class to discuss what they know about each event and conduct a whole class discussion, highlighting any
new vocabulary which comes up.
2. Tell the students that they are going to review their favourite and least favourite things from the past year. Hand out the worksheet. Go through the categories as a class. Ask the students to work in pairs and try to think of two answers for each category. Monitor while they discuss their answers and ask them to use the prompts in the extension activity to expand on their answers.
3. When they have finished, ask them to present their answers to the class. Write all of the answers on the board and tell the students they should vote for the top two in each category. At this stage, encourage students to try to justify their answers or criticize other answers, as the class focus should be on fluency rather than accuracy.
