Topic: Movie Riddles

Instructor: James	Level: Intermediate	Students: 12	Length: 45

Materials: worksheet#1(6 copies), worksheet#2#3(12 copies),

worksheet#4(12 copies), white board, markers.

Aims:

Students will work on their speaking fluency by drilling dialogue in pairs.

Students will express their opinions by presenting in class.

I want students to freely be able to talk about various topics through films.

Language Skills:

Listening: Teacher's eliciting and other students' presentations.

Speaking: Drilling dialogue in pairs and presenting in class.

Reading: Reading dialogue and movie riddles in the worksheets.

Writing: Filling in the gaps in the worksheets.

Language Systems:

Phonology: How to properly pronounce names, places etc in films.

Lexis: Film related words like genre, star, setting, plot, climax.

Grammar: How to make questions using WH question words.

Function: Asking for information and clues.

Discourse: Movie poster.

Assumptions:

Students already know

how the class activity is set up and run (in pairs, groups, and class).

what movies they like and can recall them.

different film genres.

Anticipated Errors and Solutions:

If students need linguistic support,

I will encourage them to find its meaning by giving relatively easy synonym

(or provide them with its definition).

If students cannot recall the contents of the movies they chose,

I will help them to recall by giving some hints.

If some students dominate the class,

I will give other students a chance to speak by calling their names.
