Lesson plan 1: What happens next?
The “What happens next?” question is a fundamental way of engaging students with a video clip and using it to extract language. It therefore seems like a good starting point for this first posting.
Mummy and Baby Panda
1. Position the screen so that everyone in the class can see the two pandas. If anyone has seen the clip before, make sure that they don’t tell the others what happens.
2. Tell your students that something unexpected happens. Ask them to guess what it is. Write up all suggestions on the blackboard.
Tip: If you have difficulty getting your students to speak, tell them that you are not going to show them the clip until you have had 5 suggestions (or any realistic number of your choice). Tell them that you want them to use their imaginations - it doesn’t matter how silly their ideas are.
