Outcomes

Content

Learners can talk about Orpheus and Eurydice, their marriage, Eurydice’s tragic death and Orpheus trip to the Underworld to bring her back

Language

Learners can use the verbs “to be”, “have got” and “can”, as well as the Present Simple Tense, to narrate the story of Orpheus and Eurydice

Learning skill

Learners can work cooperatively in groups of four (4).

Personal aim

Want to try out open pair/group feedback technique when checking some activities. 

Educational aims

Students study and learn vocabulary items related to the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, then use this knowledge to create their own material (both oral and written; drawing is also included)

Timetable fit

This is the fourth in a series of units, an introduction to the myth of Jason and the Golden Fleece.

Group profile

There are 26 students in class, 13 boys and 13 girls.

Duration

One (1) teaching hour [45 minutes]

Assumptions

Students are pre-elementary (A1) level English learners. They have mastered part of the key vocabulary to discuss mythology, however their writing is still imprecise therefore needs work.

Anticipated problems and solutions

Learners may be unsure of some key vocabulary in the presented powerpoint presentation; the use of Greek, as well as relevant tasks, will facilitate learning.

Materials

History Student’s Book, Worksheet, Computer, Whiteboard, Projector
