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 Frixos and Elli, 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

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 a relevant True/False activity,
will facilitate learning.
