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.

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.
