Write examples using the linguistic topics you studied by watching the Language Videos. TG (Knowledge Sharing)
Duration: 18-22 minutes
You can use the pictures below for inspiration, or any other context you’d like.
Setting: Pairs or Groups
Groupings: Same Level and
Mixed Levels
Procedures: Explain to
students that they are supposed
to write sentences using the
linguistic topics they learned
in their class preparation. After
they do it, they will present
the examples, structures, and
uses of the linguistic topics to
the class. They can use the
pictures for their examples,
or come up with sentences of
contexts other than those. Split
students in same-level groups
into Breakout Rooms and give
them 10 minutes to prepare a
presentation about the linguistic
topics listed below, in which
they will give an example,
and explain the uses. Visit the
Breakout Rooms to help them
with their topics, provide them
with hints for the presentations,
and make sure everyone is
participating. Remind students
that you can visit only one
group at a time, but they can
ask for help anytime they want
(explain to them how to use
the tool). When students are
in groups, they can produce
together by sharing a Google
Doc, then sharing their screen
with you. The Annotation tool
can also be used in the Breakout
Rooms. Visit students more than
once, giving them the chance
to try to self-correct. When
time is up, make sure everyone
returns to the Main Room. Then,
give students about 10 minutes
to present the main linguistic
topics they used during the
activity. For the presentations,
share the Whiteboard screen,
and tell them to write using the
Annotation tool. You can also
divide the Whiteboard into parts
by using the Draw function.

3. Text
Read the text and answer the questions about Up Group according to your level.

Up Group

Atlanta, Georgia

We are proud to announce that Up Group has made important changes in its
processes and is now recognized as a green company. We have recently built a
recycling center, where all workers can throw recycling material during worktime,
and even bring recycling material from their homes any time from 8:00 a.m. to
8:00 p.m., which is when the company opens and closes. By doing so, we motivate
all workers who do not know what to do with the material or where to throw it to
give trash the right destination. When it comes to plastic, every month we have
campaigns about reducing plastic waste, and all workers have their own mugs
as well. Twice a month, during our meetings, we dedicate a few minutes to look
for new solutions to print less and reduce paper waste. We have also adopted
new technology to reduce our daily energy demand. We have also implemented
new technology which will allow us to reduce carbon emission on 90% of our new
products.
