Task 2: Designing a Two-day Itinerary for the Overseas Students

 

Part B: Designing and presenting a two-day itinerary

 

  1.

Tell pupils that they have to discuss in groups and design a detailed itinerary for some overseas students. Before the discussion, introduce to pupils the language for interaction.


 

  2. Ask pupils to discuss in groups of four. Based on the interests of the overseas student assigned to the groups (LT 3.5), pupils design a two-day itinerary for him/her (LT 3.6). They need to describe the scenic spots and state what the overseas student will do / eat / see / play there, when he/she will arrive there and how long it will take to get there.

 

  3. Tell the group that they are going to present the itinerary. Assign different roles to pupils to facilitate the group presentation. Before the actual presentation, revisit the criteria for doing a good presentation and the useful phrases for giving peer feedback.

 

4. Provide a framework for the presentation (LT 3.7). Allow time for pupils to do the rehearsal for the group presentation.

 

  5. Introduce the self-assessment form (LT 3.8) and guide pupils how to use it to reflect on their own learning. Invite them to share what they have learnt from the self-assessment.

 

6. Invite different groups to do the presentation in front of the class. Ask pupils to fill in the feedback sheet (LT 3.9) for each group presentation and give constructive feedback on the content, organisation and presentation techniques. Highlight the good points that pupils have shown in their presentations and give suggestions for improvement.

 

  7. Based on the feedback from the teacher and their peers, pupils revise the two-day itinerary (LT 3.6) and write an e-mail (LT 3.10) to the overseas students, highlighting some of the interesting places they will visit during their trip in Hong Kong.

 

  8. Help pupils revise the target vocabulary and the sentence structures by giving a dicto-comp (LT 3.11). Read aloud the first and second paragraphs of the e-mail and ask pupils to fill in the missing words. Have pupils complete the last paragraph using their own ideas or with the help of the picture prompts.
