Hi Yoha! Well, I've finally been able to post some feedback on your 2nd draft for this plan. Apologies for the delay! Since you've really capitalised from our discussion of your first draft, this time I'm only leaving you those questions still "ringing" in my mind: * I definitely like your reformulation of "motor-skill objectives" (certainly suitable for the target age group), though I'm not sure it's still concerned with motor skills (you might well do away with this category when teaching teens). * About the mind-map: if items are brainstormed among students, what "important items" would the teacher need to explain? * Homework: where are students expected to "find out characteristics of a mind map"? How does this assignment support their linguistic development? * Aims: how important is language teaching-learning in your aim definition? Remember students have got together to "learn English". Good job indeed! Gladys
