2. Next, the teacher can divide students into groups so that they only have to interview a certain number
of people in the class.
3. After being divided into groups, each group will appoint a leader, who will assign particular roles for
each member. There will be students who interview and collect information, reorganize and summarize
the information, and present them to the class.
4. Students begin to interview their classmates by going around the class and asking some questions to get
information for their survey. Prior to the interview session, the teacher will make it clear that all the
exchanges should take place in English, and students are required to apply what they have learnt
during the lesson into the conversation. While students are interviewing their classmates, the teacher
can go to each group, observe how they ask and give answers to each other and consider whether their
questions/answers are informative and appropriate or not. (Observation)
5. Besides, to help students do their interview more easily, the teacher can give them some clues by
asking some questions related to the survey. (informal questioning)
For example, with the question: “What do your classmates think the ideal family is like?”, if students do
not know how to answer this, the teacher can suggest some criteria for an ideal family by asking: “What
do you think about a family with good mutual understanding among members?” or “What do you think
about a family in which members do not spend time with each other?”
6. Additionally, the teacher can even encourage students to do the survey in the same manner but in a
different class to make the activity more interesting and insightful.
Task 2: After students finish the survey, ask them to work in groups and compare their
findings. Then report to the whole class.
1. The teacher will allow the groups some time, in order for them to assemble the results of their survey
and prepare their reports. During this time, the teacher could also go around the class and come to
students' assistance if necessary. (observation)
2. With the groups that have already been divided from task 1, the teacher will ask them to present the
results of the survey on the board.
If students find it difficult to get their idea across, the teacher can suggest a template as following:
"You might want to say: After doing the survey, our group found that there are ... students in our class
who live in a nuclear family and ... live in an extended family. Some of us have both parents working, and
the number of our classmates doing housework at least 1 hour a day is ..."
"Among us, there are ... students who spend at least one hour a day doing housework. We also found
many interesting opinions about an ideal family. A says that….. B says that…"
While students are presenting, the teacher will note down pronunciation mistakes and correct them later.
(observation)
3. After the brief and concise presentation of those groups, the teacher will ask some students to make
comments on the work of other groups (peer assessment). Comments here might be:
4. After listening to the judgments of students, the teacher will give some general comments in the end,
pointing out the good and the bad points. The teacher will also announce that the results of this survey
will be collected, not for grading but for the purpose of accumulating students' work over a period of
time to assess their learning process.
5. Before the class ends, the teacher will ask students to complete a self-assessing form in order to know
the progress of each student, so that any adjustments can be made suitably. Below is the form:
