1- Pre- listening:
TT: Last session we talked about the importance of peace at school. What conditions required to guarantee
peace and stability at school?
PP: We should resolve disputes, quarrels or misunderstanding (slight disagreement) peacefully- we should
use negotiation (dialogue) to resolve them.- We should also develop positive attitudes (criticising
positively, apologizing…) - we should be more tolerant …
TT:Suppose your classmate has a problem or has a dispute with another classmate, should you let him or her
down?
PP:No, we shouldn’t. We should rather help him or her.
PP:Now, should you scold (speak angrily to sb) or criticise badlysb when behaving wrongly?
PP:No, we shouldn’t. We have to criticise them positively. In return wrongdoers should apologize
TT: Now do you think making fun of your classmates is a positive attitude?
PP:of course no.

2- Prediction guide:
TT:Look at the picture page 44. What do you see?
PP:Two school girls
TT:Wheredo you think they are?
PP:they are in class.
TT: Now, try to guess why the girl who is holding her head is weeping?

PP1:I guess she has quarrelled with her parents.


PP2: May be she has obtained bad school results.
PP2: May be one of the teachers has scolded her.
PP3: May be one of her classmates has made fun of her.
Task one: Listen to the following dialogue and check your answers in the prediction guide.

Smooth transition: according to you, what feelings Maya expresses towards her classmate Leila?
PP: a feeling of culpability – being culpable (responsible and deserving blame for doing sth wrong) - feeling
sorry(feels sympathyand pityfor her)– ashamed and unhappy ….

Task two: Now, listen again to the dialogue and answer the comprehension question in task 3 p.44.
Keys: A- Two classmates: Maya and Leila. B- In the classroom C- Leila is upset; she is angry with Maya.
D- Yes, it is. “Maya has apologized for her wrongdoing”.

Smooth transition: Do you think it is good to make fun of schoolmates?


PP: No. This causes disruption and increases disputes and violence at school.
Task 4 p. 44: Using the information in task 3 p.44, summarize the listening passage.
Here are some techniques for summarizing:
- Focus on the general idea of the passage.
- No details in your summary.
- Use your own words, not those of the author.
- Never express your opinion in summarizing.

A sample summary:
Maya and Leila are two classmates. Leila is unhappy and angry with Maya because she has made fun of her.
Maya felt responsible and ashamed for her wrongdoing. So, she apologized to her and then the problem is
solved.
After listening (pair work): when you feel responsible for a wrongdoing in class (for example you use your
classmate’s pen without his or her permission). What should you do?
PP: I should apologize to him or her.
Well take turns to criticise or apologize for the wrong actions (A- D) in the activity “your turn”.Use should or

1- Anticipate:
TT: Last session we talked about the importance of peace at school. What conditions required to guarantee
peace and stability at school?
PP: We should resolve disputes, quarrels or misunderstanding (slight disagreement) peacefully- we should
use negotiation (dialogue) to resolve them. - We should also develop positive attitudes (criticising
positively, apologizing…) - we should be more tolerant …

Presentation:Now, consider the following example situations on the board:


1- Students must respect their teachers.(it’s highly important)
2- We shouldparticipate tosettle class disputes peacefully.(moral obligation)
3- Students have to put their blouses at school.( obligation: school regulation)
4- Youmustn’tuse the mobile phone in exams( prohibition)
5- You don’t have to do all in the activities of your book.( absence of obligation)
T. interacts with pps to deduce the language point
Rules:
must – have to /has to – should – ought to - need to+ stem = obligation
must = necessity-(orders/rules)- tell someone thatsomethingis important/emphasise a strong feeling or opinion
have to= necessity/we are not in control of what is necessary or required.
should /ought to= (moral obligation/duty).
mustn’t = prohibition
don’t have to/ doesn’t have to/ needn’t = negative obligation /something not necessary/absence of obligation

Task one (oral drill):Choose the correct modal verb to complete the meaning of the following sentences.
1- Bill starts work at 7.30. Now it is 7. O’clock. So, he (must- has to- should)hurry up.
2- Students don’t have class on Fridays. They (mustn’t - don’t have to- shouldn’t) get up early in the morning.
3- Children (mustn’t – shouldn’t – needn’t) use pointed things in class. They may hurt one another.
4- Drivers (should - must- ought to) stop at a red light sign.
5- You (must – should – have to) apologise to your classmate. You are wrong.

Task one p.46:


Keys: School rules:
1- We have to tolerate difference.
2- We have to respect each other.
3- We shouldn’t be violent, but we should be rather cool.
4- We shouldn’t shout at each other.
5- We should learn to listen to each other.
6- We shouldn’t impose ourselves on others, but we should accept the difference.
7- We mustn’t cheat at exams.
8- We should settle disputes peacefully.
9- We don’t always need to agree with each other.

Free production: Think of possible ways to maintain peace at school and then write two or three
sentences using obligation or its negatives.

1-ANTICIPATE:
TT: Last session we talked about the conditions required to guarantee peace at school? Can you remind me of
them?
PP: We should resolve disputes, quarrels or misunderstanding (slight disagreement) peacefully- we should use
negotiation (dialogue) to resolve them.- We should develop a non- violence policy …
TT: Well there’s a man of peace who developed non- violence policy to fightracism (racial segregation) in

until his death by assassination in 1968.
TT:Well there’s a picture on page 48 on your books. Look atit and then discuss the questions below.
What does the picture show?
PP: It shows a group of black people in a boat/ship who are chained, shackled, handcuffed. They are ill-
treated by the white men.
TT:Where do you think the boat is and where is going?PP:It comes from Africa and it is going to America.
TT:Why are they taken to America?PP:They will be sold asslaves.

Prediction guide:
TT:These dates and personalitiesAbraham Lincoln:1861-1865- Martin Luther King August (1963) are very
important in American history. Why?
Abraham Lincoln /ˈeɪbrəhæm ˈlɪŋkən/ He was the 16th president of the United States. He was born on
February 12, 1809 and was assassinated on April 15, 1865).B- 1861 was the year when Lincoln abolished
slavery in America. (On the board) . C- Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865.(On the board)
D-M.L. King delivered his famous speech "I Have a Dream" for the largest gathering of the black community
in Washington on August 1963. (On the board)

Task one: Read the passage page 48/49 and choose the idea that best summarises it.

Smooth transition: What have you noticed in the M.L King’s speech?
Task two page48: Now, read the passage again and answer the questions.
Keys: A. Martin, Luther King was a man of peace – He was a great leader who was able to combat racism
and hatred with non-violence and love. B- He wished that his children and those of the white man walk
together as sisters and brothers. - He hoped that all children black or white join hands in hands and sing the
words of the old Negro spiritual. He uses an oratorical. C- He uses the oratorical style in his speech in order
to make the audience feel the injustice of racial segregationand inequality. The characteristics of an oratorical
style is the good choice of dictions, the repetition of important wordsD- I have really appreciated King’s
Address because his sweet words create a feeling of love , compassion, solidarity, brotherhood which human
beings worldwide are in crucial need today.
Task two p.49: Do you remember the dictionary entries for the words “peace”and “war” in the previous
sessions? The writer has used three important words ’address’, ‘can’, and ‘spiritual’. Read their dictionary
entries and find their meanings as they are used in the passage.

After reading: Many people today still face the problem of racism. According to you, what are the best ways
to put and to this problem?
Possible key:The populationsshould be sensitised through the media on the importance of peace, tolerance
and other moral principles. The governments should offer the same opportunities in education, work
regardless the colour of the skin, the sex…etc. Parents must teach ethics for their children (respect, tolerance,
solidarity, brotherhood…)

1-ANTICIPATE:
TT: Last session we wrote on the rights and the duties of children in a form of class charter. Can you remind
me of some examples of rights that children should enjoy?
PP: Children have the right to free education and health care. They have the right to express their opinions.
TT:Which international organization defends the rights of children worldwide?
PP: U.N.I.C.E.F (United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund)
TT:Well, does the law allow children to vote at the age of 16, for example?
PP: No, it doesn’t.
TT:What is the age limit,then?
PP:18.
Reason for writing:
TT: Do you think this age limit is fair for children?PP:No, it is not. I think the age limit for voting should be
16.
TT: Suppose you are asked to deliver a speech at Hyde Park in London to denounce this injustice. Which
other age limits should you denounce in your speech?
PP: Get married at 18 - get a driving license at 18 – obtain one’s passport at 18…
TT: Which techniques should you use to convince the audience?
PP: oratorical style: the choice of dictions- the repetition of important words …
*The teacher continues the interaction paving the way to mind- mapping.

Age limits Wishes/hopes


- voting - Vote at 16 without being judged immature to take a decision
- get married - Marry early without the consent of my parents- take my own decisions
- get a full time job - To work early (15) to fulfil my dreams
- leaving school - Leave school early- make my life as I want it.
- get a driving licence - At 13 or 14 - drive to school – (travel somewhere in holiday without being
driven.

Topic:Using the information in the table, write a short address (speech) that you will deliver at Hyde Park in
London. Imitate Martin Luther King’s speech ‘I Have a Dream’. Don’t forget to have a good use of verb
idioms: can- can’t – be able to (present –future). The starting point and the ending are provided in the rubric
“write it out” p.50.

A sample Address:

Ladies and gentlemen, I want to leave school at an early age, but I can’t. Then, when I decide to get a full
time job, I am told you are too young. Then, if I want to get married at 16, the law doesn’t allow me to do
so.Ladies and gentlemen, think how it is unfair to wait till you have 18 to vote or get a passport.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have a dream that children of my age will be able to vote freely at 16 without being
judged immature to take personal decisions. I have a dream that children of the world will be able to get
married early without the consent of their parents. Then, I hope that we will be able to obtain our driving
licence at 13 or 14 and travel to any place without being accompanied by our parents. Ladies and gentlemen,
why waiting to turn 18 to enjoy full rights? We are all born free. So, we don’t want to be victims of age
limits. I have a dream that all children of future generations will able to live free and fulfil their dreams
during their childhood. Ladies and gentlemen, we can change things if you help us. We can as well bear a
change in the minds of adults who consider children as small creatures free from maturity.
