they talk, circulate and
monitor, assisting students

words, the aim is to stimulate

the text and directing their
attention to the elements
that form an advertisement.
Interpreting images in this

do the task individually and
check answers in pairs or

Activity 2
After checking the activity,
make sure students are able to
relate words, such as knobbly,
gangling, bossy and bushy
to physical descriptions,
eventhough they do not know
their meaning. If appropriate,
also point out the use of
had, was and wore in the
descriptions, clarifying that they
correspond to the past form
of the verbs have, be and wear
respectively.
Activity 3
Students’ descriptions in
Activity 1 will probably look
much simpler than the one
in Activity 2. Clarify that the
aim in Activity 3 is not to
produce a similar description,
but to raise awareness of the
importance of using adjectives
when describing physical
appearance. Explain that,
in more complex situations,
descriptions may involve more
sophisticated structures and
the frequent use of more than
one adjective to describe the
same noun, for example, large
front teeth.
Understanding Language
Draw students’ attention to
the box and ask them to do the
activities individually. Before
checking the activity, and if time
Grammar allows, ask students to compare their answers with
Activity 1 those of a classmate and modify them if necessary.
Ask students to close their books. Write Harry Potter
on the board. Activate students’ prior knowledge
by asking what they know about the Harry Potter
series and about the physical appearance of the
characters Harry Potter, Hermione and Ron.
Answers may be listed on the board for reference,
for example, wears glasses, has red hair, has brown
hair, etc. Organize students into pairs and ask
them to write simple sentences describing these
characters in their notebooks. Monitor and help if
necessary. Then ask students to open their books
and look at the pictures, comparing them with the
words on the board and their own descriptions.

Before having students do the
activity, ask about the people
in the pictures: their names,
their professions, why they
are famous, etc. Then instruct
students to complete the
descriptions by putting the
given words in the right order.
If necessary, refer them back
to the previous activity where
they got to some conclusions
as regards the order of
adjectives. Allow students
to compare their answers in
pairs and then check them
with the whole class.

Self-assessment
Designed to develop the
learners’ responsibility for
their own learning, in this
section students are led
to become aware of their
strengths and weaknesses in
order to foster self-reflection
on the learning process. By
identifying their weaknesses,
students can ask for help
from a classmate, redo
some activities, focus on
the activities of the Review
sections, refer to the Grammar
Reference or perform the
Workbook activities. Ideally,
students always have a sense
of success or the desire to get
it, and thus they devote more
effort to learning. Successful
learning experiences are the
driving force for the desire to
learn more and better.
Having Fun!
These activities are not only
meant to be performed at the
end of the unit; they can be
done at the beginning or at
the end of a class, or during
a lesson as a moment of
relaxation.

Reading
Activity 1
Organize students into pairs.
Some of them probably do not
know who Martin Luther King
Jr. was, but the goal is that
they use their knowledge of
the world to choose the most
coherent options.
Activity 2
Ask students to read the
text quickly just to confirm
their answers in the previous
activity. Try not to clarify
vocabulary doubts at this
stage, but rather encourage
students to concentrate only
on the requested information.
Activity 3
Read the instructions with
the whole class and draw
students’ attention to the sentences next to the
boxes. After checking, clarify any vocabulary doubts.
Alternatively, you can choose some words that you
believe students do not know and try to elicit the
meaning of these words from the context given.
100
www.frenglish.ru
UNIT 8
Activity 6
Do the activity with the whole
class, encouraging students
to highlight any words they
already know and to deduce
the meaning of any unknown
words.
Activity 7
It is interesting to consider
and discuss small attitudes
that can go unnoticed,
but which may reveal
discriminatory behavior,
such as certain jokes and
expressions which are
common but in fact extremely
racist. Take this opportunity
to discuss the importance of
respecting people in general,
without discriminating due to
skin color, origin, social class,
religion, sexual orientation,
etc. If possible, mention the
fact that black people are still
a minority in strategic
positions of power or
prestigious roles in society.
If appropriate, you can clarify
the meaning of prejudice and
discrimination.
Activity 4
Students can do the activity individually and then
compare their answers with those of a classmate. Answers

example, Who are the men next to the girl?, Why
are they there?, Where is she going?, How old do
you think she is?, etc. It’s not necessary to extend
the discussion at this point, because this historical
fact will be revisited in the Listening section, in
which students will hear a description of the scene
in which she is accompanied by federal officers.

Grammar
Activity 1
Draw students’ attention to
the photo and ask what they
remember or know about
Nelson Mandela. Write the
students’ ideas on the board
in the form of notes. Ask
students to read and identify if
some of the information they
gave is mentioned in the text.
Then read the instructions to
the whole class and ask them
to do the task individually.
Understanding Language
After doing the activity and
checking answers with the
whole class, propose a lottery.
Ask students to draw three
columns, with 14 lines each. In
the first line of each column,
they should write /t/, /d/ and
/Id/. Meanwhile, select and
write down 13 regular verbs
that have appeared in the unit
or have been mentioned by
students. Dictate the verbs
one by one. Students should
mark an X in the column
corresponding to the sound
of the verb in the past tense.
Tell students they do not need
to write the verb, only focus
on the sound. Check answers
with the whole class.

Activity 1
Write Martin Luther King Jr.,
Ruby Bridges, Nelson Mandela
and Rosa Parks on the board.
Ask students what they know
or remember about each of
these characters. Read the
instructions with the whole
class and ask them to do the
activity individually.
Understanding Language
Do the first item in the activity
with the whole class. Then ask
them to complete the other
items individually or in pairs.
Check the activity with the
whole class. Ask students to
write two sentences about
them and two sentences about
a friend or family member,
including dates and the
corresponding prepositions.
Have some students share
their answers with the whole
class and write the sentences
on the board.
Activity 2
Draw students’ attention to
the pictures. Ask if they know
these people and, if so, what
they know about them. Ask
students what they think the
texts are about.
104
www.frenglish.ru
UNIT 8
Activity 6
Encourage students to reflect
on what was discussed about
discrimination in the unit
and draw a parallel with the
presented picture. Expand
the discussion by asking
students what they think each
individual can do to combat
any kind of discrimination. If
appropriate, talk to students
about the importance of
knowing about and discussing
historical facts, with a view to
raising awareness of equality
and respect for all ethnic
groups, peoples, social classes,
etc. For example, mention the
importance of using respectful
language, avoiding nicknames
and inappropriate terms that
may hurt others’ feelings, and
treating all classmates with
respect and equality. Even
the history or social sciences
teacher may be invited to
support the discussion.

Writing
Activity 1
If students find it difficult to
complete the paragraph on
their own, you can help them
by writing the first letter of
each word (r, c, f). You can add
letters until students arrive at
the correct words.
Activity 2
Read the step-by-step
instructions with the whole
class and clarify any doubts
students may have. You can
ask them to do this activity
at home, since students
will probably need time
and resources to do their
research. Tell students it is not
necessary to choose a famous
character, but just somebody
that they admire.
Activity 3
If appropriate, you can
organize students into small
groups instead of pairs, so
they can exchange ideas about
more texts.
