SAMPLE TEACHING AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES<br />

• When preparing a KWL (WML) chart on a topic, students discuss sources they can turn to <strong>and</strong><br />

people they can interview to find out what they still need to learn.<br />

• Students work in small groups or pairs to discuss their impressions <strong>and</strong> preferences after a class<br />

outing. After the discussion, one representative from each group summarizes the group’s three<br />

most important ideas to the whole class.<br />

• Students conduct a book talk after reading in a Think-Pair-Share format.<br />

Step 1: The teacher discusses the topic.<br />

Step 2: Students listen to a lecture or view a video, a presentation, or a discussion.<br />

Step 3: Students record their ideas individually (a list, a map, etc.).<br />

Step 4: Students team with a partner to discuss their ideas.<br />

Step 5: Students share their ideas with the rest of the class.<br />

• Students conduct an interview(s) on a particular topic.<br />

• After preparing a series of graphic organizers to explore a given topic, students conduct a debate<br />

about it.<br />

• Students listen to or read about a current news item <strong>and</strong>, in small groups, discuss their viewpoints.<br />

During the discussion, students may use discussion vocabulary charts posted in the classroom as a<br />

reference or support.<br />

• As a class, students prepare a survey to find out about favourite weekend activities. Students<br />

survey their classmates or students from another German class in the school by asking the<br />

question “ Was machst du gern am Wochenende?” Students may use computer software to graph<br />

the results of their survey.<br />
