Lesson can be used as ‘learning material’

Summary

An engaging whole class activity, where questions are set from a PowerPoint, which require students to find the correct answer from the information. First student/pair who gets the correct answer, win.

Resources

Miniature whiteboards, board marker pens, wipes, and worksheet A (enough for each pair/student)

Instructions

1. Give each person or pair of students (same table) a miniature whiteboard, board marker pen, a wipe, and worksheet A.

2. Give out the worksheet A for each student/pair and ask the students to read page 1 (study 1) ONLY (no need to go further). While they are reading, make sure you have the PowerPoint questions ready to be shown on a whiteboard display.

3. For each page (study) there are several questions. Display the first question from the PowerPoint to the students. For each question it will tell you how many correct words they are looking from the information sheet (this is shown in brackets underneath the question). Once they have found the correct number of words, they right this down on the white board.

4. The first student/pairs to display the answer above their head wins. They get one point. You will need to keep a score.

5. Go through all the questions set for page 1. At the left-hand bottom corner on the PowerPoint, you will see ‘End of Questions’ on some of the slides. This means there are no more questions to be asked for that page on the information sheet. The students will now need to read the next information page (e.g., page 2). Once they have read this the next questions are given and so on.
