As a note, I have been following the standard lesson plans in the magazine, see example scaffolding lesson plans. This class is good in the sense that they are quiet, however, they do not like to talk or participate frequently.

Today's class used the camping lesson on Pg. 38 and 40, and we used the following strategy:

1. Find all the 'info' points.
2. Ask an 'info' question
3. Ask Why
4. “What about you”

• One. Info points (pg 40 Conversation A)
  • Pamela
  • Antony
  • Camping
  • Tent
  • Sleeping Bags

• Two: Ask a question
  • Who is Pamela? (A: Antony's Friend)
  • Who is Antony (A: Pamela's Friend)
  • Do you like Camping? Have you ever been camping?
  • Do you have a tent? Do you like tents?

• Three:
  • A: Do you like Camping?
  • B: No, I don't.
  • A: Why not?
  • B: It is too hot. What about you? Do you like camping?
  • A: No, I also don't like it.
  • B: Why not?
  • A: There are too many mosquitoes.
