For more information on this approach please see the following feature: Teaching Conversational Skills: Tips and Strategies Of course, once students have become confident in their production skills, the can obviously argue the point they truly believe in. Aim: Improve conversational skills when supporting a point of view Activity: Debate concerning the responsibility of First World countries to help Third World countries Level: Upper-intermediate to advanced Outline: Review language used when expressing opinions, disagreeing, making comments on other person's point of view, etc. (See work sheet)

Extractions: In this unit, students will visit Ellis Island sites to learn about the patterns and history of immigration in this country. These explorations will serve as a personal link for students to the historical importance of immigration in United States history. Lesson One: Introduction to Immigration . Read and discuss selected resources about children and immigration. Children develop an understanding of the concept of immigration and reasons why people immigrate. Lesson Two: Immigration Explorations, Part 1 . Organize students into research groups to visit sites on immigration that were created by other children. These sites will provide models for students to complete their own research. Lesson Three: Internet Research . Using the criteria they developed earlier, students begin to collect and synthesize information on immigration. Students may choose to focus on one nationality or ethnic group in particular. Prior to starting, students and teachers together develop a list of questions that students will use in research. Lesson Four: Creative Writing/Historical Journals . Having finished their primary and secondary research, students write a series of journal entries, from the perspective of an immigrant traveling to the United States via Ellis Island.

Extractions: home about calendar resources ... For Teachers Approach The class will prepare and stage a single debate on the social and political impact of a scientific issue, drawing upon the knowledge and understanding they have already gained in GCSE Science. Every student will prepare for the debate but only eight will deliver main speeches. Other students will be required to deliver floor speeches or to write a report after the debate. This website provides materials to support four possible debates, drawing upon knowledge from each of the Science subjects: In addition to this site, the Association for Science Education also publishes materials on science and technology in society which are readily available to schools . Scheme of Work over 3 lessons This programme assumes the three science subjects are taught as double award but delivered separately by specialist teachers. If Science gets c5 hours per week then each subject within it will have c1 hour 40 minutes. The debating programme will therefore have to be taught entirely within one subject area, over two weeks, in c3 hours 20 minutes of time, plus c1 hour 30 minutes of homework over the fortnight. The programme of study below assumes that students have two lessons per week, of c50 minutes each, but the elements within each lesson could easily be shuffled into a different timetable format.
Extractions: A note: I recommend using all three parts of this lesson plan so students get a real feel for the period, but if you don't have time any of them can be done separately. Grades: Time: Overview: In the post World War II era, the government of the United States' foreign policy was focused on stamping out communism both inside and outside of its borders. While terms like "the red menace" and "commie" seem ridiculous to modern American ears, in the 1950s many governmental officials made policy decisions and conducted morally questionable covert operations in the name of protecting the freedom of U.S. citizens. What was that era really like? Materials: Internet and library access. Name tags.
