The Rock and the Bubble by Louisa M Alcott Before reading 1 Ask students to raise their hand if they have heard of Louisa M Alcott. Put students into pairs and ask them to discuss the questions about her. (They should be able to make educated guesses about most of the questions.) Students can check answers with another pair, but don’t check answers as a class yet. 2 Students read the About the author box on page 1 of their worksheet and check their answers. Go through them as a class. Answers 1 She was an author and poet. 2 She lived in the 19 th century – 1832 to 1888. 3 She was American. 4 Little Women (and Little Men and Jo’s Boys) 5 She was unmarried and a feminist. 3 Explain that students are going to read a poem she wrote about the sea. Ask them to stay in the same pairs and to brainstorm as many words connected with the sea as they can. Elicit ideas and build up a list on the board. EXTRA ACTIVITY You could extend this into a pyramid activity. Pairs make their list, then join with another pair to compare and add to their list. Groups join together to create a master list. While reading 1 Ask students to read the poem. They can refer to the Vocabulary focus box for words they don’t know. They should see how many of the words on their list in the Before reading section, exercise 3 are in the poem. Ask if they can find any other words for the sea. Go through the answers together and check they understand all the words. Answers sea, waves, sailing, floats, waters, blue, shore, foam, spray, rippling, sea-birds, ocean 2 Read aloud the main events from the poem and explain these are in a jumbled order. Students should match each event with the correct verse or verses. Point out that each event may match with more than one verse. You could put students into pairs. Ask one student in the pair to do the task for events a, b, d, f and to look at the first half (verses 1–10) only. The other student does the task for events c, e, g, h and looks at the second half (verses 11–20) only. Download 108.57 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
