Lesson 11 -
Pen Friends / Free Talk
Lesson Objectives:
To
allow the students to contact other students in the UK - Pen Friends -
in order to improve their written skills and enable them to find out more
about student life in the UK.
The
second part of the lesson will involve discussion - this is to encourage
students to speak in groups and learn how to communicate more effectively.
Lesson Activities:
Students
tell us about their Pen Friends - and we discuss the options for setting
up pen friends in the UK. Second part of the lesson involves discussion
in small groups.
Pen Friends:
(Normally called Pen-Pal's) can be people that you write letters
to, or people you send e-mail with.
We
are going to set up links for students in our university with students
in the UK. If everyone can write a letter to the UK we will post them altogether.
