TALKING ABOUT DRIVING
Key
1. Preparation - useful vocabulary
10mins.
Ask students to prepare for the lesson by reviewing the vocabulary on the page, which they might need to use.
Encourage them, if possible, to use Expemo, Linguahouse’s online memorization platform which uses spaced
repetition algorithms to minimize the time needed to learn new words by heart.
Expemo is a special tool for memorizing and reviewing words and phrases. The application displays flashcards at specially-
optimized intervals. For best results, try to use Expemo for 15-20 minutes every day or once every two days.
2. Conversation questions
10-20mins.
Select and ask the student(s) questions from the list in order to stimulate a discussion. Alternatively, have the
students themselves ask and answer selected questions in pairs or groups.
During the discussions, correct mistakes by paraphrasing the students in natural English and provide the additional
vocabulary that they need to express their ideas and opinions.
Again, you can encourage students with mobile devices to scan the QR code in order to access useful expressions
for giving opinions, agreeing, disagreeing and connecting ideas. These expressions and structures will help them
discuss some of the questions in the worksheet.
