step1 revision before my class , i’ll get the students to sing the english song that we learned in the last lesson to keep them relax. then i’ll have one student talk about the meaning of the song. after that, i’ll say, “well done. today, we’ll read more about freedom fighters. turn to page 27 and have a look at the pictures. have a short discussion in pairs and describe what you see to each other. “step2 pre-readingstudents practice for a moment and then i’ll ask some of them to describe the pictures.
(description of the first picture:
the first picture shows us a terrible scene. in the picture we can see the nazi soldiers arrest a large group of people. this happened between the year 1933 and 1945.during that period, adolf hitler controlled germany. he invaded some countries and killed as many as twelve million persons, most of whom were jews, captured soldiers and common people.
description of the second picture:
the second picture is about the southern states in the usa, during 1900~1968.though slaves in the usa were set free in 1865,they didn’t get equal rights until 1965.before that, they didn’t have the rights to vote and were treated unfairly. the blacks and whites couldn’t go to the same schools. there were separate sections for blacks in public places.
description of the third picture:
the third picture is about south africa. in 1990, mandela was set free and was elected the first black president of south africa in 1994.before that, the local people there had no equal rights. they were ruled by the whites and were looked down upon. )
then i’ll say, “now, imagine that there were laws in our country that you wear a sign, and only allowed you to go to special shops, restaurants, and schools or separate parts in parks, on buses, subways or trains because you were different, how would you feel?”
the students may answer,” i would be angry and struggle for equal rights. “
i’ll go on asking,” but what would you do and how would you fight for your equal rights? “
the students answer,” i’m not sure about this. i think i’ll think about it afterwards.”step3 fast readingin this part, i’ll say ,”after you read the passage, i think you will learn a lot from it. now, read the passage quickly and decide which of the sentences on the screen are true. “
