there are many ways to teach immersion reading. here are some step-by-step instructions for one way to teach the reading in this lesson.
step 1: check to see if the students have previewed the text. ask if they have any questions concerning the meaning of the text. encourage other students to try to answer the questions. ask the class what they know about north america, including the population, countries, cities, languages spoken, history and geographical features.
step 2: play the audiotape. have the class follow the audiotape while looking at the text.
step 3: discuss the reading with the class. ask the class to summarize the main ideas of the text. make sure the students know the six main points (the six questions introducing each paragraph) discussed in the text.
step 4: divide the class into small groups. have each group do the one of following activities: draw a map of north america, roughly indicating in english the countries, major cities and mountains the students know; or discuss the reading, using as much english as possible. their discussions could centre around questions such as:
what two countries are in north america?
(canada and the united states)
the name south america gives you a clue as to this country's location.
where is south america located? (it is located south of north america.)

have the class play a game as a fun way to learn the vocabulary for this lesson. you can use this as an opportunity to review learned vocabulary as well. see "games" at the back of this teacher's guide for an alphabetical list of games with instructions on how to play.
