UNIT 3 - OUR WORLD: RICH OR POOR?

STUDENT'S WORKSHEETS

 


SESSION 4: LIFE IN A POOR COUNTRY

 
  By the end of this lesson you should be able to:
    • talk about what life is like in a town in India (developing country)
    • make a presentation to the class based on a slide show

     

    People in the world have many different legal rights. These rights are guaranteed under the law. However, in many parts of the world there are countries where basic rights simply do no exist.
    To solve this problem the United Nations (UN) has agreed on a list of human rights with which we are going to deal with in the following activities.

     

    EXERCISE 1

     Go to:
    http://www.globallinks.org.uk/liveto_india/visit_village.html

    First you will watch the video clip in pairs. One of you will watch the video while the other one will just listen to it. After watching it, the one that has watched it has to tell the other what he/she has seen making a description of the scenes. Once the explanation is finished, both watch the video clip again so that they can see if the video clip has anything to do with what the listener has imagined about the images.

     

     

    EXERCISE 2

    You are going to watch the slide show. As there are 12 slides, in pairs you will prepare a presentation of one of the slides to be presented in front of the class.
