Reading How to Improve your Memory

Post activity:

In groups, students create a poster giving advice different from the reading, to improve memory skills and then they share a tiny activity related to that (like a puzzle, crosswords, finding elements...)

After watching the posters, they can evaluate which poster was the most useful and why.

Objective: To read for specific information, summarize it in simple terms, and propose practical applications.

Stage: WHILE-reading

Task Type: Jigsaw Reading & Collaborative Speaking

Preparation:

1. Divide the text into four sections. For A2 students, keep the sections manageable.

Group A (Lifestyle): Tips 3 (Exercise) & 4 (Relaxation)

Group B (Food & Drink): Tips 1 (Food) & 2 (Drink)

Group C (Health & Rest): Tips 5 (Weight) & 6 (Sleep)

Group D (Brain Training): Tip 7 (Use)

(Note: The introduction can be read by all groups or summarized by the teacher.)

2. Prepare an "Expert Card" for each group (see templates below). You can print these or write them on the board.

Activity Procedure:

1. Divide & Explain: Divide students into four "Expert Groups" (A, B, C, D). Explain: "Each group will become an expert on two tips for improving memory. You will read your tips together and prepare to teach them to other students."

2. Expert Group Work: Give each group their corresponding section of the text and their "Expert Card." Give them 10-12 minutes to complete the tasks on the card together. Circulate to help with vocabulary and ideas.

3. Re-group & Share: Form new groups with at least one "expert" from A, B, C, and D in each. In these new groups, each expert takes a turn to:

Explain their tips in their own words.

Share their group's ideas for real-life application.
