They used slides to illustrate the pictures.

They had to read the names of actors, directors and years.

During the presentation, they spoke beautiful English but didn’t make use of any vocabulary from the book.

It was a presentation about romantic comedies made of names, years and plots only.

Sally read absolutely everything from the paper. She used language from the book.

Peter clearly didn’t prepare before and improvised everything at the time of the presentation.

Marcus organized everything before and studied his part.

The group didn't use any slides.]]> 2023-05-21 23:24:29 UTC https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2599101816 Topic: Music Festivals louisesilva5 https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2599102032 2023-05-21 23:25:01 UTC https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2599102032 louisesilva5 https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2599102221 This group talked about different music festivals. Each part was divided equally: type of festival - details about it - personal opinion

There was no interaction with the class. The group spoke for 25 minutes in total. It was organized like this: one person talks about type of festival, then the next person and the next. After that, the same pattern happened on the other topics until the end.

They used specific lessons for music vocabulary, but made research on the book for other examples of language that could be useful.

The conclusion of the presentation wasn’t at all clear, the last person to talk gave her personal opinion on a festival and the presentation ended there.]]> 2023-05-21 23:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2599102221 Topic: Food louisesilva5 https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2739999717 2023-10-10 13:52:25 UTC https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2739999717 louisesilva5 https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2740006024 The group decided to talk about their favorite food and they would always justify why that was their choice.

Using vocabulary from the book, the group focused only on two lessons that had key language for their presentation and nothing else.

One of the people in the group (made of 4 people) decided to get the video of a recipe to illustrate what she was saying. Having the video involves showing the steps. Obviously, the person got super nervous for having to memorize everything.]]> 2023-10-10 13:55:41 UTC https://padlet.com/louisesilva5/mt4baxin4xdrhuv2/wish/2740006024
