Workshops for TTO students
Language & Culture / Part 1
In 2011 the English A2 course will be replaced by a new course called English Language and Literature. The first ‘part’ of this syllabus is titled ‘Language in a Cultural Context’, which is similar to the current ‘Language and Culture’ option. Thus it is both wise and relevant to start developing this unit already.
This workshop offers students and teachers hands-on solutions, with concrete lesson materials, sample assessments, and deconstructed texts. As a school you can choose to focus on a specific assessment such as the ‘written task’ or the ‘interactive oral’. A fruitful afternoon is guaranteed.
Target audience: TTO 5-6
Instructor: Brad Philpot
Topics covered:
- English Change and Expansion
