Topic : How to share your opinions / what you can read from unspoken language
Level : intermediate
Students : 10 (Adults)
Length : 45 min.
This is about my fanciful class which I haven’t had
before. It was beginning from my personal experience. Let me briefly announce
that a couple of month ago one of my coworker was in an awkward situation. It happened
in the train. She was seating next to a baby who looks like 6 or 7years old
boy. But the problem was that he was so prankster and mischievous boy. At the
moment, he was crying very noisily and the boy was step on her jacket so she
was gently asked to his mother as like that “would you soothe your boy and take
the shoe off from my clothes” but the mother was so angry about that situation.
But apparently we can see that kind of scene very easily. So I would like to
bring this situation into my class. And before that I needed to set up my own
class for this issue. Eventually I decided to my class level which is
intermediate and adults - they might be able to discuss about serious stuff. I’d
like to ask some questions to my students and they are going to share their
opinions.
1) If your child is being unbearably noisy in the public transportation, what would you do?
2) If some other passengers scold your child, what would you do?
3) If some other passengers give piece of their mind to you about your child’s lack of discipline, what would you do?
