Earth Hour - The killer moths

http://entweb.clemson.edu/museum/moths/exotic/moth1.jpgHey,

 

today we first discussed about Quentin's trip to England and then we did a quick warm up about Saturday's Earth Hour.

 

 

Here is the document we studied:

 

 

Here is what we said about it:

 

Earth Hour

The document is an awareness campaign, a form of ad to sensitize people about a topic. The scene depicts 3 men who don’t care about energy saving.
The atmosphere is scary / horrifying / dark/ gloomy / gruesome / macabre.
Something is going to happen.
A hord / throng of moths arrives and attacks the men. They take refuge / shelter in the cabin. But the light won’t turn off. They are doomed.
The slogan reads: “don’t be the only one”, “switch off”.
The document promotes “Earth Hour”, a time when you should switch off your appliances during 60 minutes.

 

Addtional vocabulary:

 

"to be written by Nolwenn"

 

Then we continued the lesson with the analysis of the essay assignment and how to comment on it:

 

"to be written by Nolwenn"

 

Link words mentioned and use:

 

"to be written by Nolwenn"

 

HW: finish the worksheet that you should have done for today but had forgotten... + answer this essay: "Do you believe in long distance love relationships? why or why not?" (200 words)

<br /> <br /> It is indeed quite fun! I'll use it as a warm up with other classes too. Hopefully, you'll see what the students have produced if they are willing enough to upload their lessons online...<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
