Beginning of the lesson
7 min.
| The lesson greeting.
Teacher organizes a warm-up activity for a start of the lesson. Learners look at the names of different things which are on the classroom walls. They choose the things they like and go to that place. In small groups they try to give arguments and explain why the thingthey have chosen is the best.
Learners are informed about the lesson objectives.
Warm up. Free talk about the robots. Where can you see robots and what their functions are. The teacher asks Sts. in pairs to make a list of books or films with robots. (we can assume that a lot of what people know about robots comes from films. This activity gives students a chance to talk about films they have seen with robots in and to discuss whether they believe any aspects of these films may one day become a reality.

Main part
The teacher asks the students to listen to a short text and speak about the robot’s activity.
A long time ago, robots belonged to science fiction. Children loved looking at movies with robots. Today, robots are real, and they are helping us. In the future, we will all have robots. They will vacuum the floor, wash the dishes, and perhaps even drive our cars. I even think one day we’ll have robot friends. In Japan today, robot engineers are making robots to help old people and to keep them company. It’s still early days. I’d say we are another 20 to 30 years away from robots being everywhere in our lives. What will happen to us when the world is full of robots? There’ll be no jobs. McDonalds will be full of smiling robots. Maybe one day we won’t be able to tell robots and humans apart. Maybe they’ll take over the world.
What do you think about robots? Would you like to have robots as teachers? The teacher asks students to speak about I. Asimov and his books about robots.
Isaac Asimov was an American writer and professor of biochemistry at Boston University. He was known for his works of science fiction and popular science. Asimov was a prolific writer who wrote or edited more than 500 books and an estimated 90, 000 letters and postcards.
Discussion of the text” Robots”. Ex. 1 p. 115
In the groups of 4, the students write a short article about robots. They also have to think about the headline of the article. 2 students have to choose one book of I. Asimov and write a blurb of it.

Differentiation –
how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more
able learners?
| Assessment –
how are you planning to check learners’learning?
| Critical thinking
|
Differentiation can be achieved through the selection of activities, identification of learning outcomes for a certain student, provision of individual support to learners, selection of learning materials and resources based on the individual abilities of learners.
| Assessment criteria:
Identify the main idea in extended talks with little support.
Apply topic related vocabulary in speech appropriately arranging words and phrases into well-formed sentences.
Demonstrate the ability to participate in a conversation and write an article.
Descriptor:
A learner:
· selects an appropriate answer.
· completes the task.
· uses appropriate subject-specific vocabulary while speaking.
· discusses questions and answers the questions within the group.
· Observation
· Feedback on the work
· Peer-assessment
| Students think critically, exploring, developing, evaluating and making choices about their own and others’ ideas
