T’s & Ss’ Activities

CONTENT

Before Ss open their books, ask them to work in groups to discuss the jobs they want to do in the future. Then tell Ss that they are going to read posts on the 4Teenwebsite from several teenagers who are talking about their future career paths.

Check if Ss understand the meanings of the words in the Extra vocabulary box. If they do not, quickly

teach the words by using definitions, synonyms, or the equivalent phrases in Vietnamese.

• can’t stand + V-ing: used to describe an activity or situation that you really don’t like, or find

extremely unpleasant

• make a bundle: earn a lot of money

• burn the midnight oil: work very hard; work through the night

1./ Have Ss skim-read the posts individually and try to remember the reasons each teen gives for their choice of career. Then, in pairs, Ss compare the reasons that each of them gives. Then Ss can read the posts a

second time more slowly for details.

2./Put Ss in groups of four. Tell them that they can look back at the posts and choose one post to discuss.

Remind them that they can use the phrases to express agreeing or disagreeing in the box. Move around

to observe and provide help.

3 a./ Have Ss work in pairs. Ask them to choose a couple of example careers, either from elsewhere in the

unit or from ideas of their own. Ss should then figure out their own reasons why they do or do not want

the chosen careers. Set a time limit of ten minutes. Tell them that they can also note down several key words/phrases related to their reasons.

b./Ask several pairs to report their decisions and reasons to the whole class. Have other Ss give comments.

This is an open exercise and there are no wrong answers.

Sample comments on:

Post from Tu:

- I agree that if Tu can sing, he should enroll in a school for performing arts.

- Tu is right. A singer can make a bundle.

- I can’t agree with Tu’s reason. Not every singer becomes famous.

- I don’t think every singer can travel all over the world.

Post from Anh:

- I totally agree with Anh that it is a meaningful job, because architects can help improve people’s lives.

- I can’t agree with Anh that architects work flexitime. My dad is also an architect and he has to be at work at 8 a.m. every day

Post from Duong:

- Duong is absolutely right. If he is curious about the natural world, that job can satisfy him in many ways.

- I’m sorry, I can’t agree with Duong. He wants to become a physicist because he is curious about the world, but can he be sure that he is able to do the job? Is he good at physics?

Post from Dzung:

- Exactly. What Dzung says is true. Student doctors do have to burn the midnight oil. They have to learn about everything related to their patients because their advice affects the patients’ lives.

- I totally agree with Dzung because it is very hard to work in hospitals. All around you are patients waiting for your help.

- Hold on... If everyone only thinks about the hardships, who will become doctors? Who will treat the patients, then?

Reading

1./ Ask Ss to work in pairs to discuss the questions. Elicit the answers from Ss. Give Ss three minutes to skim the article and compare their answers with the information from the article

2./Have Ss read the article to do the exercise in pairs. Ask some Ss to share their answers

3./Ask Ss to work individually. Remind them to pay attention to key words in each statement. Then allow them to share their answers before checking as a class. To check their understanding, ask some Ss to explain their answers.

Speaking

4 Have Ss work in groups. Each group should choose one job to discuss. Ideally each group would have a

different job. If you have more groups than jobs on the list, Ss can contribute more jobs. Ask them to make notes on a small poster, using the example as a guide. Set a time limit.

5 Have each group present their ideas and opinions on their chosen job to the class. Once they have finished, ask the rest of the class to say whether they agree with the points or not and whether they should add some other points.

As an extension activity, ask groups to choose another job that they didn’t work on. Have Ss read the notes from the group who chose this job in 4. Tell them to add any extra ideas their group may have. Ss report their ideas to the class.

Suggested answers:

1. A job is something people do to earn money.

2. A career is more than a job. It is an ongoing process of learning and development of skills and experience.

3.Very different. (A job describes what you are doing now, a career describes your job choices over your working life, with the aim of improving your quality of life.)

Key:

1.career path 2.peers 3. ongoing

4. alternatively 5.take into account
