I would like to finish this lesson with a class speaking activity(discussion)- one of the types of speaking activities. Follow up with a whole-class discussion on the following questions which are attached as Appendix 3. The aim of this task is for students to discuss their own job searching experience via media e.g newspaper in a free-speaking activity.

a. What did you learn about jobs in the UK?

b. Do you have job advertisements in your country?

c. Have you tried looking for a job using the newspaper?

The students will be monitored to ensure everyone has understood, is speaking, is using English, and doesn’t have any problem. I will try to help the quiet students and guide them back to join in the discussion.

I will allow enough time to get some feedback using either of this method :

• One group could tell another group what they have discussed

• Select certain students to give some feedback.

Finally, any correction to the students’ feedback will be done after the activity has finished.
