In the pairs or groups of 3 ss will skim the reviews and answer this question: does the writer recommend this movie? Why? (Written on the WB), ss will read and decide in their pairs or groups and they report it to class. Next, ss complete the text using the given words.
ss will make brief notes under the given headings. For feedback check the answers as a class
ss will use the sample for notes and prepare their notes for their favorite movie and using the notes and write about their favorite movie. They will put up their answers on the wall for the other pairs to decide if they want to see the movie or not.
