I will ask students to read the texts quickly and match each heading with a text. I will give students 4 minutes and this will be individual work.

I will ask students to read the statements for 1 minute. Then, for the first 2 texts, I will ask students to answer questions and for the last 3 texts I will ask students to decide if these are T/F. I will ask my students to justify their answers.

Post-Reading/Listening (8-10 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

I will ask my students to discuss these questions: 1. How often have you listened to unusual achievements? 2. Have you ever taken huge risks? 3. How do you manage unspected problems? 4. Do you think a person can overcame a difficult early life?
