Procedure (45-59 minutes)
I will introduce the topic of the article by writing on the WB, Amber and Sally are having the same context. So I will check with sts the meaning of "Rebel" if necessary.
I will use the selection of printed mixed words for sts to make three sentences. I will put them on the table and ask sts to come over and stick them to the WB. The questions are 1) Did Princess Stephanie of Monaco have any children? 2) Did Macaulay divorce when he was 17? 3) Who had an apology from President Clinton? I will monitor sts and offer help if necessary.
I will handout the article and give an instruction to sts. The instruction is to read only three minutes and flip over the page. I will ask sts to answer the questions. As they try to answer I will monitor them closely if they find the questions difficult. Answers are 1) Yes 2) No 3) Patty .
I will get sts to make questions from the article. The examples are Sts will have plenty of time to complete this task. Sts will speak up their questions to the class and I let the sts answer them.
I will ask sts o give me any rebel example. They may know it from their friends, relatives or Turkey. I will ask this question too; DId you do anything like that when you were young? Or Do you have a plan like this? I will hand out the questions from Anecdote part. So sts can discuss with their partners.
