Reading Room

Today we are going to do some reading. You can decide yourself what you want to read about. Browse through newspaper websites and find articles that interest you. You can chose any topic you like, be it politics, sport, music, film …

Your task is to find one article which you have to read carefully and then present it to somebody else in the class. In 2 to 3 minutes, tell your partner what the article is about and what you found interesting about it. Swap partners a couple of times!

Here are some surfing tips:

www.guardian.co.uk
www.independent.co.uk
www.bbc.co.uk
www.nytimes.com

Of course you can use other websites, blogs etc. as well!

Make notes and look up words you don't know in a dictionary or online dictionary.

Time: Reading and preparation: 65 minutes, presentation 20 minutes.
