​CA3 Dedicated Foodies​

 Pre-task 3.1

1. Dedicated Foodies Part 2 self-correcting exercises


Do the exercises in ​Dedicated Foodies Part 2 > Alternative Foods​ in ​Materials ​in the
classroom. They’ll help you widen your vocabulary, revise grammar areas and you’ll read
and listen to ideas about the topic in the assessed task.

Don’t forget to share different vocabulary items, expressions and grammar


points that you have learnt in the ​I’ve learnt something today! ​folder.

2. Prepare for pair work speaking

Write to your ​Group Discussion​ in your ​Work Group space​ to find​ a partner​ from your
group for the speaking activity. Once you have a partner, ​agree on a day and time to meet
in Tandem​. Decide which one of you will invite the other in Tandem.

 TASK 3.1 Dedicated Foodies!

Before you do ​TASK 3.1​ with your partner in Tandem, do the


self-correcting exercises in ​Dedicated Foodies Part 2 > Communication
Strategies.​

You’ll do two pair work speaking activities in the classroom Tandem:

CA3 Practice​ and ​CA3 Assessed​.

First do CA3 Practice and then do CA3 Assessed. CA3 Assessed has four tasks and your
teacher will assess your speaking in your first attempt of ​Task 3 or Task 4​. After you finish
the last task in CA3 Assessed, decide together ​which task you want your teacher to assess -
Task 3 or Task 4​. To do that, watch your recording and email each other to come to a
decision.

Finally, one of you needs to post a message to the classroom ​Forum ​> ​CA3_Tandem ​to tell
the teacher ​which task you would like to be assessed​ and ​the minute it starts​ in the video.

Note the following general advice for pair work speaking tasks:

Pair work speaking tips!

● Read the ​Tandem FAQs​ document in the classroom before you start!
● Your teacher will assess how well you and your partner ​speak together naturally on
your first attempt ​so ​don’t over-prepare or read from a prepared script​ and
remember to speak in English​ as soon as you’re connected!
● Use each others’ names​ during each activity.
● Tandem​ only works when both students are connected. One student must "invite"
the other student to do the activity, so first decide who will "invite". To invite your
partner, find your partner's name in dropdown menu 1; select the task in dropdown
menu 2 and click start. Your partner will receive the "invitation" and must click start.
Tandem and the videochat will open in new tabs or windows in your browser.

 Post-task 3.1

Reflect on speaking performance

Watch the video you did in Tandem and share your thoughts with your classmates in ​I’ve
learnt something today! ​in the Forum.​ ​Think about the following questions:

● Did you feel nervous before/during the pair work speaking?


● How natural did you sound?
● How could you improve?

us about one of these programmes! Write us a ​review​ of ​150-200 words​ on the TV

● give the review a catchy title
● give examples of the show’s content

in the self-correcting exercises​ ​Dedicated Foodies (Part 1) > 01.04 Writing​. ​Use the
Writing_checklist​ in the classroom to check your writing. When you finish, send your Review
