Mini-project for your English classes where your students will do a research about a festival or celebration and will prepare the oral presentation to present it to their classmates. In the pack, I provide the bibliography of a reader (level A1 in the Common European Reference of Languages) that you can read before the project.
You will need around 4-5 sessions to implement it.
Session 1. Students arrange in groups and decide the festival they want to present. They start doing the research and answer the questionnaire (Worksheet 2) using computers or information in paper format.
Sessions 2-3. Students complete the questionnaire and start the presentation in Google Slides using the questionnaire. They will include photos/images/video. Students can share the document in Google Drive and work together.
Session 4. Students prepare the oral presentation. Each member of the group will present a section of the final product.
Session 5. Oral presentation of the festival for each group. Students will assess their classmates with the rubric (Co-assessment rubric) and the teacher will assess using the Teacher’s rubric.
The worksheets provided include the steps that the students have to follow (in groups) to do the research and the questions that they have to answer and include in their Gooogle Slides or Powerpoints.
Moreover, there are also 2 rubrics that will assess the final product, that is, the oral presentation and the Slides that they provide, taking into account items such as pronunciation, body language or spelling, among others. One of the rubrics is the teacher’s rubric and the other one is for peer-assessment or co-assessment. Both of them are provided.
I can assure you that students from different backgrounds and nationalities really enjoy this project since they can get to explain a festival that they really know well or that they want to discover. It is a great way to know new festivals and promote multiculturalism.
Since by the end of the project they present it to their classmates, students will be able to assess their classmates and it brings also much more attention to the final presentations.
