women look for in a partner and What men look for in a partner. At the beginning
these ideas are expressed in isolated words. Some words correspond to vocabulary
the students already know Ex: Intelligence, Love, etc. Also some students are
expected
to ask the teacher how to say some words in English and he will provide the
corresponding terms.
3. The teacher will ask students to read the snapshot. When they finish, he will answer
some vocabulary questions they may have in order to clarify terms.
a. The teacher will elicit some comments on any cultural differences between the
information in the snapshot and the information given by the students. He will
provide the appropriate structures for the students to express an opinion or point
of
view about something. Ex: I think, To my mind, In my opinion, etc. The teacher will
ask this question:
-Do you think that there are some cultural differences between what people
look
for a partner here and what people look for a partner in North America?
Thus, the students will identify common and different elements in the two
contexts.
