Procedures

1. Warming up

⑴ Warming up by describing yourselves

Hello, boys and girls. This morning we’ll take up Unit 5 in which we’ll learn to describe people. But first what kind of person are you? (shy, outgoing, fun, mean, immature, dramatic or nice, kind, honest, brave, loyal, happy, wise, smart, friendly, warm, cheerful, popular, generous, hard-working, diligent, weak, stupid, lazy, dishonest, mean, tense, cold, unkind, miserable, dull, strong-minded, determined)

⑵ Warming up by describing a great person

We take Unit 5 today which is about a modern hero, a great person named Nelson Mandela. But what is a great person like? (A great person should be determined, hard-working, unselfish, and generous. He should follow his ideas and never lose heart when he is in trouble. He usually gives up something to achieve his goals. He should be willing to do public service work without pay, be active in social activities, gets on well with others, and help others, etc.)

Boys and girls, in Unit 5 we will talk about Nelson Mandela, a great leader who fights for the rights of the black people. When talking about a person, what adjectives can you think of to describe his or her qualities? What are the qualities you should find in a great person?

⑶ Warming up by getting to know Mandela

Before we go to read Elias’s story let’s first try to know about Nelson Mandela by reading the following short passage.

Nelson Mandela is one of the great moral and political leaders of our time: an international hero whose lifelong dedication to the fight against racial oppression in South Africa won him the Nobel Peace Prize and the presidency of his country. Since his triumphant release in 1990 from more than a quarter-century of imprisonment, Mandela has been at the center of the most compelling and inspiring political drama in the world. As president of the African National Congress and head of South Africa's antiapartheid movement, he was instrumental in moving the nation toward multiracial government and majority rule. He is revered everywhere as a vital force in the fight for human rights and racial equality.



2. Pre-reading by looking and saying

Now, look at the six people in the pre-reading part. Can you recognize them? Do you think they are important people?

You may say yes, because they have done something really important to benefit the world or a country. But do you think all of them are great people?

Patterns to be used



I think/ I don’t think…; in my opinion; I’m afraid…; I agree/ don’t agree…; I

prefer…; What’s your opinion? Why do you think so? What do you think of…?



A sample dialogue



A: Do you think William Tidal is a great person?

B: Yes. I think so. He had a strong belief that all people should be able to read the Bible for themselves. So he translated and printed it into English although he was not allowed to do so. And later he died for his work.

A: Yes. I agree. William Tyndale went through a lot of struggles and difficulties and even sacrificed his life to realize his dream. He is a great person that everybody who picks up the Bible must think of. Now, let’s come to Norman Bethune. What do you think of him?

B: …

5. Discussing questions in groups of four

How did the white people stop the black people from being treated fairly?

Why did Elias support Mandela?

Why did he support violence when he did not agree with it?

Suggested answers:

Through unfair laws.

There are three reasons for this.

Firstly, Mandela once helped him and he thought Mandela kind and generous. Secondly, he agreed with Mandela’s political ideas. For example, he agreed with his explanation of how the black people were not treated fairly. He also sided with him on his view of peaceful fighting.

Thirdly, he knew that what Mandela fought for was to make black and white people equal.

Because their attempt to attack the law in a peaceful way failed. They had to answer violence with violence.



6. Reading to make a diagram

Let’s go over the text once more to make a diagram of it with key words of each paragraph placed in the box.

7. Retelling the text in your own words

With the help of the diagram try to retell the story in your own words.

A retold passage of the text

Elias is a black worker in South Africa. His family was so poor that he had to drop out of school at the age of eight. Later on, he was able to work as a gold miner in Johannesburg. But as he hadn’t got a passbook which was required if one wanted to live in Johannesburg. He was worried about being dismissed. However, he was lucky enough to get some help from Nelson Mandela and managed to get the correct papers. After that, he began to know more Mandela and his political ideas. He agreed with Mandela’s views on the unfair laws against the black people and his idea about peaceful fighting. He also knew that all Mandela wanted to do was to fight for equal rights for the black people. So he supported him heart and soul.
