Sc/L1.4a Present information and ideas in a logical sequence

  • Recognise that ideas and information can be sequenced in different ways, e.g. chronologically or with the most important idea first, and that conventions can vary across cultures
  • Accurately use discourse markers and verb forms, such as past perfect, to indicate sequence
  • Use appropriate register and genre conventions regarding organisation when giving a formal presentation E.g. I'm going to outline some of the changes we're proposing, then go on to examine some of the benefits of these changes. After that, I'll be happy to take any questions you may have.

The Man Living in the Last House Standing

This lesson is based around the story of Birkenhead resident Charlie Wright, who famously refused to leave his house when the local council decided to demolish the estate around it. Students have the opportunity to discuss themes of community, identity and change. Students watch a short documentary about Charlie from the BBC archives and answer comprehension questions. Charlie's story provides a context for a role play task whereby learners have to decide how best to regenerate Charlie's lost neighbourhood.
