CMC 5eme Professional English

Students sit in groups of four. Each group is a team.

They work together but each individual student has a sheet to record their ideas & vocabulary.

And now let's look at the qualities required by each profession

Gameplay

The teacher projects this "randomiser wheel" which will deliver, one after the other, a series of qualities and competencies to be associated with the professions on the sheet.

Modify wheel | Show Wheel in ful screen

The teacher projects the wheel and announces a random quality or competence.

Students in their teams try and match the quality to one of the professions on their grid and they write it in the profession's square.

(1 quality can associated with a maximum of 2 professions and therefore written in a maximum of 2 squares)

Students' sheets start to look like this :

When students have two qualities for one of the professions they encircle the profession.

When a team has encircled 3 professions in a vertical line or 4 professions in a horizontal line they shout 'Bingo' and teacher marks the points on the board.

1 horizontal line : 4 points (for four squares) 1 vertical line : 3 points (for three squares)

They whole class keeps playing until a team fills there grid entirely. If time allows, the teacher can continue play to find out the first, second and third teams to complete their grid.

Professions and qualities complex phrases

This sheet, projected on the whiteboard will help students consolidate the vocabulary abour professions, qualities and skills with complex, justified phrases.

* These phrases are all gender neutral : no 'he' or 'she' is used in order to confirm gender stereotypes

and 'they' replaces the singular subject pronoun as is required of modern, gender neutral discourse in anglo-saxon countries.
