A brief overview of Lesson 6.
- Useful vocabulary
[cancel (or: call-out) culture; it refers to the mass withdrawal
of support from public figures or celebrities who have done things that aren't
socially accepted today. This practice of 'canceling' or mass shaming often
occurs on social media platforms.]
- Unit 8: Task 5: Discussion about 2-3 quotes in class.
Raising the question of societies and how 'cultures' can direct people's
mind, so they become accepted by one another, function as one
group and understand each other.
- Culture & Subculture - what they are.
- Unit 7: quotes: reading and discussion
- Reference to 'Lion' (film about an Indian boy of 5 years of age and how
he was lost by entering a train).
- Reference to 'The Journey' (film by Maria Iliou) about Greek immigrants
to the USA (1880s - 1980s).
HOMEWORK.
- Try to find 'Lion' (the film) and write what its plot is as well as the main
characters. Beginning-middle-end.
Alternatively:
- Write a paragraph (or more) commenting on Unit 7: any one of the quotes
in the Warm-up exercise
OR
Unit 8: any one of the questions/statements of Task 5.
N.B. It is possible that next week we might watch one film.
