    Impact Topics!-30 Exciting Topics to Talk About in English (Student Book and Audio CD)

    Impact topics contains thirty stimulating, discussion generating topic.

    There are many ways that you can use the material in this book to help your students improve their listening, speaking and reading abilities in English. One way is like this:

    1. Begin by looking over the Contents. There are five categories: People; Men and Women; Relationships; Society; and Life. Begin with any category and choose any topic that is of interest to your students. You do not have to work from the beginning to the end of the book.
    2. After you have selected a topic, introduce the activity GETTING READY. Ask the students questions about the photographs. Then go over the questions, and have the students answer them individually, with a partner, or in a small group. This entire activity should take about five minutes,
    3. Next, read the students the brief introduction to the story in UNDERSTANDING THE TOPIC. This question helps students focus on the general idea of the story. Make sure that students know that they do not have to understand all of the ideas or details or all of the words.
    4. Then have the students listen to the story. They can listen the first time with their books closed. When they have finished listening, have them check their answer to the question.
    5. Students then fill in the blanks in the story with words from the box. They can do this while reading or while listening to the СD and following along the answers are in the appendix.
    You might want to go over any difficult words that you think students need in order to understand the story. You may want to have the students listen to the story again, this extra listening can help the students understand the rhythm, stress and intonation of naturally spoken English, It also helps them with the pronunciation of words they do not know.
    6. Now have the students do the activity WHAT DO YOU THINK? The purpose of this activity is to get the students to think about different opinions or ideas on the topic. Have the students listen to the opinions of the four people and decide whether they agree or disagree with each person’s idea. There are three different ways this activity is done:
    * Some statements have a missing word. The students fill in the missing word as they listen.
    * Sometimes students draw a line from the speaker's photograph to what that speaker says.
    * Sometimes the speaker's opinion is not written. Students listen and circle their agreement or disagreement.
    The answers to identifying the speakers and their opinions are in the appendix.
    7. The next activity SHARING YOUR OPINIONS is an activity that you direct. It provides a bridge between the previous activity-WHAT DO YOU THINK?-and the next activity, EXPRESSING YOUR IDEAS, SHARING YOUR OPINIONS allows the students to hear the responses of their classmates to the previous activity. This activity can be done in a number of different ways:
    * The teacher can ask individual students for their reactions. The teacher can put the four names (Amy, etc.) on the board. Point to one of the names, and ask an individual student about the speaker’s opinion.
    The teacher can ask who agreed or disagreed with a speaker.
    * The teacher can do an opinion poll and ask for reaction from the class for each of the four characters.
    The variations are illustrated in the appendix. They allow the teacher to model the language so students can do the next activity more easily. If you think your students do not need this activity, you can skip it and go on to EXPRESSING YOUR IDEAS.
    8. The activity EXPRESSING YOUR IDEAS helps students discuss or exchange their ideas about the topic with their classmates. Therefore, it is best done in pairs or in small groups. There are no right or wrong answers to this activity. Depending on the chapter and your students, you could do EXPRESSING YOUR IDEAS first and then SHARING YOUR OPINIONS. Use these activities flexibly to suit your students or your reaching style.
    9. THINKING ABOUT THE TOPIC is designed to help the students use their ideas and knowledge of the topic to examine the topic. Students are usually asked to first work individually, then in pairs or small groups. Again, there are no right or wrong answers to this activity.
    10. If a pair or group of students finish the activity early, they can answer the Bonus question. This question is meant to expand on the topic.
    These 10 steps can take from 45 to 75 minutes, depending on the English ability of the students and how long you choose to spend on each activity.

    Finally, there are many other activities that you can do as follow-up work once the students have finished a topic. You might want to give the students a written assignment on the topic, or ask them to find some articles in English on the topic, or create a short debate or role play on the topic.
