Assignment A

Text 3 – Elementary

✔ This part of the assignment focuses on stage 5 of an elementary reading lesson.


✔ The students have already completed the vocabulary pre-teaching stage and the reading tasks.
✔ You should plan a 15-minute follow-on stage consisting of two short communicative speaking tasks, which will require the use of
some of the vocabulary in the text for the final stage of the lesson. Please ensure that the fifteen minutes are divided between the two tasks
and that you have considered the time needed to give instructions.

✔ Include any necessary references in the bibliography template. See 'Referencing' document for advice on what is required.
✔ Read 'Advice on Approaching Assignment A' before you begin work on this template.
✔ Class: Elementary (A1) 12 adults (6M, 6F), age range 25-56. Most of the students want to learn English because they feel it will improve
their job prospects. Three are learning for recreational reasons.

21st Century Dad

Bobbie and Moira Fernandez got married 6 years ago when they were 24 years old. Their daughter, Addison, was born 3 years later. Their baby son,
Remy, is 15 months old.
Bobbie worked in a library, and Moira is an engineer. Moira loves her work, so Bobbie left his job. He stays at home with the children. We asked Bobbie
about his day.
“Well, we get up when Remy wakes us up, which is usually at about half past six in the morning. Moira takes a shower and has breakfast while I look
after the children. Moira leaves the house at 7.30. Addison's kindergarten is close to our house. Usually Addison walks, and I carry the baby. When we
are late, I put them in the buggy, or take them on my bike.
After that, I often take Remy to the park by the river. He loves to see the boats and ducks on the river. We sometimes take some food for the ducks. He
likes the swings in the children's playground. I usually meet other parents and babies there, so I can have a chat with them.
On Wednesdays I collect Addison from kindergarten at 12.30. Then we go to the market to buy food. Moira always goes to the supermarket on Saturday
morning. We don't have a car, so we can't do all the shopping on one day.
In the afternoons the children have a nap, and I clean and tidy the house. I cook the evening meal every day except Friday. On Fridays, my wife normally
cooks, but occasionally we go out for a meal or get a takeaway.

I enjoy being a stay-at-home dad. It's hard work, and sometimes it's boring. But it's great fun to watch your children grow up. We are very happy.”
