1 The Use of Vocabulary

This activity aims to help students to recall the vocabulary they have learned and use them for concrete
purposes, such as for making suggestions. It also helps them to be aware of the pronunciation of the
words they have learned.

Materials and Preparation

Photocopy the worksheets on pages 57 and 58 for each group of four and cut up the cards.

Procedure
1 Put the class into an even number of groups with four students and give each group a set of cards,
both the words worksheet and meanings worksheet.
2 Ask them to shuffle the words and their meanings very well. Tell them that all the students in the
group will work collaboratively to match the words to their meanings. When they have finished the
activity, check the correct answers with the class.
3 Then, have students study the pronunciation of each word and highlight the stress patterns of the
words discussing with the group members. When they have a consensus on the exact place of the
stress, they should define it on the word.
4 Ask students to listen to the pronunciation of the words carefully to check if they have mistakes or
not. The group that has the least mistakes is the winner.
5 After they have covered the meaning and pronunciation of the words, ask them to use each word in
a sentence to make suggestions for living together in harmony with nature, people, and animals. Let
them share their sentences with the class.

2 Word Search Puzzle

The activity aims to revise the vocabulary that students have learned previously and help them
distinguish the positive and negative expressions about human rights.

Materials and Preparation

Print out and photocopy the worksheet on page 59 for each student.

Procedure
1 Hand out the worksheet to students and ask them to find and circle the words related to human
rights in the Word Search Puzzle.
2 Check the answers with the class.
3 Then, encourage students to work in pairs to sort the words they have found in the puzzle into the
correct category based on their meaning whether they are positive or negative.
4 Finally, tell students that they will work in pairs to create a poster highlighting the benefits of human
rights using the words on their lists.
