students to talk about Wangari T
Maathai’s anecdote.

questions and give examples of
how it relates to them.

Activity 10

• Encourage students to
think about some personal
experiences they want to share
in this practice.
• Remind students of the
importance of building
a respectful and trusting
environment, so that they feel
confident speaking in English.
• Go through the example with
students and tell them it is about
Nadia Comaneci, the teenage
gymnast who got a perfect
score during the Montreal
Olympics in 1976.
• If you have access to
a computer, play the
recommended video so
students can watch Nadia
Comaneci tell her anecdote.
• IT box icons appear frequently in the practices with suggested websites. We recommend you visit the
websites before the session to check whether the contents proposed are useful for your class planning
and to anticipate questions from your students. You may also want to let them explore the websites freely.
These suggestions are not essential for developing the social practice of language, since we know Internet
connection may not be available at all locations.
