EXAMPLE: Students are expected to say that this story deals with brotherhood, that is to say the attitudes and behaviour that a brother has towards another brother or to a sister. In this case it is his sister. The boy, Michael takes his sister, Liz, to the mall on his first ride with his car license. Even though he seems to be a caring brother, he is afraid his friends will see him with his sister who is a young teenage girl.

Teacher will say: Go to page 6, what concept of those written on the board, can you associate the events on page 6 with?
Teacher will have written three concepts on the board.

Students will speak for (max)
(1) 10 minutes (teachers will assess how relevant time is here- that is to say if student can deal with question successfully for 5 minutes that will be enough). The students will be asked one question and then they are supposed
(2) To carry on associating and describing scenes from the story. Students should have (3) vocabulary to describe scenes. For example page 5: father is painting outside/external wall, he is focused on his task, whistling as he works. Kid/child wonders what her dad is doing but doesn’t associate paint with wet paint, and spoils T-shirt and wall. Her mother doesn’t get to her on time.
(4)Use of language should be appropriate and accurate, specially tenses (half points for few mistakes –one wrong tense “HE GOES>>>HE WENT”, or tense shift, wrong number “THERE IS TWO PEOPLE” or wrong his, her, he, she after names.
(5)Students have to be fluent enough to be understood.
(6)We expect a pronunciation that can be understood, one that doesn’t interfere with communication.
(7)Connected with Nº2 above, students must show knowledge of what the whole story is about. (NOTE: students must be aware they have to study 20 pages and be able to answer about any of the story lines. That is to say they cannot not know who the characters are, and what their personalities are like)

The above first 6 items will count as 10 points for the oral FINAL GRADE, following this scheme
