You could tell students to choose four programmes for their
evening’s viewing and to complete a chart like the one above.
They then work with several other students in the class and
fi nd the person whose choices are most similar to their own.
More activities
Tell students to imagine that there is a school TV on which
they can watch programmes in English. Students use the TV
schedule to plan the evening’s viewing. Tell them to make
sure there is something for everyone to watch!
Ask students if English-language programmes are shown on
TV in their country. Or are they dubbed into the language of
the country? Which do students prefer?
