ALP - INTERMEDIATE ELEVEN

Dear Intermediate Eleven students:

You can choose from the following tasks in order to prepare your ALP:

1) Do research about “newly created jobs in the fashion industry” and present your findings in an oral presentation.

2) Do research and talk about people who made their way in the fashion industry (surgeons, designers, stylists, etc).

3) Find information about cosmetic procedures (risks, cost, popularity, etc) and show pictures of people who had those cosmetic procedures done.

4) Show examples of celebrities how have and don’t have a sense of style. Support your opinion. Pretend you are part of the TV show “Fashion Police”.

5) Find information about “Hypnotism” and give an oral presentation about it in class.
Target structures:

- Active and passive sentences.
- Expressions for expanding on a topic.
- Expressions for comparing and contrasting information.
- Phrasal verbs.

You should do research about the topic of your choice. You may consult the internet or books. After learning about your topic you should put all important information in a well-organized presentation that will follow the INTRODUCTION - BODY - CONCLUSION format. Your speech should be research-based and it should also contain opinion-generated ideas. You will use your own words for your presentation. Repeating like a parrot what's on the net won't lead you to getting 3 points. My “orientation page” will help you organize your material. You should show pictures to illustrate your speech. It could be done with pictures sticked to cardboard or you can make a PowerPoint presentation and upload it to our system through the ICPNA web site. Feel free to ask questions about the ALP in class.
