Analyse the information in the class summary. What are your learners’ strengths and weaknesses?
(max. 100 words)
The class summary shows the class overall strength to be reading where most of the students have scored a bang of 7.0. According to
the information provided in the class summary their listening and speaking skills are all overaged below a band 6 with writing being
slightly higher with an average band score of 5.75. The class summary shows clearly that the students are weak in their reading and
listening skills, it also clearly shows that they have established good reading skills therefore making reading their strength.
Which two skills have you chosen to teach in this lesson? Why? (minimum 150 words)
After scanning the class summary, I have chosen to teach or build on the students listening and speaking skills for this particular lesson
because they are more important skills to enhance because the IELTS final grade is weighted on a combination of all four skills band
scored and in the IELTS exam the two skills go hand-in-hand. These two skills are also vital for good communication and making
decisions in a daily, social and professional sense. Having a conversation without being goof in one skill in a real life sense would result
in bad and misunderstood communication. That is why I thought that it would be important to build and strengthen these two skills
that they are weaker on in the given summary.

Which lesson topic have you chosen? Why? (minimum 100 words)
I have decided to go with the topic ‘health and fitness’ rather than the others because I believe that it's a more popular and relatable
topic that all the students might already be familiar with. I also thought that it was a topic that all the students could adapt with their
motivations as the students have different motivations one of them being work, no one besides Anna has specified what type of job
they are working towards therefore would make the topic hard for every student to pay attention to. I believe that with this topic
everyone should have some interest or knowledge on the topic. Health is an issue everyone will have to face at some point, so equipping
students with the correct vocabulary might allow them to explain their health issue better to a healthcare professionals or in Ana's
case, who wants to be a nurse, will equip her with the functional health knowledge she needs in the future.
