Teaching English for an Orphans' Home

My daughter and I are starting a new project. We are conducting a weekly lesson for the orphans' home. I know that a lesson a week is not enough to build up the skill, but that is all the time that I have. I am working on the rest of the weekdays.

I am planning to have a least two different approach per lesson. One is passive and the other is active.

a. Passive - the students listen, the instructor teaches.
- example is - story telling, listening to video or tapes.

b. Active lesson - students perform some activities and learn while doing it.
- example, prepare a presentation and speak in public.

Tomorrow, I am using this video.

 

How I will using the video.

1. I will open it with a short briefing on the video and what they can do to make learning more effective.

2. They will listen to it for the first time, and try to understand it.

3. Then I will do a short pulse of the video and they are to the words and add it to their vocabulary.

These are some of the vocab..both words and phrase.

the phrases are..
