13 Superstitions

This lesson is the second of three lessons that discuss the impact of human activity on the environment and invite learners to rethink about their actions and find ways to save our habitat. I chose to focus on fast fashion, electronics, plastic, and Black Friday. The idea is that our consumption habits affect the environment. After the video, I draw an illustration of online shopping taking the example of Amazon and what it takes to ship an order and/or return it. This opens a class debate and shows how fully or not the learners are worried about and engaged in environmental activism. 

Human Comfort Versus Natural Environment

Thanksgiving Lesson

Buy Nothing Day - A Thanksgiving Text

Annoying Orange parodies the song Friday by Rebecca Black. This accompanies the video Annoying Orange Freaky Fryday. The song is written in the present simple and present continuous tense. Students can provide their own examples of what they do on Fridays. A good idiom to learn is TGIF. (Thank god it's Friday).
