The language of discussions - The media
Students use the language they learn from the chart in exercise 1 (key on page 2)to talk about the media in small groups. If you have time a good idea would be to have them work A+B+C for exercise 2 and then change groups = A+A+A, B+B+B, C+C+C to report the decisions of their original groups to the new group.
