Future Dreams

About this lesson

This unit, titled 'Future Dreams', focuses on helping students talk and write about their future career aspirations and plans. It uses themes like choosing a profession, personal goals, and teamwork to build language skills. Students read an advertisement for a career workshop, an interview with a scientist, a personal narrative about becoming a doctor, and a story about a team building a water-saving machine. They practice listening to conversations about choices and future plans, and engage in speaking activities where they discuss their own dream jobs and how to achieve them. By the end of the unit, students should be able to identify main ideas and supporting details in texts about future plans, use vocabulary related to jobs and planning, and write a short review about their dream job using 'going to' for future intentions.
