Helping Others

About this lesson

This unit, titled 'Helping Others,' focuses on themes of kindness, volunteering, and community service. It includes reading passages about a student named Amal who organizes visits to elderly neighbors, and a general text about simple daily acts of kindness. There are also listening exercises based on short interviews with volunteers (Omar, Lina, Mona) about their work, and a story excerpt from 'The Golden Goose' about a character named Dummling who leads a procession. Speaking activities involve pair discussions and role-plays about personal experiences with kindness and volunteer ideas. Writing tasks guide students to compose short paragraphs about their own volunteer plans or acts of kindness, using target vocabulary and the future simple tense. By the end of the unit, students should be able to identify main ideas and details in charity/volunteer texts, listen for specific details in interviews, role-play stories, use the future simple tense correctly, and write clear sentences about volunteer activities.
