• In the first phase, the teacher chooses a one-to three-minute clip from the chosen drama and prepares a transcription. The teacher then chooses vocabulary he or she thinks will be difficult and provides a word list and definitions. With the difficult words, the teacher prepares a vocabulary activity, a cloze activity, or a matching activity. The teacher writes comprehension questions on all the main points in the clip and discussion questions on the issues raised in the clip. Students do the vocabulary exercise and read the comprehension questions; they then watch the clip and answer the questions. Then they check with their partners to confirm understanding. The teacher confirms the correct answers and responds to any new student questions. The teacher finally introduces the discussion questions and the students discuss the issues they raise.
