HOW TO USE THE LESSON PLAN
CHAP-
Overview of Unit Format

Each unit of Real Reading consists of two thematically related chapters. Compelling readings in a variety of genres have been carefully written or adapted from authentic sources and feature a principled approach to vocabulary development. Chapters consist of pre-reading and post-reading activities, including a reading skill, a reading goal, comprehension questions, and discussion activities. Reading and vocabulary skill building and vocabulary learning strategies based on Paul Nations research help students become more confident and successful in preparation for academic reading and reading on standardized tests.
Suggested Methods of Instruction

This lesson plan can serve as a generic guide for any unit in the Student Book. Suggested methods for delivering instruction for each section or activity in a unit are presented. Alternative ways to handle each activity are provided under the heading Variations. These options allow instructors to vary the way they treat the same activity from chapter to chapter and in so doing to identify the methods that work best for a specific class or individual students.
Think Before You Read

Each unit begins with a thought-provoking opener that introduces students to the unit theme, elicits vocabulary relevant to the theme, and includes discussion questions to activate students prior knowledge and stimulate interest.
A. and B.
(approximately 10 minutes)
Ask students to silently read the discussion questions. Answer any questions the students have. Then elicit one possible answer for the first discussion question. Give students a few minutes to read the discussion questions. Have students label everything that they see in the pictures. If they do not know a word in English, they should look it up in a translation dictionary or ask the instructor or a classmate. Have students form pairs or small groups to discuss their answers. Tell them they will report at least one of their answers to the class. Instruct them to write any new words they encounter on the New Words pages in the back of the book. After 10 minutes, ask several students to share their answers.
Model Lesson Plan
Variations
Ask students to answer the discussion questions in writing at home. Have them read their partners or group members answers in class and discuss their answers. Assign one discussion question per pair or small group. Have each pair or group discuss the question and report their ideas to the class. Start listing important vocabulary on the board that comes out of the class discussion or your reaction to students responses. Ask about students familiarity or knowledge with the words. Offer other examples of and contexts for the words as necessary. Choose one discussion question and have each student do a one-minute freewrite to expand ideas generated from the discussion. The students writing can be passed around the class or reviewed in small groups to encourage further feedback and discussion. The activity may also serve as a closure to the discussion. After students have discussed the questions, ask them to write for 1 to 3 minutes in answer to the questions. Have students exchange their writing with a partner or group member and compare their ideas.
Prepare to Read
This section previews words and phrases that students will encounter in the reading. Students reflect on what they already know and then answer questions about the topic.
A.
Tell students that they will be learning new vocabulary that they need for the readings in the chapter and reading in general. Explain that learning a word is a gradual, cumulative process, and that this activity is designed to raise their awareness of what it means to know a word. Although some of the words in the list may be familiar to students, that does not necessarily mean that they know the word well enough to be able to use it in their own speech and writing. Conversely, they might be able to pronounce and spell the word perfectly, and yet not really know what it means. Tell them that almost all of the vocabulary words that are targeted in this book are high-frequency words, so they are very useful for English language learners. Tell students they will see these words in general texts like magazines and newspapers, as well as in academic texts like textbooks and journal articles. Have students complete the vocabulary exercise without using a dictionary. Tell them to pay close attention to what they already know about the words, as well as what they need to learn. Have students compare their answers with a partner. Walk around the class to monitor discussions. Listen for students knowledge of the words. Make notes on any particular problems or misunderstandings you notice so that you can focus on them later. Bring the class together. Pronounce all targeted words for students, and have students repeat after you. Refer to the Pronunciation Table at the back of the book as necessary. List the vocabulary on the board. Ask for volunteers from each group to write stress markers and example sentences for the target vocabulary on the board. Then bring the class together and elicit corrections if necessary.
Model Lesson Plan
Variations
Have students complete the exercise for homework and compare answers with a partner. Categorize the vocabulary according to part of speech. Write the headings Noun, Verb, Adjective, and Adverb on the board. Have students copy the headings on paper. In pairs or as a class, categorize the vocabulary. Be aware that some words will fall under more than one heading. For a more active exercise, call on students to write the words on the board by part of speech. With the words on the board, ask students which words have a positive, negative, or neutral connotation, and identify it next to each word (, , n). At home, have students make a word card for each unfamiliar vocabulary word from the exercise, after first demonstrating how they should review their cards. Ask students to write a sentence using two or three of the words they know. Have students share their answers in small groups or as a class. Write some of the examples on the board. Assign one or two words to different students the day before the exercise. Ask them to prepare a short presentation of the words, including part of speech, pronunciation, and meaning. Rotate this activity so all students have a chance to participate as you progress through the book. Divide students into small groups. Assign two or three words per group. Have students look up their words in the dictionary and look at their pronunciation. Refer students to the Pronunciation Table at the back of the book. Have each group pronounce their words and correct as necessary. Have the class repeat the words in chorus. Keep the list of target words on one side of the board. Refer to it when students encounter or use these words in the unit.
B.
Have students work in pairs to complete the exercise. Have students label everything that they see in the pictures. If they do not know a word in English, they should look it up in a translation dictionary or ask the instructor or a classmate. Tell students to list unknown words on the New Words pages in the back of the book. Call on students to share their answers to the questions.
Variations
On the board, write important or useful vocabulary that you hear. When responding to students, incorporate the target vocabulary items from the unit in your responses. Ask follow-up questions that use the target items.
Reading Skill
Each unit contains one or two key reading skills. Write the name of the reading skill on the board. Ask students with which kinds of text they think they can use the skill (e.g., for magazines, newspapers, textbooks). Have them explain their answers. Ask students if the skill is a pre-reading, during reading, and/or post-reading strategy and why.
4 Model Lesson Plan
Ask and answer questions to confirm that students comprehend the skill. For example, you might ask them how previewing is different from predicting, or when they should scan a text rather than skimming it. Recycle previously taught skills in future units to promote greater mastery.
Variations
Assign two students to prepare a short 23 minute lesson that describes what the skill is, when it is used, and why it is helpful. Have students present the lesson and answer questions that the class has. Monitor as necessary. Have students take the class through Exercise C to check answers. Offer examples of using the skill by bringing in other texts or using texts you have found online. Make the texts short, simple, and level-appropriate. Have students keep a Reading Skill log that lists the reading skills from the book in one column, a short definition of the skill in the second column, its occurrence (pre-, during, post-reading) in the third column, and a blank fourth column for the number of times they use the skill. As students read the texts in the book or outside texts, have them keep track of the skills they are using by putting a check mark () every time they use a skill.
C.
Have students complete the exercise. Encourage students to refer to the reading to find the answers. Go over the exercise as a class and answer any questions. Ask students to explain how the skill helped them find the correct answers and why it helps improve their reading comprehension.
Variations
Have students complete the exercise for homework. Have them compare their answers with a partner or group members. Ask several students to report their answers. Have students answer the questions individually and raise their hands when they think they have the correct answers. Circulate through the room and check students answers. Explain any missing answers, and ask students with correct answers to report their answers to the class.
Read
Each unit contains two major readings. Vocabulary is tightly controlled, and target words are recycled from one chapter to the next within a unit and from unit to unit. Preview the reading by looking at the title, subtitles, illustrations, and boldfaced target vocabulary. Have students guess the topic, main idea, and purpose of the reading from their previewing. Tell students to read each reading two or three times. Encourage students not to use a dictionary the first time they read because it interrupts the reading comprehension process. Tell students to focus on main ideas during the first read even if some words are unfamiliar. The second time, have students reread and mark
Model Lesson Plan 5
unfamiliar vocabulary words. On the third reading, let students use a dictionary to look up words they do not know and that seem important to their comprehension of the text. Point out that if they can understand the sentence by merely eliminating the unknown word, then it is probably not necessary to learn that word, at least not for the moment. Encourage students to develop and use annotating as they read. Tell students to underline or highlight main ideas and important details. Also, have them make notes in the margins about things they dont understand or that they find particularly interesting. This will make it easier for them to participate in a class discussion of the reading.
Variations
Have students read the text for homework. Tell students to follow the above system of reading and be prepared to respond to questions about the main ideas and details of the reading. Begin discussion of the reading by writing a question on the board about a main idea of the text. Give students a few minutes to answer the question with a partner with their books closed. Play the audio recording of the reading. Have students read along silently as they listen to the audio. Using the audio recording, play a selected section of the reading. Have students retell the main point of the section in small groups or as a class. Give students 1015 minutes to read the essay or article in class for timed-reading practice. Explain that research has shown that if readers push themselves to read at a faster than comfortable rate, they often have a higher comprehension of the reading. Have students use a large index card or folded white paper to cover up the lines in the reading, moving the card or paper downward on the page as they read. Students can time themselves by recording their start and end times and calculating their reading rate using this formula (the number of words in each reading is provided in the Unit Notes): number of words in reading (total time in seconds) 60 words per minute This will motivate students to increase their reading speed. Do not let them use dictionaries. Have students take turns retelling the main points of a reading as a whole or paragraph by paragraph to a partner. Circulate through the room, assisting students with difficult passages. Especially difficult passages may merit a whole-class discussion. Have students write a one-minute summary of the introduction (or another section) of a reading as a type of pop quiz. Teachers may wish to collect the summaries and grade them, especially with students who are not keeping up with reading assignments. Assign small groups the task of carefully rereading sections of a reading. One group member should be prepared to explain the gist of the section to the entire class, with other group members taking notes on main points, and still others using a dictionary to make word cards on difficult target vocabulary from the passage. Have students complete a graphic organizer based on the ideas in a reading. Helpful organizers include Venn diagrams, KWL charts (what I know, what I want to learn, what I learned ), and timelines. Divide the reading into four or five parts. Assign one group of students for each part. Have each group make a poster that identifies the main idea of the section and lists any important vocabulary with definitions or example sentences. Students can also draw a picture or symbol that represents the main idea of their section. Have each group present their poster to the rest of the class.
6 Model Lesson Plan
Divide students into permanent study groups. Study groups can serve as resources inside and outside the class to discuss reading texts, help each other with difficult passages, and check each others homework. They can also study together before exams.
Vocabulary Check
This section gives students an opportunity to focus on the meaning of the target vocabulary before completing the comprehension activities. Have students complete the exercise for homework. Have students check answers with a partner. Circulate and answer questions. Go over the answers with the class. Write the target vocabulary words on the board. Practice group and then individual drilling of words that are challenging for students to pronounce. Indicate stressed syllables on the board.
Variations
Have students complete the exercise with a partner or small group. Circulate through the room, assisting students with any items they have difficulty with. Ask students to identify grammatical clues in the items. For example, if the blank is preceded by an articlea, an, or thethe item is likely a noun. If the blank is preceded by a subject, the item is likely a verb. Have students notice the grammatical clues in the items as well determine the part of speech for each word. Have students look back at the reading to identify collocations with the boldfaced target vocabulary. Have them write sentences about the reading using three to five collocations. Bring in collocations dictionaries for students to reference in small groups as they write their sentences, or make photocopies of particular entries you want them to focus on. Have students write example sentences on the board. Answer any questions students have.
Read Again / Comprehension Check
(1520 minutes)
The reading goal gives students a purpose for rereading the text before completing the comprehension activities. Engaging and varied exercises help students achieve the reading goal. Target vocabulary is recycled, giving students additional exposure to high-frequency words and expressions. Emphasize to students the importance of second and third readings. Tell them that each time they read, they should have a particular goal in mind. Offer examples of times you have read with different goals and purposes in mind. Ask students for their own examples. Have students look at the Reading Goal for the reading. Ask students how they will achieve the goal. Help them identify what strategies they can use to complete the task, including ones previously learned. Explain that the exercises in the Comprehension Check will help them to achieve the goal. Have students complete the exercises for homework. Have students compare their answers in pairs or small groups. Circulate and check their answers. As you circulate, make note of any items students had difficulty with. Bring the class back together to discuss the difficult items.
Model Lesson Plan 7
Variations
Have students complete the exercises in class. Use the first two exercises as a quiz to check if students have completed the assigned reading. Have students answer the questions within 510 minutes, and then have partners score each others quizzes. Assign individual exercises or parts of exercises to specific pairs or groups. Ask a student in each pair or group to report answers to the class. Bring in outside readings on the topic of the unit readings to give students additional reading practice. Outside readings should be short and easy enough to be read quickly, for example, in the minutes before class begins, or as an end-of-class activity or short quiz. Have students identify main ideas. Have them look for any connections they see between the outside reading and book text. Look for any target vocabulary in the reading to point out to students.
Discuss
(1015 minutes)
Each unit contains two post-reading discussion activities. A variety of activities for smallgroup or pair work encourages students to use vocabulary from the current unit as well as previous units. Have students preview the discussion questions. Answer any questions. Have students answer the questions in small groups. Tell them they will report at least one of their answers to the class. Circulate and take notes on students responses. Call on students to share their answers. Encourage them to use the target vocabulary in their responses. Write the target vocabulary on the board for reference.
Variations
Encourage students to work with different partners for each discussion activity. Have students answer the questions in pairs. Assign one discussion question per pair. Then group two pairs together to share and compare responses as a small group. As students share their responses in groups or with the whole class, ask follow-up questions using the target vocabulary of the chapter. Ask students to answer in complete sentences using the target vocabulary. Put a check mark () next to the words for each instance students use the word in the discussion. After students have discussed the questions, have them write for 13 minutes in answer to one of their questions. Have students exchange their writing with a partner and compare their ideas. Ask students to answer the discussion questions in writing at home. Have them read their partners or group members answers in class and discuss their answers.
Model Lesson Plan
Vocabulary Skill Building
(1015 minutes)
There is one vocabulary skill building exercise per unit. This section offers presentation and practice with common vocabulary skills. Write the name of the vocabulary skill on the board. Have one student read the instructional text aloud. Answer any questions students have about the vocabulary within the instructional text. Elicit the answer to the first item of the exercise as an example. Have students complete the exercise. Circulate to answer questions and confirm that students comprehend the skill. Ask several students to report their answers to the class. Ask students to explain how the vocabulary skill can be useful when reading. Recycle previously taught vocabulary skills in future units to promote greater mastery.
Variations
Have students answer the practice questions in pairs. Ask students to recall the skill while going over the answers together as a class. Have students answer the practice questions for homework. Have them compare their answers with a partner or group members. Ask several students to report their answers. Assign pairs of students to present the skill to the class. Have students use their dictionaries in class to find other examples of the vocabulary skill. Use the targeted words in the unit whenever possible.
Learn the Vocabulary

A., B., and C.
(1520 minutes)
Each unit contains one Learn the Vocabulary section, which challenges students to practice strategies and techniques outlined by Paul Nation that will help them to acquire not only the target vocabulary but also vocabulary beyond the text. Write the name of the vocabulary strategy on the board. Have one or more students read the instructional text aloud. Answer any questions students have about vocabulary within the instructional text. Elicit the answer to the first item of the exercise as an example. Have students complete the exercise. Circulate to answer questions and confirm that students comprehend the skill. Help students notice that they have been building on their vocabulary knowledge throughout the unit. Emphasize the importance of identifying new words and how their knowledge of the words has changed and improved.
Model Lesson Plan
Finish by bringing the class together as a whole. Ask students to keep the skill in mind as they learn vocabulary in future units. Recycle previously taught Learn the Vocabulary strategies in future units to promote greater mastery.
Variations
Have students test each other using the word cards they made. Have students read or show one side of the card and have their partner guess the other side (e.g., a word, a definition, a picture). Have students use their word cards to play review games, such as charades. Divide the class into two or three teams. Have students choose a word from their word card list to act out in front of the class to their team. Have the team guess the word. Give each team a point for a correct guess, marking their totals on the board. Have students work in groups of four or five to write a story. Have each student in the group choose a word from their word cards. Give the groups 1015 minutes to write a story using all the words. If necessary, offer possible topics, such as The Best Day of My Life, A Great Surprise, or An Unlucky Day.
Fluency Practice
Four fluency practice sections address learners extensive reading needs. Learners practice fluency strategies, read passages, check comprehension, and calculate their reading times. Fluency Progress Charts are provided at the back of the book for students to record their reading times and Comprehension Check scores.
Fluency Strategy
Present the fluency strategy. Read through important points or call on a student to read the strategy box aloud. Ask students how the strategy can improve their fluency while reading. Ask and answer questions to confirm that students comprehend the skill.
Variations
Have students read the strategy box for homework. The next day, call on students to explain the skill. Make notes on the board that define the skill, explain its purpose, and identify its importance.
Before You Read
Have students answer any discussion questions in pairs or small groups. Tell each pair or group they will report one of their answers to the class. Elicit responses for each discussion item from the pairs or groups. Have students preview the reading. Emphasize the importance of previewing and reading with a purpose or questions in mind.

Vocabulary Practice
These activities appear at the back of the book and reinforce understanding of the target vocabulary, vocabulary skills, and vocabulary learning strategies. Have students complete the exercises in pairs. Circulate and answer questions, but encourage independent work. Encourage students not to use a dictionary to complete the exercises. When students finish the exercises, allow them to refer to the unit to answer any questions they have about the vocabulary, the skill, or the strategy.
Variations
Have students complete the exercises for homework. Have students compare their answers in pairs or small groups. Use the vocabulary practice exercises as a way to extend or reinforce common vocabulary skills taught in the book, such as roots, prefixes and suffixes, and collocations.
Model Lesson Plan 11
Have students review their word cards. Ask students to add any new information they learned about their words to their cards. Have students test each other using their word cards.
Tests
The reproducible testsavailable in both Microsoft Word and PDF formatsappear online in Test Master. They allow teachers to evaluate students progress and to identify areas where students might have problems developing their reading and vocabulary skills. The tests should be given upon completion of the corresponding units. Answer keys are provided to make marking the tests as straightforward as possible. There is a test for each of the 12 units. Every test begins with a reading that ties in with the unit theme. The reading is followed by three parts: Part 1: Comprehension The Comprehension section tests students understanding of the reading and their ability to apply the reading skill(s) introduced in the unit. Part 2: Vocabulary The Vocabulary section assesses students knowledge of the target vocabulary. Part 3: Vocabulary Skill Building The Vocabulary Skill Building section tests students mastery of the vocabulary skill introduced in the unit.

C. Answers may vary: Judith Rich Harris is a psychologist. She tries to answer the question: (1) what creates our personality? While most psychologists think the answer is our parents, Harris believes (2) our peers influence our personality the most. Harris says we form our personalities (3) at school. We imitate (4) the people we admire. In contrast, other psychologists say we form our personalities at (5) home by imitating our parents. When children rebel, Harris says it is because (6) they want to appear cool to other children. However, other psychologists say children rebel because (7) they are angry with their parents. As an example of her theory, Harris talks about immigrant families. In these families, (8) children act more like their peers than their parents when they grow up. In summary, Harris tries to respond to the same question as other many other psychologists, but she gives a very different answer.
