In today's history lesson in #ESO4 we have been describing different pictures and analysing the poem "The Chimney Sweeper: When my mother died I was very young", by William Blake in order to have a better understanding of child labour during the Industrialisation process.
So we have been practising speaking skills all throughout the lesson.
Lastly, we finished the lesson by reading a short text on the topic and in addition, with a listening task and a quiz about it!
In my view, it was a really productive lesson. Anyway, for reassurance, I will have to ask my students for feedback! (SCROLL DOWN to have a look at the students' feedback form)
Here is a reading of the poem, if you wish to listen to it.
Below you can have a look at the mini-quiz on the listening task.
