The Mystery of Mrs. Shapiro

We are going to solve a mystery. Today we are doing another retelling activity. We are going to solve a mystery. Each of you is going to be given a clue that you will retell to other members of your class.

When you are finished listening to all of the clues you are going to work together in groups and construct a theory answering the question: What happened to Mrs. Shapiro?

This is an example of a task-based language activity This is an example of a task-based language activity. What does that mean?

Task-based learning is where the learner is required to use language to accomplish tasks instead of explicitly studying the language.

The student learns to communicate in the second language through interaction in the target language.

This is also an open-ended activity. What does that mean?

It means there are no right or wrong answers It means there are no right or wrong answers. The process of learning to communicate is more important than reaching an answer.

Open-ended activities help foster creativity and allow students to express themselves without fear of being correct or incorrect. Thus open-ended activities can be intrinsically motivating.

Activity Breakdown Step 1: Memorize your clues. (I am going to take them away) Step 2: Talk to other people. Step 3: Form group and come up with a theory to explain the clues. Step4: Have one member of your group present your groups theory.
