Discussion Starters: Groundhog Day | Podcast #99
Will the groundhog see its shadow this year? Our NEW Groundhog Day lesson plan introduces students to this unique tradition that began in the Weather Capital of the World. Not all countries rely on a groundhog for weather predictions, though. Find out how people predict winter in other countries, such as Serbia and Portugal. The full printable Discussion Starters lesson contains discussion questions, a reading, comprehension questions, vocabulary review, and a role play activity.
Coming soon to our podcast…Black History Month.
Please introduce your students to our FREE podcasts. These can act as a preview to our Biography, Holiday, Discussion Starter, or Grammar Story lessons. They can also serve as extra listening homework to help your learners develop an understanding of the rhythm of English. Some teachers use our weekly podcast (posted every Wednesday) as a warm up for an online tutoring session.
