What does it take to join the club?
Do schools in your country have fraternity or sorority clubs? Do athletic teams welcome members in a cruel or unusual way? Is hazing an acceptable form of orientation? The full Discussion Starters lesson contains warm up questions, pre-reading vocabulary, a short reading, vocabulary review activities, comprehension questions and discussion questions. We hope a discussion on hazing isn’t too hot for your English learners. Some of them may have stories to share about being victims. Others may think twice about being cruel to new members in a club. Preview all of ESL-Library’s current and upcoming Discussion Starters here.
Coming soon…Soul Mates.
