The Death Penalty – High Intermediate
Which countries still use the death penalty? What is life like for prisoners on death row? Have your students heard of Troy Davis? This podcast offers an introduction to capital punishment, including the meaning behind the word itself. Other words such as “lethal injection”, “autopsy”, “treason”, and “solitary confinement” are introduced in context. This NEW lesson plan on the Death Penalty includes a reading, vocabulary practice, comprehension questions, and debate topics. Let your high level English learners put their debate skills to the test. Preview all of ESL-Library’s Mini Debate Lessons here.
