Model Lesson: Exploring Culture and Identity

Our culture and our identity are important to all of us. Exploring and understanding culture and identity can promote building peaceful and inclusive societies. What big ideas to explore in an English language learning lesson! With Pathways, Third Edition, we can think critically about these concepts through listening and speaking activities while also developing skills such as note-taking and using adjective clauses. Join us for this model lesson for English teachers to see how we can tackle these diverse aspects of the Pathways program in an engaging, scaffolded way.
