✔ You should show what you would do for the vocabulary pre-teaching stage of the lesson.
✔ Include any references necessary in the bibliography template. See 'Referencing' document for advice on what is required.
✔ Read 'Advice on Approaching this Assignment' before you begin work on this template.
✔ Class: Lower intermediate (B1), 13 young learners, age range 12-14.
These students attend EFL classes because their parents are keen for them to have extra English lessons in addition to what their state
schools provide. Many of them resent having to come to language school, but you have found you can engage them if you make the
lessons fun and interesting.

Fortnite – a pleasure or a problem?
Fortnite is an online video game made by a company called Epic Games. Players can fight enemies, collect materials and items, and
make buildings. The game has three different versions, known as 'modes'. The most popular mode is called ‘Battle Royale’. In a
battle royale, players start with no items, and collect weapons and other equipment as they play. Players try to remove other
players and survive until the end of the game. A Battle Royale begins with up to one hundred players. The last player left alive is
the winner.

Fortnite is extremely popular. It came out in 2017 and now has hundreds of millions of players. And Epic Games has made hundreds
of millions of dollars. Celebrities, such as the rapper, Drake, play the Battle Royale mode. Other people have become celebrities
because they play the game. Fortnite is one of many video games which is played competitively as an ‘esport.’ In summer 2019,
there was a lot of attention in the British media when the 15-year-old schoolboy, Jaden Ashman, won the second prize in the first
Fortnite World Cup. Jaden and his 21-year-old Dutch game partner, Dave Jong, shared a prize of 2.25 million US dollars. Jaden's
mother said she always tried to stop him wasting his time on the game.

,The company sells a lot of game-related products, such as branded clothes and action figures. Players can buy additional features
for the game with Fortnite’s own currency; ‘V-bucks,’ which they can earn as they play the game. A popular additional feature is
silly dances for the characters. Many people copy the game’s dances in real life. There are numerous videos of people doing these
dances on YouTube and other websites.

There are concerns about Fortnite. Parents and teachers worry about how much time children spend playing the game when they
should be doing schoolwork. Some believe that it is addictive. Items in the game are bought with V-bucks, but V-bucks can be
bought with real money. There are many reports of children spending their parents’ money on the game without permission.
Although the game is colourful and has a light-hearted style, some adults feel that it is too violent for children. After all, the Battle
Royale mode involves killing other player’s characters with guns and other weapons.



Lesson Aims:
✔ To extend and practise productive use of vocabulary for talking about computer games and associated topics.
✔ To further develop reading skills through short reading activities on skimming and intensive reading.
