Learning language is also learning culture. So every chapter in the textbook contains culture corner. However, its portion is too small among the entire curriculum. So, I searched some websites about British Culture and I discovered some sites. I chose two of them. I also selected four themes of the culture section of the site. However, the themes I’ve selected are just examples. Therefore, teacher can use different topics in the ‘others’ websites.
How can we use these websites? Extensive Reading (ER) should not be a compulsory thing. ER should be enjoyable. Culture is an interesting topic to read. It would motivate students to read these sites. Let students read these texts freely. After reading the texts, teacher asks some questions, which should be prepared before, to students to do a discussion. Example discussion topics are given in ‘superstition’ section.
Clothes section and Christmas section provides automatic dictionary. However, it is difficult to middle school 3 students. So teacher may have to help students.
