1 EDMONTON Weekly Newscasts Lesson Plan APRIL 11, 2016 Newscasts are current news stories read at a slower pace than you might hear on the radio. These are prepared by CBC news editor Don Bell. Objectives: To develop listening skills To increase vocabulary To increase awareness of grammatical structures and functional language To increase knowledge of current events To provide a user- friendly, self- study tool for learners, as well as an ESL classroom resource for instructors Contents: Three news stories are featured in each weekly lesson plan. Each lesson contains vocabulary and listening comprehension activities. At the end of each lesson, you will find a complete transcript and an answer key. This lesson plan is aimed towards learners at an intermediate language level (i.e. Canadian Language Benchmarks 4-5 or equivalent). Learning English with CBC is a joint project with CBC Calgary, CBC Edmonton, and the Government of Alberta. Lesson Plans prepared by Deidre Lake, Communication4Integration Inc.

LEARNING ENGLISH WITH CBC cbc.ca/learning- english 2
3 VOCABULARY ACTIVITY 1 Match the words used in the story with the correct synonym. Look at how the word is used in the story if needed. The first one is done for you. ANSWER WORD/EXPRESSION SYNONYM H 1. struggle A. work clothes 2. risk B. chance 3. jail time C. intruder 4. mud- caked D. container for unclaimed items 5. overalls E. stacks 6. piles F. dry off 7. pricey G. break- in 8. bandit H. have difficulty 9. wipe down I. strengthened 10. uninvited J. trouble 11. lost and found bin K. dirty 12. cooperative L. acknowledge 13. intrusion M. expensive 14. beefed up N. time behind bars 15. hassle O. unwanted 16. give credit P. easy- going Most people struggle to exercise but one Edmonton man was willing to risk jail time to spend a night alone inside a gym. Cheryl Schneider, the owner of No More Excuses Fitness, walked into her studio on Monday morning and found evidence of an intruder. The intruder had left his mud- caked construction boots outside the front door along with his folded overalls. The intruder moved some equipment around and placed other things in neat piles but left pricey equipment and office computers untouched. After his workout, the bandit used one of the gym's mint- scented towels to wipe down and helped himself to a chicken wrap from Tim Hortons. When Schneider was showing the police around, they came across the uninvited guest behind a door. He was wearing ladies gym clothes that he had found in the lost and found bin. The intruder was calm and cooperative as police handcuffed him and escorted him through the gym. Before leaving, he wiped his feet on the mat so he wouldn't dirty the studio floor. Since the intrusion, Schneider beefed up security at the gym by replacing the locks and adding deadbolts to all the new doors. Despite the hassle, Schneider says she has to give the intruder some credit for good manners, and a determination to get fit. LEARNING ENGLISH WITH CBC cbc.ca/learning- english 3

8 READING ACTIVITY 1 Read at the script below. The leak of millions of records on offshore accounts belonging to the rich and famous claimed its first high- profile political casualty Tuesday as Iceland's Prime Minister stepped aside amid outrage over revelations he had used a shell company to shelter large sums of money. The leaked records have been dubbed the Panama Papers. China and Russia, took the opposite approach, suppressing the news and rejecting any allegations of misconduct by government officials named in the leak of more than 11 million financial documents from a Panamanian law firm. Officials in Ukraine, Argentina, and other countries are also facing questions about dubious offshore tax- avoidance schemes. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the international community has to work together to make global finance more transparent to prevent the sort of inequality highlighted by the Panama Papers scandal. Trudeau says otherwise, rich investors will simply "hop" around to favourable jurisdictions where they can avoid paying tax. Now go back to the vocabulary activity and use the script to recheck your answers before looking at the answer key. LISTENING ACTIVITY 1 (Audio clip 3:25) Listen to the newscast for a final time and follow along using the script above. CONCLUSION What rich and famous people have been named in the Panama Papers scandal? Do you think it is wrong to avoid paying taxes? Why or why not?
