Slide 7 - Video

Students view 'Little Britain' as an energiser. As students watch the clip, they take notes on what Vicky Pollard's problems are. The clip serves as a further introduction to the theme 'Growing Pains', provides English input of a non normative variety and practices Listening/viewing strategies 'keeping track of the general topic development', as well as 'note taking'. 

After finishing the energiser, students discuss in pairs what the setting of the clip is, how the plot develops, where the climax can be found and which perspective the clip has. 
What are Vicky's issues and what brought her to camp?

Assignment 
Situatie 
Van een Engelse vriend/vriendin bij jou uit de buurt heb je het blad Sugar gekregen. 
Daarin zie je de Sugar/’Fanta’ -prijsvraag staan waarmee je een reis naar Hollywood kunt winnen! Het lijkt je geweldig om een keer naar Hollywood te gaan, want je bent dol op alles wat met films te maken heeft. Beroemde filmsterren ontmoeten lijkt je helemaal superleuk! Als je de trip wint, neem je natuurlijk je Engelse vriend/vriendin mee, want je bent door hem/haar aan deze prijsvraag gekomen. Wel vraag jij je af, of je ook mee kunt doen als je geen inwoner van Groot-Brittannië bent. 
Je besluit meteen een briefje te schrijven aan de redactie van Sugar om je vraag voor te leggen. Misschien kan Sugar een reactie naar jouw e-mailadres sturen omdat het antwoord op de prijsvraag binnen twee weken binnen moet zijn. Het adres van Sugar/‘Fanta’ Company is: 
Sugar/‘Fanta’ Company 
PO Box 2812 
London 
W1A 5LN 
Great Britain
