ABSTRACT
Clear introduction to the prevalence of drink in advertisements. Good pace to the positive, demanding, challenging teaching, with a whole class focus to direct attention to a variety of synonyms for ‘sober’. Good short-term demands on vocabulary, with quickfire Q and A and pressure on response times, prompting energetic mental vitality. No room for passengers here, everyone kept up to scratch. Pace excellent, quickening as the lesson developed. Sharp focus on alcohol as part of the culture of youth, using effective literary references. Managed pupil group discussion on legal implications very sensitively and succeeded in engaging all. No time for summing up, however.
