****ACTIVITY 3****

Crossfire

/Students debate on all statements (photos). They have to give at least two sentences

 to explain their ideas./

(U "Crossfire" biramo dva učenika koja izlaze pred tablu i iznose svoja (ista ili različita)

mišljenja na dvije ponuđene rečenice i jedan opis na ponuđenu sliku na način kako su je

oni vidjeli i razumjeli (doživjeli) s tim da svako mišljenje i opis moraju sadržavati minimalno

dvije rečenice, više može a manje od dvije ne. Najbolje bi bilo da učenici imaju različite

stavove i viđenja slike, ali to zavisi od njihovih razmišljanja, jer različiti stavovi

kreiraju debatu što je i jedan od ciljeva ove aktivnost.)
