Suing the state

The lesson starts with a warm-up activity. Students try to come up with collocations with the words ‘trial’ and ‘lawsuit’. Then, they think about a piece of news they’ve recently heard related to the collocations. After that, students move on to video activities. First, they look at some words and phrases and guess what the video is about. Then, students watch the first part of the video, check their ideas and make notes about a lawsuit. Students also watch the second part of the video and choose the best words to summarise the main points. After watching the video, students read the comments about it and agree or disagree with them. Students also read and discuss a text about strategic litigation. Both the video and the text contain legal vocabulary that students work more on in the second part of the lesson.
