This lesson focuses on talking about gentrification and starts with a warm-up in which students brainstorm what ‘community’ means and evaluate whether its meaning has changed in their lifetime. Following that, they discuss questions about community and neighbourhood dynamics and share their perspectives. Then, students prepare to watch a short video about gentrification. They read a piece of information about a protest and brainstorm what the issue was. After that, students watch the first part of the video to check their ideas. Then, they watch the second part of the video and discuss what is mentioned about some specific points (foreign investment, ghost towns and loss of community).
