Preface
In July 2011, PH International in partnership with the Center for Intercultural Education and Development (CIED) of Georgetown University and the English Teachers Association of Georgia (ETAG), began implementation of the English Language through Civic Education (ELCE) program, with funding from the Public Affairs Section of the U.S. Embassy in Tbilisi, Georgia. The program was implemented in seven regions of Georgia: Kakheti, Shida Kartli, Kvemo Kartli, Imereti, Guria, Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti and Ajara. The goal of ELCE was to improve English language teaching and learning in Georgian schools, in order to support Euro-Atlantic integration, promote Western democratic values, improve students capacity for higher and continuing education and increase marketable job skills among Georgian youth. The direct beneficiaries of this program were Georgian teachers of English for grades 1 through 12 and the students they taught. The PH International Team had developed a program that achieved the goal through a focus on four key results: Result 1: New supplementary materials have been introduced for English language teaching that include civic education, American studies, and other western concepts and information and that complement the national curriculum. `` Working from an analysis of the national curriculum goals, approved textbooks, past experience, and the purpose of the ELCE program, the PH International Team introduced, tested, and formulated recommendations for a set of standard supplementary materials to be included as part of the model(s) promoted to the broader educational community. Result 2: English language teachers have developed enhanced skills and improved classroom instruction for English language acquisition and civic education through the English language. `` This includes more learner-centered instruction, effective team teaching, the integration of civics into the English program and promotion of applied language and civics knowledge and skills. Seven American English Language Teacher Trainers (ELTTs) served the regions of Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, Imereti, Adjara, Shida Kartli, Kakheti, Kvemo Kartli and Guria. These ELTTs worked directly with teachers in workshop and in-class settings to train them in modern, student centered teaching techniques along with providing them personalized oral and written feedback following the classroom observations conducted after each of the 10 training workshops.

Result 3: Expanded availability and use of multi-media equipment in the classroom. `` PH International procured equipment for all ELCE program participant schools and trained teachers in the use of equipment that enriches the learning approaches being introduced through the program. Result 4: New practices and models of English language instruction that include civic education and American studies were introduced, tested and promoted to the broader Georgian educational system. `` The focus was on developing a model or models that is/are effective regardless of the school setting, be it urban or rural, Georgian or minority, large or small. Over the duration of the program, ELCE has worked with 378 English teachers in grades 1-12 from 187 schools across the country, testing new approaches and materials for English language instruction and civic education through English language. The resulting model or models are being promoted to the broader Georgian educational system in order to ensure that sustainable resources are in place to continue sharing best practices and new approaches after the project ends. As a result of the program: `` A 60-hour teacher-training curriculum was developed, which contains 10 different modules on pedagogy and civic education topics; `` 378 teachers from over 185 schools across Georgia were directly trained by the American English Language Teacher Trainers of the ELCE program through 10 full day training modules, followed by classroom observations and feedback-giving sessions; `` Over 185 schools across the country received technology packages, which consisted of DVD players, speakers, laptop computers, 3 in 1 printer/scanner/copiers; `` 86 high performing teachers participated in a five day Summer Institute, during which they served as potential teacher trainers and received additional training materials and handouts; `` The ELCE Blog (www.elceonline.com) and ELCE Facebook page (www.facebook.com/elceonline) were developed, which serve as platforms for sharing information and materials and create a solid network of ELCE alumni English Teachers. During the final stage of ELCE program implementation, ELCE alumni teachers participated in Open Lesson Weeks where they demonstrated best practices and presented knowledge, skills and materials acquired through the ELCE program to other ELCE graduates and non-ELCE participant English teachers, as well as, schools principals, teachers of other disciplines and parents. The best of the lesson plans and supplemental materials developed and used by the ELCE alumni teachers during the Open Lesson Weeks are included in this manual.

Maria Callas
Maria Callas was born Maria Sofia Cecilia Kalogeropoulus in New York City in 1923. Her parents were from Greece. When Maria was seven and her sister was 13, they began singing and piano lessons. Maria had a beautiful voice but she was very shy. Her mother forced her to sing in the concerts and TV programs. Maria won many prizes, but she wasnt happy. Her parents divorced and she moved to Greece with her mother and sister when she was 13. Her mother lied about Marias age and she was accepted to the Athens Conservatory. In 1939 Maria began to study with a world famous Spanish opera singer Elvira de Hidalgo. She changed Marias life. Elvira taught her how to sing and act how to fix her hair and choose beautiful clothes. At the age of 16 Maria joined Greeces National Opera and took the stage name Maria Callas. At 17 she was the youngest permanent member of European Opera Company ever.

In 1947 she joined La Scala, the leading opera house in Milan. By age 24 Callas was giving 59 performances a year. Some people said it was not good for her voice. Sadly, Maria was not happy. She had a very difficult personality and didnt get along with other singers. She had problems with her voice and started to lose her voice at the age of 35. She divorced her husband to live with her lover millionaire Aristotle Onassis. But Onassis didnt marry her. He married Jacqueline Kennedy. Aria Callas died in 1977 at the age of 53.

Handout 1 Job Satisfaction


One thing that people get from their occupation is, of course, money. Most People wouldnt do the job they do if it was not for the payment at the end of each day, week or month. However, the majority of people want more than just a good salary. There are many other things which add up to job satisfaction, the feeling of enjoyment you get from doing a job that makes you happy. What people in employment want from a job varies greatly from person to person. For some, the chances of promotion make a big difference. For others, working in a creative environment with other people makes them happier than they would be working alone. When planning your career, you should consider all the activities involved in a job and decide how each one suits your personality. If you are considering becoming a journalist , for example , do you like meeting members of the public? If you are thinking of becoming an accountant, do you enjoy detailed work with numbers? Just because one job is better paid than another, it doesnt mean its the job for you.

FASHION IN INDIA
TRADITIONAL
The traditional style of clothing in India varies with male or female distinctions. This is still followed in the rural areas, though is changing in the urban areas. Girls before puberty wear a long skirt (called langa/paawada in Andhra) and a short blouse, called a choli, above it. Teenage girls wear half-sarees, a three piece set consisting of a langa, a choli and a stole wrapped over it like a saree. Women usually wear full sarees. For men, traditional clothes are the kurta Dhoti/Pajama. In south India men wear long, white sheets of cloth. In north Indian languages like Hindi, Marathi and Oriya these are called dhothi, while in Telugu they are called Pancha and in Tamil they are called veshti. Over the dhoti, men wear shirts/any.

MODERN
Aspects of Western fashion have become common among Indian men, particularly in the professional community. Horizontal stripes and plaids are common on casual business shirts, particularly among Indians in North America. nowadays most of the teen and adult girls in cities wear low hip jeans, low neck tops, tight jean trousers with salwar, half trousers, sleeveless T shirts etc. Women who hail from rural villages usually wear frocks and half sarees; boys normally wear a shirt and pants, whether formally or casually. Accepted formal dressing for couples in formal occasions like parties and weddings is saree for the ladies and formal pants and shirts with suits in the winter for the men. Indian women have however modernized and working women find western wear like shirts and trousers a comfortable dressing option for work. With entry of international fashion brands like FCUK, DKNY, Guess and many more, Indian women are increasingly becoming fashionable (in terms of Western standards). Among the league of high fashion international brands, domestic brands like Globus, BlackBerrys, Allen Solly, Park Avenue and Van Heusen, have also gained popularity. India has its own popular fashion designers like Ritu Kumar, Satya Paul, Manish Malhotra, Sabyasachi Mukherjee and Tarun Tahiliani.

Handout 1 Materials and texts


A. Monarchies Monarchies and democratic systems can exist in the same country, such as Britain, but the roles of king and president are very different. A king or queen may be only symbolic, such as Britain, or very powerful, such as Swaziland. No matter how much power they have however, kings are determined by lineage rather than through the ballot box. Often, royal families are very wealthy. Once he is crowned king, the king holds the title for the rest of his life. Countries with powerful kings include Brunei, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Swaziland. Countries with mainly symbolic monarchs include the Netherlands and Great Britain.

B. Democratic-Presidential Some Countries have presidents, who are usually elected for a finite term. The constitution of a country determines how long a president can hold office. In order to be reelected, a president usually tries to do the will of the citizens and maintain a strong economy. Unlike a king, a president may be born to a rich or poor family. A president can be powerful but also must be cooperative. There is a president in many countries: Brazil, Georgia, France, Mexico, Romania, Slovakia, Ukraine, the U.S. and many others.

C. Dictatorship Some countries have a Dictatorship System when a country is ruled by one person. A dictator comes into power through the force and violence (Zaladoba) and not by the will (survili) of the people. Dictators can become both poor and rich people, kings and presidents. In countries where there is a Dictatorship the leader doesnt care about peoples right. All the power is given to one person, where the people have limits on their freedom. Dictators are very powerful and rich people. Unlike presidents, they rule country for an infinite term. Some examples of Dictatorship countries are: Cuba, Azerbaijan , Uzbekistan, Syria and some other countries.

Handout 1 Can you guess who I am?


I am 36 years old and own a small restaurant in America. I have two younger sisters. One is 30 years old and her name is Mari. The other is 25 and her name is Barbara. Mari works as an English teacher in Germany, and Barbara is a lawyer in America. We are from England. When I was only eight years old, my family moved to America. Every three years, my sisters and I try to go on vacation together. I am excited because today my sisters are visiting. I will meet them soon. Because I want to look nice, I am wearing a white shirt with buttons and dark jeans. I am even wearing the hat my sister gave me last Christmas. I cant wait to see them!

I am 28 years old and I work as a reporter. Language is very interesting to me, and I like to learn new things. My first language is Hindi, but I began studying English when I was only five years old. Now I am learning French. I have many hobbies besides studying languages. One of my favorite things to do is dance. India has very beautiful dances, and I prefer the traditional ones. India also has very a beautiful traditional dress which I wear on special days. I am wearing one right now! It is called a Sari. Mine is red and gold and looks like a long dress. I think my long brown hair looks especially beautiful when I wear my red sari. After all, the sari expresses the beauty and grace of women.

Hello! I am 30 years old and was born in Estonia. Estonia is a small country in Northern Europe, right below Finland. I work as a translator in the capital Tallin.

Hello! I am 25 years old. I have a sister who is only one year younger than I am. We both like to exercise, and our favorite sport is tennis. When we were little, we practiced a lot because we wanted to be very good players. Now we are very talented tennis players. Sometimes, I am even paid to model clothes! Right now I am on a photo shoot. That is when someone dresses up and then gets her photo taken, usually for a magazine. I am wearing black athletic shorts and a black athletic shirt. My shoes, however, are white. I love my job because I am paid to play my favorite sport! It is important for me to stay healthy so that I am able to play well. That is why I drink a lot of milk.

Handout 2 Teenagers and Work


American teenagers who study often work as well. One report says that teenagers between 14 and 18 work an average of 16 hours a week. What do teenagers think about this? We asked two and this is what they told us: Vanessa Hopkins, 18 Apart from my studies I work about 20 hours a week. I wash dishes and serve food at a local restaurant. Theres only one reason why I work-money. I need the money to pay for my studies .But the problem is that my studies arent going so well at the moment because there are days when I just dont have time to do my homework. I have to work from 9 to 1 some nights. How can I find the time to do my homework after that? Some people say that working is good for teenagers because it gives you experience, it makes you more responsible and independent .No way! Ill have time to do all that when Im older. Right now, Im young and Im at college. I have a great opportunity to learn and improve myself, but Im just too tired to do it. Steve Lacy,15 I have a job at a fast food restaurant. It isnt very exciting or creative but it gives me money. Im saving up to buy a car. Most of my friends work too. Its a great way to become independent and not rely on your parents all the time. Sometimes its difficult to find time to do everything, but Im young, I can do it. If I wasnt working, Id probably just be hanging out with my friends and playing basketball. This way Im doing something useful and making some money. Im also learning about the real world ,the world outside the classroom, and Ive met lots of people there and made some cool friends.

Handout 2 Legends about the United Kingdoms national flowers


England The national flower of England is the rose. The flower has been chosen as Englands emblem since the time of the Wars of the Roses civil wars (1455 1485) between the royal house of Lancaster (whose emblem was a red rose) and the royal house of York (whose emblem was a white rose). The Yorkist regime ended with the defeat of King Richard III by the future King Henry VII at Bosworth on August 22, 1485. Henry VII united the two roses into the Tudor rose (a red rose with a white center) when he married Elizabeth of York. Scotland The Scottish national flower is the thistle. Why did the Scottish people choose this thorny plant as the national emblem of their country? The answer is interesting, and it can be found in the history of Scotland. The people of that country chose the thistle as their national emblem because it saved their land from enemies many years ago. People say that during a surprise night attack by the enemy the Scottish soldiers were awakened by the shouts of the enemy soldiers as their bare feet touched the thrones of the thistles in the field they were crossing. Wales The legend has it that St David advised the Britons to wear leeks on their hats so as to easily tell a friend from the enemy in a battle with Saxons. The Britons won this battle. It was also believed that the battle took place in a field full of leeks. Ireland Long ago, there was a great Bishop, Patrick by name, who came to teach the word of God in the country. Patrick was well loved everywhere he went. One day, however, a group of people came to him saying that it was difficult for them to believe in the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. Patrick thought for a moment and then he took a leaf from the shamrock and told them that it was a living example of the Threein-One- the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Handout 1
Christmas Eve is, of course, the day before Christmas Day. Its quite a busy day for most people who celebrate Christmas. There are so many things to do usually last minute things. For example, you have to quickly send a Christmas card to people you forgot, especially when they sent you one. You also have to do last minute Christmas shopping. I always find Christmas Eve afternoon is a good time to shop. Many people think this is a busy time, but the Christmas rush is over and the shops are quite empty. You just have to hope they havent run out of wrapping paper and sellotape. Then you have to go home and wrap all of your presents and put them under the Christmas tree in the living room. Its such a lovely sightseeing a decorated tree with lots of wrapped boxes and parcels under it. Christmas Eve is not the same in all countries. In Denmark, for example, Christmas Eve is when people have Christmas dinner and open their presents. I think most people go to midnight mass on Christmas Eve. This is a special church service held at midnight to remember the birth of Jesus. I think one of the oldest jokes in the world is: What time is Midnight Mass? Its an easy joke to figure out. Of course, Christmas Eve is the busiest night of the year for Santa Claus. People in England call him Father Christmas. If you look really carefully, youll see him flying through the air on his sleigh full of presents. He used to climb down peoples chimneys to deliver his presents. Im not sure what he does nowadays because people dont have chimneys.

Grouping Students are divided into three groups according to what is written on the slip of paper they pick up at the beginning of class. The three groups are named Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. The students stay in these groups for the entire lesson. Warm up Each student picks up a slip of paper that has one of the names of the three branches of American government. The students organize into three groups in this manner: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. The teacher initiates discussion about government, especially American government. The teacher asks questions like, What is a government? Can you name a couple types of government? What type of government is the American government? What is a democracy? What is a law? What is the Constitution? etc. 1 min

The other teacher gives a presentation of the grammar 3 min aspect of should and should not in a funny way. The teacher explains that we are going to talk about what each branch of government should do. The teacher notes that people make mistakes, even government officials. Activity 1 Before we begin, the teacher incorporates the discussed 1 min concept of voting by asking each group to elect their group leader. The teacher asks each group who their group leader is and writes their names on the board. The Tree Branches of Government: The groups have 9 min a competition. Each group is given slips of paper with facts about the three branches of government that they have already learned in the previous lessons. There will be a picture of a giant tree at the front of the classroom. The tree will have three branches to represent the three branches of American government. The students must stick the slips of paper onto the branches according to which branch of government the fact belongs. The group that finishes first wins the most points. When the competition is done, each group reads aloud their respective facts. Activity 2 This activity serves as a small model of American gov- 10 ernment. Each group works on a separate task accord- min ing to which branch of government they represent. The Legislative Group writes eight classroom laws (rules). They write all laws using should and should not. The Executive Group writes eight sentences talking about what a good classroom president should be like. This group uses should and should not as well. The Judicial Group writes a rubric called The Classroom Constitution that can be used to evaluate classroom laws. The rubric consists of three topics: number of laws, use of should and should not, and the quality of the laws. The rubric also uses should and should not. The Executive Branch presents their traits for a good classroom president. The teacher then points to the names of the group leaders on the board and asks the class who they think meets these criteria best. The students then vote using slips of paper and they put their votes into a box. 3 min

2 min

The Legislative Branch then presents their eight classroom laws. The Judicial Branch then presents their rubric. One of the guests will have counted the votes. After the guest finishes, the classroom president will be announced. Closure
