This lesson sample was created for a month-long "Book Discussion" course for a private academy in South Korea. This month we read "Eat Pray Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert and this lesson emphasized American culture. Students read the chapter and then attended the 45-minute class each week to discuss the plot, themes, and vocabulary from "Eat Pray Love".

This lesson sample was created for a month long "Book Discussion" course for a private academy in South Korea. On the first class of the month, we tried to explore our background knowledge in a 100-minute lesson. As the teacher, I presented context of the novel and students would engage in deep classroom discussion. This month's Book Discussion was on "The Remains of the Day" by Kazuo Ishiguro.
