PROJECT WORK - READING ON LINE NEWSPAPERSAbstractThis activity aims at giving the students an opportunity to see examples of Passive Voice constructions in a real context (newspapers). In this lesson students will also be able to identify what type of newspapers they are, the different sections and how headlines are written. It can be used as a post-presentation lesson to reinforce the understanding of the structure.
