That's an interesting video! The point I think this is useful for teaching is the conversation is close to students' real lives! In other words, some phrases are easy to pick up and use in daily life. I'd like to know the context which you think suitable to use this video and how to use it in a classroom.
Hi, Saya. Thank you for your comment. Just as Abdul says, we were trying to use this video to teach language beginners to realize how to handle daily conversation. Such as how to meet your friends, how to talk about the weather and how to invite them to coffee or something. We repeat this three times in the video to enforce the students to remember them. There are also some words we can show them, such as freezing, weather shock....
This video might be used in the classroom to teach (5-8) years students the following: - How to greet . - How to invite someone to drink. - Some vocabulary to describe the weather.
this video is interesting to use as teaching materials for those as explained earlier by Edu.Techno, 2014 "This video might be used in the classroom to teach (5-8) years students the following: - How to greet . - How to invite someone to drink. - Some vocabulary to describe the weather."

many many thanks to the producer, instructor, editor cc. the leader :p
Thanks for this video and the comments. I like the way you integrated both making arrangements in person and over the phone. And I agree that it looks natural, similar to real-life situations. Do you mean that this would be useful for 5-8 year old children? I wonder whether they would be interested in adults making arrangements to go for a cup of tea. Children I know don't do this, they make arrangements to play together either outside, at home or in school. Think about their 'schemata', the learners knowledge of the world, and their interests. Also, I think some of it is hard to understand in the film (background noise). So to model language, I would have gone close up to one person with the camera and microphone to get a clearer sound. Or start the conversation somewhere quiet rather than near the road. Just some thoughts. Gaby Meier
