C1. Thomas Heatherwick - Building The Seed Cathedral

Thomas Heatherwick is one of the most inspiring British designers living today. This lesson plan is based on his 2011 TED Talk where he discusses four of his most innovative projects, including his winning design for the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. The lesson plan includes a PowerPoint presentation and variety of exercises that involve listening practice, note taking, discussion and an introduction to cognitive language and how it is used for discussing abstract concepts. It is quite a challenging lesson that is only suitable for advanced level learners. However, it as also very engaging and a great example of the quality of English Evolution teaching material. Enjoy.
