Prepare a summary of your discussion and report to the whole class.
Work in groups. Think of a form of cultural heritage (such as a tradition, a festival, or a form of music), and discuss ways to preserve it. Report your group’s ideas to the whole class.
Our cultural heritage is a traditional craft that has been passed down from generation to generation in our community. To preserve it, we can organize workshops to teach the craft to younger generations. We can also hold exhibitions and fairs to showcase the craft to a wider audience and sell products made by local artisans. Another idea is to create a digital platform that connects artisans with customers and promotes their work.
Overall, we believe that it's important to involve younger generations in the preservation of cultural heritage and find ways to promote it to a wider audience. By doing so, we can ensure that our traditions and customs continue to thrive and evolve over time.

Di sản văn hóa của chúng tôi là một nghề thủ công truyền thống đã được truyền từ thế hệ này sang thế hệ khác trong cộng đồng của chúng ta. Để bảo tồn nó, chúng ta có thể tổ chức các hội thảo để truyền dạy nghề cho thế hệ trẻ. Chúng ta cũng có thể tổ chức các cuộc triển lãm và hội chợ để giới thiệu nghề thủ công này cho mọi người đối tượng rộng hơn và bán các sản phẩm được làm bởi các nghệ nhân địa phương.Một ý tưởng khác là tạo ra một nền tảng kỹ thuật số kết nối các nghệ nhân với khách hàng và quảng bá công việc của họ.
Nhìn chung, chúng tôi tin rằng điều quan trọng là thu hút các thế hệ trẻ tham gia bảo tồn di sản văn hóa và tìm cách quảng bá di sản đó tới nhiều đối tượng hơn. Bằng cách đó, chúng tôi có thể đảm bảo rằng các truyền thống và phong tục của chúng tôi tiếp tục phát triển và phát triển theo thời gian.
Work in groups. Choose a way of communication and discuss its advantages and disadvantages. Then report your answers to the class.
You can start your discussion as follows:

I think there are both advantages and disadvantages of online calls. Internet calls are cheap or even free. Many social networks provide free calls for people to communicate. Online calls help us to communicate with people that are really far away from us, for example, our relatives or our Internet friends. Moreover, you can create group calls when you are in need of hosting a conference or a family meeting. However, online calls also have drawbacks. You can’t make online calls unless you have Internet connection. Also, you need a smart device to perform a call. Sometimes, you may get unwanted calls from the person you don’t know.

Mình nghĩ là có cả ưu điểm và nhược điểm của cuộc gọi trực tuyến. Cuộc gọi trên Internet rẻ hay thậm chí là miễn phí. Có nhiều mạng xã hội cung cấp các cuộc gọi miễn phí để mọi người có thể giao tiếp. Những cuộc gọi trực tiếp giúp người ta giao tiếp với những người ở rất xa, ví dụ như họ hàng hay bạn bè qua mạng. Hơn nữa, bạn có thể tạo những cuộc gọi nhóm khi bạn cần tổ chức cuộc họp hay họp gia đình. Tuy nhiên, những cuộc gọi trực tuyến cũng có những hạn chế. Bạn không thể thực hiện cuộc gọi trực tuyến nếu không có kết nối mạng. Hơn nữa bạn cũng cần một thiết bị thông minh để gọi điện. Đôi khi bạn có thể nhận những cuộc gọi không mong muốn từ những người bạn không biết.
Work in groups. Discuss the following question and then report to the whole class.
What are the most common generation gaps in your families?
To find extreme viewpoints, I need look no further than my own family. My family has members whose opinions vary widely. These opinions often result in interesting conversations, debates, and occasional disagreements at family gatherings. Two contrasting members of my family are my brother and my father. I understand both of them fairly well, but their attempts to understand each other are less successful. My father and my older brother sometimes assume diametrically different viewpoints.
My brother is artistic and creative while my father is pragmatic and technically minded. One of the more humorous differences between them is their taste in music. My brother is a born musician who loves music with soul. On the other hand, my father is a scientist and listens to Cheo.
Another often humorous difference between my father and brother is the way they wear their hair. My brother wears his hair down to his shoulders. My father, on the other hand, always gets his hair cut when it begins to touch his collar. When my father was growing up in the sixties, all men wore short hair. However, my brother grew up during the twenties when people were more liberal in the way they dressed. The length of my brother's hair bothers my father.
Although my brother and father disagree on many things, they manage to get along very well. Both of them are open-minded and can appreciate each other's differences.
Work in groups. Discuss the skills and experience SSEAYP participants should have. Rank them in order of importance (1 - most important to 6 - least important). Report to the whole class.
In my opinion, the skills and experience SSEAYP participants should have, ranked in order of importance, are:
1. Good English language skills
2. Understanding different cultures
3. Teamwork skills
4. Community work experience
5. Confident speaking skills
6. Understanding current issues in ASEAN countries.
Having good English language skills is essential since it's the working language of the program. Understanding different cultures is also important for effective communication. Teamwork skills are necessary for completing tasks and solving problems. Community work experience can be helpful in developing practical skills. Confident speaking skills are important for presenting ideas in front of an audience. Understanding current issues in ASEAN countries is important, but it is the least important skill or experience since the program focuses on cultural exchange and developing skills for the future.
Work in groups. Discuss what kind of students / learners each option will be more suitable for. Give reasons for your decision. Report to the whole class.
Option 1: Vocational Training
Suitable for: Students who prefer hands-on learning and practical application of skills. Vocational training is more focused on job-specific skills and can provide opportunities for immediate employment. This option is also suitable for students who are looking for shorter duration of study and want to save on the cost of education.
Option 2: Academic Study
Suitable for: Students who are interested in a broad range of subjects and want to develop critical thinking and research skills. Academic study provides a wider range of career paths and opportunities for pursuing advanced degrees. It also promotes personal and intellectual growth and helps build a strong foundation for future learning.
Ultimately, the choice between vocational training and academic study depends on the individual student's interests, goals, and learning preferences. Some students may find vocational training more suitable for their career goals, while others may prefer the broader education and research opportunities offered by academic study.

Work in groups. Add more steps or tips, and report to the whole class. Vote for the best recipe for cooking rice in a rice cooker.
Some additional tips for cooking rice in a rice cooker that can be discussed in your group:
1. Use a rice washing bowl to rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking. This will remove excess starch and impurities from the rice.
2. Soak the rice in water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the rice to cook evenly and absorb moisture better.
3. For brown rice, use 2 1/2 cups of water per cup of rice, and cook for a longer time than white rice.
4. Once the rice is cooked, let it sit in the rice cooker for 10-15 minutes before serving. This will allow the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and become fluffier.
5. Use a non-stick rice cooker bowl or add a tablespoon of oil to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the bowl.
Imagine you visited Sapa. What did you see? What did you think of it? Write a short report of your visit and read it to the class

Last summer, my family and I went on a vacation to Sapa, and that was the nicest place I have ever been to. After passing through several hills that were covered in mist, Sapa finally appeared as a beautiful floating island in the cloud. There are many beautiful hotels and villas in Sapa, and all of them together create a very ancient atmosphere. The famous destination in Sapa is the Silver Waterfall, the current carries a huge amount of water down the cliffs, and it makes a sound which can be heard in a long distance. In the evening, we hang around at the outdoor market. There are many interesting featuring goods of Sapa that I did not have chance to see before. The next day we spent most of our time going out to enjoy the natural sight. The most dramatic scene here is the terraced rice fields. I have never thought that a farm scene could be this beautiful. The sunset here is also very different, and we can completely harmonize into the miraculous nature in Sapa. I love the atmosphere here, and I hope that I am able to come back here one day.
