In this English class led by Miss Maria Demecoli, students are equipped with skills to utilize skimming and scanning techniques to analyze a play extract titled *An Afternoon on the Beach*. The lesson involves engaging in creative activities related to the play’s theme, setting, and characters while encouraging students to take notes and reflect on visual content, such as a video depicting changing tides and an image of a family at the beach. This interactive approach aims to deepen students’ understanding of themes, characters, plot, and setting within the play.
