Do we teenagers in Viet Nam need all or some of these skills? Why/Why not?
2. Discuss:
* Suggested ideas:
I think teenagers in Viet Nam need all of these skills. Because Modern life requires each individual to constantly improve his or her value.
To survive and develop, having life skills is extremely important to anyone.
At the same time, it is a requirement to learn, and to train constantly to improve the quality of life.
3. In groups, work out a similar list of skills that Vietnamese teens should have today. Add or remove categories and skills as you wish and remember to support your decisions with examples and explanations. Present your list along with other groups and make a common list for the whole class.
