Mark Twain (1835-1910).

       His real name was Samuel Clemens, but he is better known by his professional name, Mark Twain. Samuel Clemens was born on November 30, 1835 in Missouri not far from the little town of Hannibal on the banks of the Mississippi River. He never finished elementary school. He got his education mainly from his observations of people and events on the western bank of the Mississippi River.   

His father died in 1849 when Sam was not yet 12 years old, so the boy had to work to help the family. Sam promised to his mother to be a better boy, to go to work, and care for her. In 1871, he married and moved to Hatword, Connecticut, where he wrote his two masterpieces “The adventures of Tom Sawyer and   “The adventures of Huckleberry Finn” He is famous for his humorous style.

M. twain a dog and three dollars

A DOG AND THREE DOLLARS by M. Twain
I have always believed that a man must be honest. "Never ask for money you have not earned", I alwayssaid.
Now I shall tell you a story which will show you how honest I have always been all my life.
A few days ago at my friend's house I met General Miles. General Miles was a nice man and webecame great friends very quickly.
"Did you live in Washington in 1867?" the general asked me.
"Yes, I did," I answered.
"How could it happen that we did not meet then?" said General Miles.
"General", said I. "We could not meet then. You forget that you were already a great general then, and Iwas a poor young writer whom nobody knew and whose books nobody read. You do not rememberme, I thought, but we met once in Washington at that time."
I remember it very well. I was poor then and very often I did not have money even for my bread. I had afriend. He was a poor writer too. We lived together. We did everything together: worked, read books,went for walks together. And when we were hungry, we were both hungry. Once we were in need ofthree dollars. I don't remember why we needed these three dollars so much, but I remember well thatwe had to have the money by the evening.
"We must get these three dollars," said my friend. "I shall try to get the money, but you must also try."
I went out of the house, but I did not know where to go and how to get the three dollars. For an hour Iwas walking along the streets of Washington and was very tired. At last I came to a big hotel. "I shall goin and have a rest," I thought.
I went into the hall of the hotel and sat down on a sofa. I was sitting there when a beautiful small dog raninto the hall. It was looking for somebody. The dog was nice and I had nothing to do, so I called it andbegan to play with it.
I was playing with the dog, when a man came into the hall. He wore a beautiful uniform and I knew atonce that he was General Miles. I knew him by his pictures in the newspapers. "What a beautiful dog!" said he. "Is it your dog?"
I did not have time to answer him when he said, "Do you want to sell it?"
"Three dollars", I answered at once.
"Three dollars?" he asked. "But that is very little. I can give you fifty dollars for it."
"No, no. I only want three dollars."
"Well, it is your dog. If you want three dollars for it, I shall be glad to buy your dog."
General Miles paid me three dollars, took the dog and went up to his room.
Ten minutes later an old man came into the hall. He looked round the hall. I could see that he waslooking for something.
"Are you looking for a dog, sir?" I asked.
"Oh, yes! Have you seen it?" said the man.
"Your dog was here a few minutes ago and I saw how it went away with a man," I said. "If you want, Ishall try to find it for you."
The man was very happy and asked me to help him.
"I shall be glad to help you, but it will take some of my time and…"
"I am ready to pay you for your time," cried the man. "How much do you want for it?"
"Three dollars," answered I.
"Three dollars?" said the man. "But it is a very good dog. I shall pay you ten dollars if you find it for me."
"No sir, I want three dollars and not a dollar more," said I.
Then I went up to General Miles's room. The General was playing with his new dog." I came here totake the dog back", said I.
"But it is not your dog now – I have bought it. I have paid you three dollars for it," said the General.
"I shall give you back your three dollars, but I must take the dog back", answered I. "But you have sold itto me, it is my dog now."

Vocabulary check

Group division

Learners take cards with book-related phrases on them. They should form groups of 3-4 by joining classmates whose cards have some common theme with theirs(e.g. apple, pear, banana will come together because they are fruits)

Role-play(G,W, SA)

Teacher gives out cards with situations randomly to each group. They need to discuss the situation from the story, assign roles and perform it in front of the whole class.

Situation 1 – Meeting of General Miles and poor author "Did you live in Washington in 1867?" the general asked me.
"Yes, I did," I answered.
"How could it happen that we did not meet then?" said General Miles.
"General", said I. "We could not meet then. You forget that you were already a great general then, and Iwas a poor young writer whom nobody knew and whose books nobody read. 

Situation 2 – General Miles bought the dog

"Do you want to sell it?"
"Three dollars", I answered at once.
"Three dollars?" he asked. "But that is very little. I can give you fifty dollars for it."
"No, no. I only want three dollars."
"Well, it is your dog. If you want three dollars for it, I shall be glad to buy your dog."

Situation 3 – Meeting with the dogs ouner Ten minutes later an old man came into the hall. He looked round the hall. I could see that he waslooking for something.
"Are you looking for a dog, sir?" I asked.
"Oh, yes! Have you seen it?" said the man.
"Your dog was here a few minutes ago and I saw how it went away with a man," I said. "If you want, Ishall try to find it for you."
The man was very happy and asked me to help him.
"I shall be glad to help you, but it will take some of my time and…"
"I am ready to pay you for your time," cried the man. "How much do you want for it?"
"Three dollars," answered I.
"Three dollars?" said the man. "But it is a very good dog. I shall pay you ten dollars if you find it for me."
"No sir, I want three dollars and not a dollar more," said I.

Additional information

Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check learners’ learning?

Critical thinking

Less able learners:

• (4-10) Provide less able learners with the words written on a worksheet so they can choose.

• (15-35) Create mixed ability groups.

More able learners:

• (4-10) Theyname the objects without any help. They can also write synonyms and antonyms to given words.

• (15-35) They can provide support and assistance to classmates that need help.

• Monitor learners to check they remember new vocabulary.

• Observe learners when creating and rehearsing their group performance. Do they all take equal participation in discussions?

• Pay attention to their reflection. Did they feel comfortable during the lesson? What can you do to improve the lesson?

Learners work in groups, discuss their ideas and decide how to act out parts of the story that were not mentioned in the original text.
