Lesson Overview:
- The reading passage discusses changes in the traditional (nuclear) family structure, summarizes some social trends related to marriage in the UK, and presents the view that love-based marriage has weakened the family as an institution.
- The lesson also includes a focus on the names of different relatives, a list of family-related scenarios for discussion, and a roleplay on handling an aging parent.
- All lessons come with warm-up questions, comprehension questions, a vocabulary section, and discussion questions.
