I am going to use this on Monday. I will probably start with a wordweb on the board where they say everything they know about the earthquake/Haiti/etc. Then I will pass out the gap reading exercise and have them work on it in partners. Then we will go over the answers. Then I will put them in groups of 2 or 3 and give them each one writing prompt and 10 minutes to write their 5 sentences or whatever. Then I will have them share with the class.
