Teenage life - An interview

What's it like being a teenager in Sweden?

Teenage life!

Pretend you are an American reporter who works for the magazine Seventeen! You have been given the task to write about being a teenager in Sweden! In order to do that you will have to interview one! So here is what to do:

 

For some help: Read and listen again to the texts Declan Murphy and Becky Torres, p. 124-127 in your textbook Wings 8.

 

-       Answer the questions below about yourself.

 

-       Write two additional questions.

        You now have a total of ten questions. These ten questions are the questions that    you will use during the interview.

 

-       Give your questions to your friend (you swap so that you get this person´s questions.)

 

-       Prepare to answer your friend’s questions.

 

-       Interview each other! One of you starts being the reporter and interviews the other. Think about:

 

>   Welcome the person to the interview (introduction)

 

>   Tell her/him who you are, and why you’re doing this.

 

>  Ask the questions! Here you can add extra questions if it fits in the interview! Improvise!

 

>   Say thanks and end the interview.

 

>   Change roles!

 

>   You must film the interviews and hand them in to me afterwards./Perform live for me.
