Read out the instructions to the class.

Students work in groups of three or four, discussing the generation differences. Apart from differences, ask the class if there are any similarities between the two generations.

T: We are very familiar with "the generation gap". It's said that there are differences between the children's generation and their parents' generation. Parents can not understand the children and can not be understood by the children. So a gap appears, though they live together. Now work in groups of three or four, discussing the generation differences. Think about these things: (Show a)... b)... c)... on the PowerPoint). Later, I'll ask some groups to report your results to the class.
