It includes discussion questions and conversation activities about astrology, zodiac signs, and the horoscope. Students also learn some important vocabulary terms and phrases from the video. The post-viewing section includes follow-up discussion questions based on the video, vocabulary context usage, and choosing the correct definitions of some vocabulary phrases based on the usage in the video. There are additional research & discussion and role play tasks included, as well as a quiz and review section.
