After this, a short match up quiz will be done, this time the students will match the word to its definition.

Part 1 ( 20 min max):
In this section, the focus will be on why porn consumption has gotten out of hand; basically, on the causes of uncontrolled porn consumption. Hereby, you will see the reaosns that will be explained:

Then, there is going to be a last activity that will be a short survey in which the general topic overview will be asked.

For a more relaxed activity, we will provide a word-search assigment, where vocabulary will be practiced.
