Teaching Practice 1
Upper Intermediate level

Description

In this lesson, Ss will review and extend their awareness of the use of future forms- will, going to, present continuous and present simple through a listening activity to model the target language. Then, there is a grammar focus part where ss need to figure out the rules with the help of sentences from the recording. After that, ss need to do a gap fiiling activity to practice what they have learned. This is followed by a pair work activity in which ss thiink and talk about the dialogues in the previous activity.

Main Aims

To provide review and practice of use of will, be going to, present simple and present continous in the future form. in the context of future expectations.

Subsidiary Aims

To provide practice in listenning for gist and specific information through a recording about people talking about their expectations of the future.

Procedure (31-45 minutes)

Lead-in (2-5 minutes) • to make ss listen for gist

T asks Ss they will listen to five people answering the question "What are you optimistic about?". while listening, ss will complete a chart about what the people in the recording are saying. While ss listen, T draws the chart on board. After the listening finishes, T nominates different ss to come to board and complete the chart.

Specific Information/detail (5-8 minutes) • to make ss understand the listening text in detail

T asks Ss to divide into pairs and let them do the T/F activity to see if they remember the listening text correctly. Then, T plays the recording and Ss decide whether the statements are T or F. After Ss have finished, T gets FB from Ss.

Personalisation (8-10 minutes) • to make Ss personalize with what they have learned in the listening part

T tells Ss that they have listened to people talking about things they are optimistic or pessimistic. For each speaker, T tries to elicit a heading. For example; since first speaker is optimistic about his retirement, the heading will be retirement. Then, T asks Ss to discuss in pairs if they are optimistic about any of the topics.

Language Focus (8-10 minutes) • To review future forms

T focuses Ss attention to the sentences extracted from the listening. T reads the sentences and asks them if these sentences are talking about things happened in the past or will happen in the future. Then, T asks Ss to complete the rules with the forms in brackets as pairs. Then, T elicits the answers from the Ss and write a chart on W/B to make the differences clearer for the Ss.

Controlled Practice (5-7 minutes) • To give Ss the oppurtunity to practice the TL

T asks Ss to do the gap filling exercise in Grammar Part 2 in pairs. Then, T gets FB.

Optional Controlled Practice (3-5 minutes) • to extend Ss awareness of future forms

T asks Ss to match the dialogues in Part 5 in pairs. Then, T gets FB.
