Procedure

Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To remind them about the previous lesson.Furniture and appliances.

I am going to put some pictures of a house and rooms on WB. I am going to give some flashcards to random students to make them match each word to the right picture. Make other students to correct them if they have put them under the wrong picture. The st who puts the flashcard will make the class repeat the word on board.

Pre-Listening (7-10 minutes) • To introduce the concept of house-sitting

Divide the WB into two.Ask one student who can draw well to draw a baby on one side and a house on other side. I ask the class some questions to elicit the concept baby-sitting and a baby sitter and follow it by the concept housesitting/housesitter. Part1:CCQs -Who has a baby/babies? -Who is looking after your babies? (..mother) -When mother is not at home? (..me) -When you are not at home? (grandma) When grandma is at hospital? -Do you leave the baby alone at home? (...no) -Who will look after your baby? (...babysitter) -What do you call the person who babysits? (...Baby-sitter) Part2: CCQs -There is one person who does the same for houses when we are on holiday. -How do we call this person? (house-sitter) -What does he do? (.. house-sits) Drilling part 1 *Do you think housesitting is a good idea? ~good idea ~is a good idea ~house-sitting is a good idea. ~do you think house-sitting is a good idea? Drilling part 2 Split the class into 2. One part says ; I think,it is a good idea. The other part says; I think it is a bad idea. Move them into groups counting 1,2,3. Ones are together,2s are together. Give each group a picture and a title. Tell them to discuss - Are they good/bad for house-sitting? If they are good,why? If they are bad,why?
