Ss look at the pictures on the book and guess what happened to Megan in their groups. T takes w/c feedback.
Ss listen the track 1.38 to check if their guesses are correct or not, and answer the questions in exercise 1b individually. Ss discuss the answers in their groups, t hangs answer key on the walls, ss walk around and check their answers in groups. T takes w/c feedback, and shows examples of narrative tenses on the board and keeps those examples on the WB during the whole lesson to create a background for the speaking activity.
Ss listen the track again to complete the sentences from the story with the verbs given in exercise 2. Ss check their answers in their groups, t shows the answers on the board while taking w/c feedback. T asks CCQ to make the meaning clear.
