Lead-in (5-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

The students will be given an image with a text, saying Thanks for not smoking. They are going to be asked about the meaning of the Thank in the text, if it means gratitude or prohibition. Then students are going to be reading a text with intonation, we are going to practice the stress in the words from the sentence given. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F5YnjV7-tWmmK5s8nCMmiKVTl4M6vK85/view?usp=drive_link Let´s train intonation: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1rbndHF5HELxTlBj3O8F4MzeWDAwJUq8QjXcG53fQs-8/edit?usp=drive_link

TEXT WORK (8-8 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text about a situation between two people.

We are going to read together a text that I will present to them in a link, where we are going to look for the meaning of the text; what it says, what it talks about and discover the words whose meaning we do not yet know. We are going to see a little about form in relation to apologies, grammatical structures. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lQydMVqsG-_epU4ALpzQmhUyCFiQURPy/view?usp=drive_link

Clarification, MFP (12-12 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, appropriacy, form and pronunciation of the target language

I will share a link where Ss will go to Google slides, they have to match the meaning of the sentences given with the meaning given is in disorder. Ss will be giving another link with a Google form where they will have to choose between a formal sentence and an informal sentence. There will be 22 sentences they have to decide if they belong to a formal language or informal language. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1YbJFBkIbPobBb3U4sPqH8BXKCcUUsp3r7757I8hxfKM/edit#slide=id.g2d6d96eeea5_0_421 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScLhmPXAUAnxzawkZeiwZZYwD8goJsUZydncmvVmby8ZyUolA/viewform?usp=dialog
