Procedure (29-35 minutes)
I will show a picture related to an environmental issue (e.g., pollution, deforestation) and ask students: What do you see? How does this affect the environment?
Elicit Vocabulary I will show pictures and ask guiding questions to help students guess the words. Then, I will confirm the correct answers, write them on the board, and check understanding using CCQs. Finally, I will model pronunciation and have students repeat.
I will give students a short text about environmental issues and ask them to read quickly to answer a general question (e.g., What is the main problem discussed?). They will then compare their answers in pairs before a whole-class discussion.
I will clarify the meaning, form, and pronunciation of the target vocabulary. I will use CCQs to check understanding, highlight word stress, and provide example sentences to show usage in context.
Students will complete a gap-fill exercise using the target vocabulary. They will first work individually, then check their answers in pairs before a whole-class feedback session.
Students will work in pairs to discuss a real-world environmental issue using the target vocabulary. They will share their ideas and possible solutions, then present their discussion to the class. I will monitor and provide feedback if needed
