Procedure (47-58 minutes)
T will show the pictures of different kinds of food shopping places on WB and Ss will guess what they are. Then, Ss will work in pairs to discuss two questions about food shopping which are "How often do you shop at places like these?" and "In your home, who does the food shopping?" and see if they have anything in common with their partners.
T will hand out a paper in which three people from different countries give their opinions about supermarkets and small shops and whether they like them or not. Ss will answer the question individually and check their answers in pairs. Then, T will ask Ss in groups to find the negative and positive adjectives within the text helping them to find the answers (like a competition). Then, T will ask for the antonyms of the adjectives, elicit the answers from students and write them on WB.
T will hand out a paper of matching exercise with target language. Ss will work in pairs and write their answers on the WB.
T will underline the phrases of expressions for giving opinion within the previous exercise which are: "I think, I don't think, I find, If you ask me, They should, I guess" and give the meaning and form of the phrases on WB and drill some pronunciation. T will ask CCQs for the phrases that may be hard to be understood by Ss.
T will hand out a paper with a question: "Think about places where people buy food in your country. What are their good and bad points?" and ask students to answer the question with short notes in two minutes. They will work individually.
T will group the Ss (in 5-6 people groups) and ask them to talk about their answers and whether they agree or disagree their friends' opinions. T will monitor Ss while they are talking to each other, encourage them to use target language and write the errors down to correct later on in WCFB.
T will hand out a paper with 7 sentences of "Find someone who..." and ask all students to stand up and find their friends who matches with the options and write their names. Then, will elicit the names from Ss after they have their seats.
