T shows some pictures and elicits the words. Then T drills the lexis. T asks Ss to stand up and sets them into two groups( if there are 10 Ss or more). Ss stand in the in the circle(s) and pass the pictures and pronounce the words.

Stage-2 (3-5 minutes) • Clarification

T elicits 'vowel' sounds'. Then asks them ' what are the consonant sounds? T asks Ss If they know the meaning of cluster, If not teacher explains what it means. When two more consonants come together we call It consonant cluster.

In first activity Ss just need to Underline the consonant clusters on their own. Then Ss check the answers in pairs. The correct answers are on the board. The second activity is to complete the missing consonant on their own. Ss check the answers in pairs. The correct answers are on the board. In third activity Ss need to listen to the audio track and write down the word they hear. Ss check the answers in pairs. Answers are on the board. T does not monitor in two first activities.
