Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

Pre-Reading/Listening (10-12 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible

- Ss in pairs. - Tell them to look at the statements on HO1. - Ask if they/ someone they know do one of these things? (e.g. a friend or father or a neighbor) - With their partner, they will choose the most top 3 dangerous things while driving. They will write 1 for the most dangerous and then 2, 3. Give them (2 mins to decide) - Elicit their answers. (Just in case activity will be projected on WB if Ss has difficulty on understanding the meaning on some words)

While-Listening #1 (10-12 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging specific information listening task

- Ss will check their answers for the most dangerous thing. - Ss will listen to the first one minute of the listening and check if they have number 1 correct. - Ss will listen to the rest of the listening and number the statements. - 1 for the most important and 7 for the least important. - Ss Peer check. - Hand them the answer key.

While-Reading/Listening #2 (14-16 minutes) • To provide students with more challenging detailed, deduction and inference listening tasks

- Ss in pairs, - They will take notes about the actions. Why are they dangerous? - Tell them not to panic, we can listen twice. They can share the statements with their partners. - Play the audio. - Ask Ss if they want to hear again. If they say 'yes' Play the audio twice, this time pausing after each reason. - Elicit the reasons.

Post-Reading/Listening (8-10 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

- Give Ss the handouts with statements. - Ss will tick the idea they agree with and put a cross to the one they disagree. - (Tick= agree, x = disagree) They should think about the reasons too. Give them 3 mins. - Ss in groups of 3 or 4. - Form 2 groups and show them the useful language box.
