In this exercise they are discovering the meaning of the phrases by themselves. and finally the teacher gets the WC feed back by playing the audio track again and invite them to listen and check their answer to a-e sentences. T:ICQ Do you match the answers alone or in a group together?In a group Do you check the other groups' answers? yes

Clarification of pronunciation (3-5 minutes) • To drill and practice the pronunciation of the TL
