Procedure (29-46 minutes)
I will begin the lesson by relating it to the text. I will ask students to find and underline all the examples of “quite” in the text. I will elicit from students what kind of words come after "quite" (adjective, adverb or a noun).
When we are done, I will project a picture on WB which includes the different meanings of “quite” and distribute some handouts which include example sentences. They need to match the sentences with their meanings. ICQs: Are you going to match? Are you going to work with your partner?
Meaning After matching activity, I will project some short dialogues on the board. I will read the sentences aloud by paying attention to my intonations and elicit from the students the different meanings of the modifier"quite" After each dialogue, I will ask students some concept check questions."Does it mean completely or a little bit?" , "Does it mean a large amount or a little amount?" Form I will write some sentences on the board to teach student the use of the modifier"quite" I quite agree with you. This sentence is quite easy to understand. He spent quite a lot of Money. We always use it before adjectives, adverbs, verbs and quantifiers. Pronunciatiion As I assumed, students may get confused about the pronunciatiion of two words "quite" and "quiet". They also have different meanings. We will do drilling and I will explain the meaning of "quiet".
When we are done, I will distribute a handout to check if they understand or not. After that, students will move to the controlled practice 2 on page 71. This will be followed by the semi controlled practice 3 on page 71. I will ask students to read the statements and write an amount of money for each of them.
When the students finish the semi controlled pactice, I will put them in pairs and I will ask them to compare their answers with their partners. "Do you agree with your partner ?" "Is it too much money?" Before I set up the activity, I will demonstrate it. ICQs: Are you going to write? Are you going to work in a group?
I will distribute HOs to the students. They will do it individually. After that we will correct the mistakes on the board. ICQs: Are you going to work in pairs? Aree you going to put the words in order?
