Pre-teach vocabulary (4-5 minutes) • To pre-teach/unblock the vocabulary items they don't know from previous task

T will give out HO1 and monitor the Ss work on it and monitor the Ss work. If there are any vocabulary that is not familiar for more than 1 person, it will be elicited for the whole class. An exercise will be done, using the target language and vocabulary items to make the content of the next stage (listening) more clear for the Ss. It is then checked in pairs, then with the answer key from the board.

Aid for listening (3-4 minutes) • To provide the Ss with some examples of the target language used in the listening

Ss will be given the HO and asked to stay on page 1. They will listen to a recording and fill in the gaps. The answers are checked in pairs and then the answer key goes on the board and the Ss will check their answers. The questions are then drilled as a whole class.

Listening for gist (3-4 minutes) • To have the Ss listen to the listening for gist and have an overview of the listening

Ss will be asked to answer the following Qs in pairs after they listened to Tanya and Robert as they are looking at their picture on the board: - Where are they? - Are they good friends? PART A of HO T will check their answers as a whole-class.

Listening fo specific info (4-5 minutes) • To have the Ss find specific info that will familiarize them with the content

Speaking Task (6-7 minutes) • To provide the Ss with a situation to use the target vocabulary and language

Ss are asked to get up and find a pair and make a similar conversation with them. Pairs are changed as and when instructed by T. T will monitor and take notes of any common mistakes in order to help correct them in the next stage.
