Procedure (26-40 minutes)
I will introduce the concept of a 'language sheriff'. The language sheriff will be visually identified be by a sheriff's star labled with the Union Jack and be responsible to ensure that they only speak English in group work.
I will present my current(simulated) office equipment purchase such as highlighters, crayons, glue sticks, etc., each of which will be available in a larger amount. I will elict as many key vocabulary as possible to reduce teacher talking time and check their previous knowledge.
I will present model sentences myself, followed by drilling on pronunciation if necessary. I will also provide written examples on the whiteboard for further reference.
The students will get time to produce sentences for themselves(some and any in descriptive sentences), which will be supervised by a language sheriff in each group before checking answers in class. The students will also be asked to note down these sentences for further reference.

I will set up a school shop with typical office equipment material. One student will be the salesperson(alternating), other students will get the task to buy items at that shop which might be available or not available from time to time. This stage will include some flexitime and challenges for more advanced students who could set up their own shop and come up with ideas which items are available in their shop.
