Procedure (45-65 minutes)
In this phase the instructor raises a question : the most problematic areas in speaking. Then learners are asked to tell about the definition of fluency and ways of achieving this process.Afterwards,they start talking in pairs .
After sharpening their background knowledge ,in a piece of paper they write about any kinds of fillers they know,then there is time to compare their drafts with the main source (sticking on the wall or on PC). During their discovery,the instructor is approachable and helpful.
This stage consists of engaging learners in pairs having a broader perspective towards fillers and strategies. They start talking in pairs to be more confident in understanding the meanings and right places of different fillers. It should be noted that the context of speaking is Lateness.
Working on useful vocabularies related to the context is the main focus of this stage. By the virtues of self discovery learners find it more interesting to work on the meaning of the new phrases and vocabularies presented in context.
According to the context (lateness) and using the fillers and strategies learners try to have their own roles in speech (working in pairs) just after working on the main chart of strategies and it`s related categories.Finally a listening would cover the lesson for reviewing and checking the fillers in real language.
