" and says "Celia doesn't know Andy , what questions can she ask to start a conversation ?" Now they go to the text, listen to it and practice the conversation in pairs. Then Teacher reads part C Notice , elicits some examples and ask Ss to go through exercise D and answer , then as the Activation part, T. asks Ss to creat and paractice new conversation , they can use some different places.

Teacher plays the audio and ask Ss to repeat after each sentence. (This part can be done before Activation on Warmer part.)

Useful Language (10-15 minutes) • To highlight and clarify useful language for coming productive tasks

Teacher tells Ss to take a look again yo the conversation , write this on the board : " Do you work out everyday ? Well , I come here before class."

Ss fold the slips of papaer , mix the up, and place them in the middle of the group. S1 picks a slip of paper , reads it silently and answers the question aloud. The rest of the group tries to guess what the question is.Whoever guesses the question keeps the slip. S2 then picks a slip, the game continues until all the slips are chosen, whoever has the most slips at the end is the winner.
