Procedure (90-113 minutes)
__ In this stage, I'll start my lesson asking one of the Ss about the price of his watch: How much is your watch, mr..? (using gestures to show that I'm asking for prices) __ After the Ss answer, I'll say: Can I see it, please? __ T does the same with another Ss, so they get the meaning of "how much" in this context or situation. __ T chooses 2 of the confident Ss to do the same in front of the class.
1_ T gives Ss a controlled activity (matching) as a pre_ teaching vocabulary, then check in small groups or pairs. T monitors, gives help, and finally feedback. 2_ T focuses Ss attention to the pictures in the book, then elicit from them what is happening there. <<how many pictures do you have? what's happening in picture number1...etc>> 3_ T tells Ss to read the conversations at the top of page 36 and, in pairs, they match conversations with pictures (notice that difficult words become clearer )
1_ T tells Ss to listen to the record to check their answers. T replays it again if necessary.
1_ T sets the second activity in the book , tells the Ss to work individually at first, then they work in pairs to check answers. T monitors. ( Form phase) 2_ T plays the record, Ss check their answers.She checks the meaning through CCQs. For example, " So, we use how much to express what?" Then ask Ss to give examples. 3_ T replays the record, and Ss repeat.( that's for Phonology phase) 4_ T makes a quick drilling on the new vocabulary in the lesson, then focus the attention to the useful phrases which are the main aim of the lesson. Drilling chorally and individually.
1_ T focuses Ss attention to exercise3. 2_ T uses CCQs like, which one of the pictures is related to sentence (a). Ss answer picture(3). Then T asks, and which conversation?
