T instructs Ss to add one word to each sentence and does an example together on the board Ss work in pairs to add a word into the sentences Peer check Then Ss listen for the answers Peer check T gives the Answer key and ask the students if all their answers were correct
Tell ss to put the correct word in the cline from least to greatest. No/ None of is 0% Ss work individually to do this peer check FB: Students come up to the board and write the word in the write spot
T instructs Ss into groups of three by ABC T instructs: look at the first and second table and add the word "of" where it fits and find the mistakes. Please fold the paper where only the first and second table is showing. Work together in your groups. Ss do the tasks A&B in their groups and then peer check.

T instructs the SS into pairs and tells them to talk about the two sentences. Why do we use of in sentence a but not in sentence b Ss work in pairs. T takes a couple students answers and CCQ's Can I say most students are here today? No I have to say most _of_ the students are here today. Is that sentence specific or unspecific? Specific Do we use of before a noun? No Do we use of when it's specific or unspecific? Specific
T instructs the students to work in groups first discuss the question and then write an answer when you have all agreed T gives HO and ICQ's Ss will fill the blanks according to what is true for Istanbul. They should try to all agree before they write their answers down. When finished Ss compare their answers with the other groups. FB nominate different groups to give their answers. Then give answer key just to show what the possible answers could have been
Have students work in pairs and make some sentences that are true about Istanbul. When finished have some of the students tell us and sentence and see if the rest of the class agrees.
