T focuses the students' attention on the information in the margin on must and should. T reads out the example sentences aloud. T makes sure that students understand the meaning of urgent and point out that something can be important/ not important and urgent, or important/not important but not urgent. T asks SS to complete the explanation with must or should. T allows SS to compare their answers with a partner before checking with the whole class. Afterwards, T asks SS to use must and should to tell their partner about their priorities for today/this week/ this month.
T focuses the students' attention back on the information in the margin on has to and doesn't have to. T explains that have to is similar to must in that it is for things which are important or necessary. The negative form is used for things which are not necessary. T explains that have to is different from must as the negative form of must(mustn't) implied prohibited rather than lack of necessity. T also points that can and cannot used for permission.T goes through the instruction and the example with the class, then ask them to read the text and choose the correct verb structure. T monitors as they do this, offering extra help where needed. when SS finish, T plays the recording for SS to check their answers and then T makes a quick feedback with the whole class.Then T asks SS to discuss other advantages and disadvantages of working at home in pairs.
