Get ss to read the 1st paragraph individually bearing in mind the highlighted words. Draw Ss attention to the chart. Ask students to arrange them into the chart in pairs. SS then check theirs answers in groups. Present the answer key on the projector.

Clarification (5-7 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

CCQ the adverbs of frequeny: Does he walk 2 days a week? Does he feel stress? Does he get ill a lot? Drill to make sure students can pronounce them correctly. For instance, always /ˈɔːlweɪz/ usually /ˈjuːʒuəli/ sometimes /ˈsʌmtaɪmz/ never /ˈnevə(r)/ Draw the cline on the other half of the board with it's percentages. Dvide the SS into pairs and ask them to put the adverbs of frequencies where they belong. Ask for peer correction

Present the question "How often do you...?" then ask SS to practice freely asking each other 2 questions about the same set of cards.
