T hangs out three well known magicians' pictures on the WB. Ask themwho they are, what they do in their shows and what kind of problems they can have during their shows. Ss discuss in pairs.

Exposure (4-6 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

After Ss finish PW, ask some of them their ideas about the pictures. Change the pairs and groups by using colours. Tell them to take the photocopies of the text (which is given in the previous lesson Teacher - Liliana) and tell them to look through the text again and ask them to find the sentences related to the present modals. Then they will check the sentences with their partners. Check with WC.

Highlighting (5-8 minutes) • To draw students' attention to the target language

Hand out the dialogue about David Copperfield. (you can remind the person from the visuals) They will decide the correct modal verb. After they finish, tell them to check their answers with partners. Give them the Answer Key. Check with WC

Clarification (8-10 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

After they check Answer Key, try too get the meaning of the form from the SS. T: "It can't be him. He's too old" Is the person 100% sure? Ss: No T: Is is a possibility? Ss: Yes. T: Because ..... Ss: The person is not sure enough. Write the marker sentences on the WB. We must be wrong. This may not be the whole truth. And clarify the language. Meaning: CCQ We know that we must be wrong. Do I know the reason in this sentence? - Yes Am I sure %100? - No(almost) Is there a strong deduction? - Yes Form: We must be wrong. S + modal verb + infinitive • • Pronunciation: We must be wrong. /mʌs/ /rɒŋ/ Drill the sentences. Listening for Pronunciation. Track 2.16. Drill the sentence to see the word stress. Track 2. 17.

When they finish, change the partners and discuss the ideas. Then WC check, read the sentences, explain why they have chosen that modal.

Free Practice (5-8 minutes) • To provide students with free practice of the target language
