Pre-task/Lead in (5-8 minutes) • To generate interst in the topic of giving permisson and asking requests ,and to clarify any lexical items helpful for the task.

In this lead in stage T will expose the students to situations of making requests and asking permission by acting it out with the other members of the TP group. at the beginning of the lesson, T will request 4 favors from her colleagues. Would mind closing the window? (sure) can you please turn on the air conditioner? (Of course) Do you think you clean the board?(No, problem) Can you pass me that bottle, please? (Sure) Then the other members will ask permission to do some things. Do you mind if I go and bring the teacher's book? (please do ) Is it OK if I go out for a minute?(Go ahead) - Before the listening, T will ask the Ss a gist question (What two favours does Rob ask Jenny?) - Ss will watch a video to be exposed to more models of the target language and to the task they're gonna be doing.

Task (7-8 minutes) • To carry out the task of giving permission and making requests in pairs to have speaking practice .

-T will divide the class to two groups ( one group for giving permission and the other for making requests ) -T will give cards of different situations to each pair and they will do their roles accordingly - Ss speak freely in order to achieve communication and do the task. -Tgoeas around the class to monitor,to listen for model sentences and support the students.

Planning (4-5 minutes) • To prepare a report in writing about what their group did during the task .

- Each group will have 3 to 4 minutes to prepare a report about the task of the other group and take notes about what they learned and discovered. ICQs: Are you going to write about your group? (No, about the other group) Are you going to write a long paragraph?(No, just notes) How much time do you have?(3 to 4 minutes)

When do we say this ? is it formal or informal? (Formal, polite request) They may ask students to notice interesting features within this text. -Later on, T focuses on FP of the TL. (check LA)

Practice (5-6 minutes) • To have controlled practice and to repeat a similar task to the one completed to incorporate the new language from the analysis .

-Ss will work individually to do a controlled practice from the WB to focus on the TL. - They will check their answers in pairs. -There will be will be a WCF to correct any mistakes with the TL.

Feedback (3-4 minutes) • To establish correct answers and to highlight correct use of the new language .
