Main Aims

  • To provide clarification of numbers in the context of population, followed by a controlled and semi controlled practice

Subsidiary Aims

  • To provide accuracy of speaking in using numbers in the context of population

Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set the context of population and engage students

-T talks about how crowded Istanbul is and compares it to her home town (Tehran) -makes Ss talk about the population in Istanbul and Turkey -Ss, in pairs, will talk about the population of their hometowns and their distance to Istanbul. (or their country and distance to Turkey) - Ss will write some of the numbers on the board. - T FB

Test #1 (5-6 minutes) • To gauge students' prior knowledge of the target language which is numbers

- Ss will be given a worksheet (grouping numbers and weekdays)- set the task -Ss decide on the numbers they know, not sure and don't know at all- individually - pair check in pairs to help each other - T monitors carefully and takes notes. - WCFB

Teach (10-12 minutes) • To clarify areas of the target language where students had difficulty or didn't know at all

- T reviews the numbers Ss have learned before but have problem with and teaches the bigger numbers - T draws numbers on the board. i.e: 2 22 222 2,222 22,222 Elicit each number from a different student. As the numbers get bigger, helps them by drawing a ‘+’ in the number to indicate ‘and’. E.g. 2+22 = two hundred and twenty-two. - MFP (Highlight the different stress between numbers such as 16 and 60) ( Clarify the correct use of "and" ) (Highlight the use of the comma to separate numbers.)

Test #2 (3-5 minutes) • Check students' use of the target language again and compare with the first test

-T plays the audio of page 72,4.44 - Ss listen and write the numbers - Ss check their answers in pairs -FB

Controlled practice (5-7 minutes) • Ss practice numbers and questions related

-T gives Ss the HO task1 -Ss will choose 9 numbers and write them in their bingo grid. - T reads the numbers in a random order, pausing between each number to give students time to find it on their Bingo grid. Ss mark each number with an ‘x’ as you call it out. -Students listen and play Bingo! The student who calls Bingo! has to read out each of their numbers for you to check. - T monitors to make sure students have learned the high numbers and takes note of mistakes to do DEC

Semi controled practice (8-10 minutes) • To provide students with free practice of the target language which is use of numbers.

- Task 2: Facts & figures around the world – jigsaw reading -T Puts students into pairs, A and B. Give each student a copy of Task 2 (A) or Task 2 (B). - Students spend a few minutes looking at the information that is missing from their texts. They think of the questions they will need to ask in order to get the information. - Students take turns, asking and answering questions to complete the information in their texts. - T writes this prompt on the board to help students formulate their questions: How far is x from y? - T monitors and takes notes -T gives FB
