Procedure (45-46 minutes)
I will show a picture of Nadine and write her week routines to elicit the verbs from the students such as: she goes, lives, studies and works. Afterwards, I will show them picture of (when, where, what) drill them and describe them with gestures.
I am going to abstract some sentences from the listening that they will listen to in the vocabulary lesson part.
I will give students cut up sentences that highlight the difference between the use of 'does' and 'do'. Students will be divided into 2 groups and will have 3 minutes to make the sentences in order. One from each group will go to the board and stick the sentences in their correct order and deduce the basis
I will clarify the present simple with questions on the board as far as its form, pronunciation and meaning are concerned. I will drill the sentences and use the finger techniques for the 's'. Then, I will write on the board a sentences students have to complete it. Students will listen and repeat (CD2 30) to drill the pronunciation. I will give them a handout in which they will have to put a circle on the stressed words while listening to another record (CD2 31) then have a feedback.
Students will work in pairs and answer questions about Luke and Claire in the handout 3 to practice the language they studied. After, each pair will check with another pair. Then as last activity, students will be divided into group A and group B. they will have the same questions task but the answer is different. I will ask them to work in pairs, AB, AB. As ask the Bs and both answers are going to be different.
