Procedure

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

After greeting, I name some love movies to grab the student's attention about these stories. Then I ask them "do they like the love stories?"

Pre-Reading/Listening (10-15 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible

I play a short video about a sad love story and ask the students to talk with their partner about it. Then I ask some ideas of WC. Then, I give them some cutout with pictures to match the vocabulary.

While-Reading/Listening #1 (11-13 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist and specific information reading/listening tasks

First, with a clear ICQ, I explain that the students should listen to a song, and while listening, they should answer two WH questions about the whole idea of the song. Then I give them time to share their idea with their partner and check their answers. As the controlled practice, I give the students the lyric of the song with some missed words. After ICQ, I play the song again to write the missed words. Then I ask them to check their answers with their partners, and then, I give WC feedback.

Post-Reading/Listening (12-15 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

I ask the students to write a love story and then talk with their partners about it. While they are speaking, I try to write some errors down to give the students late error correction.
