Materials
Main Aims
-
To provide clarification and practice of language used for asking prices in the context of a cafe
Subsidiary Aims
-
To provide clarification of food and drink on a cafe's menu
Procedure (34-45 minutes)
I will present a picture of the cafe in ITI and ask these question? where is it? Who is the women? what do you usually buy from it? Then for the lead-in, Sts will see a picture of a menu from the book.
After matching the prices and items on the menu, sts will see a video of a conversation in the cafe to, first, answer a gist question and, second, be exposed to the TL function, which is going to be practiced freer toward the end of the lesson.
Sts will, primarily, learn some vocabulary about food and drink on the cafe's menu. Then, they are going to do a fill-in-the-blanks activity for this stage. Teacher tries to be involved less and let sts discover the structure of the function themselves. Teacher can highlight the structure on the WB with the help of sts. I need to clarify the intonation and sentence stress.
Sts are going to roleplay the conversation they have already listened and practice. One takes the role of a customer and one the assistant.
Each stage has its own short feedback, however, before a freer practice to end the class in which sts are going to ask about any other items on the menu, they will receive feedback on intonation of questions and answers. After drilling and free practice, I am going to provide a delayed feedback on WB.
