Procedure (14-20 minutes)
After introducing himself, T begins acting like he forgot where he'd put his book, pen and laptop. T asks for help from Ss and try eliciting oral answers, directions. Whenever he finds one of his materials, he emphasizes the words "under, in, on, next to."
T shows the ppt slides to Ss for visual exposure to the structure. T reads the example aloud and asks Ss to repeat. T also includes a short imitation game here by asking Ss to read one of the sentences with a sad face, with a laughter, a cry and a sleepy face.
T takes out his toys and puts them on his table. After placing them, T asks Ss "Where is the Spider-Man?" After eliciting the correct answer and repeating it aloud, he asks another one: "Where is the car, Lightning McQueen?"
T divides the class into 5 groups and gives one toy to each group. T asks Ss to place it somewhere close by and talk about it's location. The activity continues by taking turns, giving every student a chance to touch the toy and utter a sentence.
