Procedure (34-46 minutes)
At first I should create motivation in the class between students by establishing reports, asking some questions about their previous background knowledge that are related to the lesson etc.
After warm up, I'll give them lesson handout and I'll introduce the topic (elicit) then I'll have pre-teaching about vocabularies in order to developing their schema.
In this part I have 2 separate steps : In 1st step, learners will have skimming, checking answers in pairs and being volunteer by asking specific questions. In other hand, 2nd step after skimming, is about scanning and they should study the text by details.
At the end, they are asked to have a sheet and according to some questions they should write their brainstorming that are related to their taught vocabularies and then I'll ask them to discuss with each other about themselves ideas and the teacher will be as a monitor and does monitoring.In this stage the main aim is clarifying the problems.
