Procedure (48-66 minutes)
After greeting all the students, I show them a picture of wedding. I ask students about what it consists of, how so far they like it and what the best they liked more. also I ask to talk in pairs about what we need to prepare for attending such occasion.Then , I discuss their ideas.
I tell the students a very short story " I was invited to one of my friend's wedding last year. He invited me just one day before his wedding so in fact I hadn't enough time to prepare myself. I had some problems .I had a broken down car" I show them a picture of a broken car asking them where you expect me to go to prepare it . Students will say to the mechanic" I show them a picture of a mechanic repairing the car and elicit the expression" I had my car repaired" Next, I ask students CQs like" Did I repair the car myself? No", "Did the mechanic repair the car? Yes.And so on with the same steps I give them other examples for other problems like " long hair, toothache ,bad shoes..".
I give each pair of students a slip pf paper having an incomplete sentence asking them to work together to form a correct sentence .Then, I check their answers and ask them CQs.
I ask all students to stand up and make a circle. Then, I tell them next week we are going to go to a birthday party.So, I ask them " What will we need to do?". I start saying " I will have my hair cut, and you throwing the squeaky frog to a student to tell what will he need to do.and so on till each student practice more speaking in the target language.
I instruct students that they will have a sheet of paper having some questions about what the best place they have their things done. I direct them to base their discussion on the town they are in now.I check their answers using CQs.
I instruct the students that they will have a sheet of paper having some disordered sentences and they will write them in the correct order " in pairs " . Then, each student will rewrite the sentence so that they are true for him.
