I will use the marker sentence (people have lunch in cafes) . I will say as we listen to the tape this sentence is true ...many people in Australia have their lunch in cafes.but this is not right in Egypt we have lunch at home . So how we can use this sentence in a negative way . we can add do not to turn this sentence into a negative form Then i will turn the marker sentence into negative form (people don`t have lunch in cafe) Then i am going to ellicite on my fingers . Then i am going to write the form into divided square .
Students complete the sentences for their countries .using either the positive or negative form. Students check their information together. Then open class discussion .
We will go back to the first exercise . I am going to ask them to write three things are different between Egypt and Australia . Then i am going to ask them about three things that are the same between Egypt and Australia.
I am going to tell them to look at the idea ...i don`t have lunch at home .i have it in a cafe ....they can use this idea to make six true sentence about himself . Pair work check Then open group discussion
Which life would you like to live in if your were not Egyptain ....why
