The T brings three photos from recent stories which have been in the news. Students discuss what they think in pairs. When they are ready the T elicits their ideas as a class, then explains the rest of the details in each story.

The teacher focuses on the question in the example 'Do you read newspaper every day?', then goes through the other prompts and elicits the questions for each one on the white board.SS mingle and ask and answer the questions.The T asks them to note down when another S answers yes to a question. SS compare results and answer the questions in groups. T tells SS that they are going read some news items from English papers and checks the meaning of new words before reading.

In groups, SS predict what the articles are about and then the T shows 4 headlines on the smart board and writes their suggestions under each headline on the board without saying whether or not they are correct. Then the T asks SS read the articles and match them with the headlines in 3 minutes. The T explains SS will have a chance to read the texts again more carefully afterwards.

SS read the article and choose the best summary for each text individually before checking them in pairs and the T encourages them to find the places in each text where the answer is given.

The T gives SS time to read the questions and choose three they would like to discuss in pairs and then each pair reports their answers to another pair.
