I will show students Slide 1 and show them a mock up of an agony column. I will ask them if they have ever written to someone to ask for advice. I will ask them to provide some advice for the problem on the mock agony problem (if possible try to get them to use: she should, why doesn't she, if I were her, I would..., etc.)

Put ss in breakout rooms. In pairs ask them to look at Slide 2 of the Lead-in Ss will read three different conversations for 3 mins not minding the highlighted phrases. When finished, as ss in pairs, to identify each problem and the solution for each. i.e., ask ss 1 for problem, ask ss 2 for solution. Monitor and offer help as needed, write notes Close breakout rooms and ask ss randomly to report their findings. Encourage the use of highlighted phrases in the conversations when reporting.

Show ss again Slide 2 with the conversations and ask them to make note of the highlighted phrases. Ask if they are commands or suggestions. Are they formal or informal? Are they in present or in the past?

T will write each phrase on a different slide. T will ask the meaning of each phrase (offer advice/suggestions, etc.) T will ask ss to identify each part of the sentence. T will ask the ss questions in regards to part of speech, verb tenses, appropriacy, etc. but especially making emphasis on the importance of intonation (attitudinal) to show how different intonation could mean the speaker's attitude (command/order, indifference, etc.)

Give ss link to Google Forms Ask them to read instructions carefully. Ask them to reorder jumbled sentences minding grammar, punctuation, etc., to provide appropriate advice structure. Check with whole class when finished.

T will put ss in breakout rooms T will assign a slide containing a problem to ss T will ask ss to read instructions carefully. T will instruct ss to interview 1 of their peers to ask for advice (2 if enough time), write down their advice, and take turns offering advice as well. T will monitor and take notes T will conduct OCFB at the end of class to review any common problems with pronunciation, grammar, etc.
