Show Ss a picture on the w/b and let them predict what they think the relationship between the two people is (husband / wife or boyfriend / girlfriend) and what they're doing. Ask for FB but don't say if they're correct.

Set task before Listening #1: check your prediction and understand what they're talking about. After the listening, allow time for peer-check. FB in w/c nominating Ss.

Give instructions: "in pairs, read the conversation and fill in the gaps with the past simple or present perfect of the verbs in brackets". Elicit examples of present perfect and past simple. Give photocopies. Monitor but don't intervene unless they're stuck. Try to understand what they know of the TL. Ss listen and check their answers. Now they complete the exercise with the 3 rules about present perfect and past simple. Answers check in w/c.
