Procedure (45-55 minutes)
The ss will be shown to some pictures about the reading topic and they will talk about it to each other to guess about what the reading is about. After that they will watch a video about a special kind of robot which can clean the house very easily. it lasts about 30 seconds. Then they will talk to each other about a video and describe their opinions in PW.
In this stage we will have a hand out which contains some match drills it is going to take about 2 or 3 minutes. After that I will show them some pictures from the reading itself to engage them to the reading more than before. Then again ss will discuss about it in groups of 2 or 3.This will take our time for 4 or 5 minutes. After that I will teach them blocking words by means of MPF to prepare them for the reading. This will take 3 or 4 minutes
Now it's the time for some gist Q to see how much ss are dealing with the topic and to measure their ideas with their answers. First they will think about the Q then, they will talk to each other and discuss about it after that some volunteers can share their ideas about the Q.
After some gist Q it's the time to go through to the reading more than before with some detailed Q. First they will think about the Q then, they will talk to each other and discuss about it after that some volunteers can share their ideas about the Q.
In the last stage which I think is the most important stage ss will think about some general Q about the topic and the whole reading. This will help me to see what they've learned and how they can use them in their life and to see whether it was useful or not
