The teacher tells the students that they will start a book club, and for that, they need to choose a book. Then the teacher shows several covers of books and asks students whether they know any of the books. So to figure out more about the book, we need to make and ask some questions.
The teacher tells the students that they need to use the link to unscramble the question to make the correct ones using the words given. In this app students have the chance to check their answers, There are 8 question and students are set into pairs, in breakout rooms students try to put the words which are written in the boxes into the correct order, The teacher does the ICQ to make sure that students know what they should do. When students are done with the app and are back in the main room, the teacher shows the correct form of the questions to double-check.
After students checked their questions. The teacher randomly calls a student and ask them to read one of the questions. Then the teacher will back chain the questions, particularly the longer ones and the ones that are more difficult to read. After back chain drilling, the teacher will randomly ask some other students to read the question with the correct intonation.
The teacher shows the answer to the questions and asks students to use the questions they've made in the learning app. This activity will be done in the class. The teacher can nominate students, and for those who can't use their microphone, the teacher asks them to type it down in the chatbox. For the next stage, the teacher refers back to the first topic that we need to pick a book for the book club and shows the books' covers. The teacher explains that each of the students has a different review of the books in the slide. They are set in pairs, and they should use the questions which were drilled to ask questions about the book, and they need to report back to the class when they are done with the interviewing. After Students are done reporting back to the class, the class can pick a book for the book club.
The teacher shows a movie poster and tells the students that it is her favorite movie, and the teacher encourages students to ask some questions to learn more about the movie. The teacher encourages students to use the book's questions, and if some questions can not be used to ask about a movie, by eliciting, the teacher let students know.
