The students will be asked ' Do you watch the news and what kinds of news do you watch?'
The students will discuss in groups and speak about the latest news in the world. After that I will let a student from each group to come and write one of their ideas on the WB. I will ask some questions like 'Which country did win the world cup?' to give some clues about the topic of a short reading passage the student will read. Then I will give students a short passage about Messi. After I ask some questions like Who won the golden ball and what did FIFA's president think about the fact that Messi got the Golden Ball then the students will in pairs underline the verbs with their partners and decide which verbs are in passive form.
I will start by asking the question of ' How do we form passive' then 'be+ past participle'. After that I will ask 'Which form do you see' and the the students will elicit the passive form of past simple. Chest and give HO1 and there are some sentences from text in the previous lesson. The sentences are in active form and they will change them into passive form. Write the first item on the WB and make them elicit the passive form. Check it as WCFB. The students who finish the activity earlier will discuss the passive form of tenses used in the sentences.The students will write the passive form of the sentences on the WB. After that I will draw a timeline on the WB and ask to match the sentences with the four times periods in pairs. Then I will ask how do we form the question form of the first sentence in passive voice. Then students will elicit the passive voices' question form.
