Procedure (42-47 minutes)
Ss work in pairs try to find and underline the prepositions of place in the reading text they received in their previous lesson. T elicits the answers and nominates some ss to read them.
Ss observe a projection of a list of prepositions of place step by step while the teacher elicits examples and provide models. Ss receive some notes and practical details of the prepositions on a handout which they can use as a reference for their upcoming tasks.
Ss are provided with a simple street map projected on the board. T tells them a short story about a person who wants to go to these places. T models some questions and elicits the answers. Some example sentences are shown on the board for the Ss to understand the structure better. Ss in pairs or small groups look at the map making sentences using prepositions. T observes and provides help. Some ss present the sample answers they made.
Ss receive a handout containing a piece of a street map and a set of sentences. Ss work in pairs to complete the blanks in the sentences with appropriate prepositions based on what they see on the street map. T nominates some pairs to give the answers and the whole class listen and check their answers; if wrong, they provide the correct one.
SS are put in two groups of As and Bs. Each of the groups of A and B receive different information gap handouts which are complementary to each other. First ss in each group prepare a set of questions regarding the blanks of information in their text. Then one A and one B pairs off and ask each other their questions and try to complete their texts.
