1- Teacher greets students and shows some pictures then ask learners questions related to the topic of the lesson: Have you worked in an office? How was your experience experience? Do you like working at home or at your work place?
2) T chooses 3 challenging words from the text and covers Meaning. 1- Tied 2- Pushed 3- Against 3) Ss are expected to match the word with the correct definition then T checks answers with the class. 4) Later, T explains Form, Pronunciation and Use of the word in different scenarios, as verbs/adjectives depending on the scenarios which are being used. Then nominates a student to make a sentence using one of those expressions. CCQ's: - Theo, in this context, is tied a expression or a verb? - Ana, when can we use these expressions?
5) T tells learners to listen to an audio to listen for gist information. T provides 2 questions in google forms about the audio so students have a general idea of what the listening is going to be about. 1.- What do you think is Judy's job in the office? 2.- Why did people keep interrupting Judy? 6) Learners go to breakout rooms and compare their answers in pairs for 3 minues. 7) T monitors and takes notes for OCFB after learners finish the activity. ICQ's: - Luis, how much time will this take? - Theo, are we working in groups or in pairs?
8) T tells learners to listen again carefully for specific information and plays the audio a second time. T shares screen to let students see what questions they are going to answer then provides a google forms link for learners to answer 5 questions about the audio while they are listening. 1.- Tina wanted to ask Judy about... 2.- What did Martin want to ask Judy? 3.- Judy tells chleo she is... 4.- How much time did Judy give Amanda to go back to her office? 5.- Why does Collen want to work in Judy's office? 9) The learners check the answers in pairs using breakout rooms (10min) before OCFB. T monitors students and takes notes for further feedback/comments. ICQ's: - Ana, are you going to discuss the answers in private message or in breakout rooms? - Theo, how much time is this going to take?
10) T projects the slides and tells Ss that they are going to discuss the following questions. T reads them out loud: 1.- Have you used one of the expressions seen in today’s class?Which ones? 2.- In what situations? 3.- If you have not, which phrases do you use when people interrupt you when working? 4.- Have you been overwhelmed with work? 5.- What happened? 11) After reading them, T tell students the instructions "You will be working in breakout rooms to discuss the questions. You will have six minutes to talk about this." ICQ's: - Ana, are you going to work in teams or pairs? - Luis, how much time do you have for this activity?
