Procedure (37-47 minutes)
I will start the class by telling the ss: "remember of a surprise you had time ago, for example, when someone gave you a special gift, when you were accepted in a school, when you became father/mother/uncle/aunt etc" Then I ask the question "How did you react?" I write it on the chat box and them send ss to breakout rooms to talk about it for 2 minutes. ICQs: -Have you thought of anything yet? -How much time do you have to speak? When they finish T elicit comments on their surprises
T provides a text for ss to work on and instructs: "you will read this text and you will put the sentences in the box they belong". Ss are sent to breakout rooms and they read while they have to order the highlighted words in their respective boxes (Surprised/Not surprised). When they finish, T gives feedback on the language and corrects mistakes.
Meaning: T elicits meaning by asking ss CCQs from the language analyisis sheet. Form: T provides an exercise on form. Ss are asked to work in teams to write the sentences in the structure they belong to. Pronunciation: T leads practice on pronunciation of each sentence focusing on intonation. CCQs: -Is the person surprised or not? -What makes you think he/she is surprised? ICQs: -Are you going to only use the highlighted words? (Yes)
T provides a gap-fill activity for students to practice the target language in the context of three different conversations. ICQs: -Which words are you going to use?
Ss are given flashcards with descriptions of characters and a context for each group. Ss are sent to breakout rooms to prepare a role-play using their characters and contexts. When they finish, they will act it out in front of the class. Contexts provided: 1.-You have forgotten the birthday of your brother, you look for help with the first person you encounter and that's _________ (Your partner). 2.-You have won the lottery, you are so excited to tell your family but your lost your ticket while you were running, now, you and __________ (your partner) are looking for the ticket. 3.-You have experienced something shocking and you tell that experience to __________ (your partner). ICQs: -Have you chosen your character? -What is the context for your role-play? DEC is carried out in the end.
