Materials

Subsidiary Aims

Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

– Pair work discussion questions on chat box: • What do you usually shop for? • Which stores do you shop at most frequently? (online shopping counts!) – Quick class FB eliciting one or two answers about their peers

Exposure (8-10 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

Places around town – Set up context of places (stores) around town. – Ss do matching activity with a Jamboard template or a handout shared in the chat box in pairs. – Quick class FB. Tell them they will have clarification of some words in the next stage.

Clarification (8-10 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

– Teacher-led clarification of M,F,P as necessary, focusing on • Meaning: CCQs and elicited personal examples (see ‘Language Analysis’ section for specific CCQs) • Meaning: use of pictures • Form: spelling • Pron: choral and individual drilling • Pron: syllables • Pron: word stress *Amount of time spent on words and balance of M, F, P will depend upon results of diagnostic test

Controlled Practice (8-10 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice

- Ss will listen to four conversations and write where the dialogues are taking place and what the customers are buying. • Demonstrate activity with conversation 1; fill in the chart. • Ss listen to the other 3 dialogues (one at a time), and fill in the chart with the correct alternative. ICQs: How many conversations? Are we going to listen or to read? Do you write full sentences or just the key words? – T monitors, ensuring task comprehension and giving opportunity to listen one more time in case it is needed.

Semi-Controlled Practice (8-10 minutes) • To concept check further and prepare students for free practice

• Share file: “True or False exercise” • Show handout and do an example for Ex.1 with class • Ss do the exercises in pairs (or small groups), then check with class ICQs: Is there only one answer or more than one? Do you need to correct the false sentences?

Free Practice (8-10 minutes) • To provide students with free practice of the target language

- Share file: “Shopping around town” - Model the exercise by asking one student to ask the teacher a question. - Ss talk to their partners and take turns asking and answering questions with the target language. - After pair work, group feedback in the main room. - Delayed error correction based on T’s notes (related to TL if possible) ICQs: Is there only one answer here? Is this a real life answer or are you going to imagine something? Do you work alone or with your partner?
