Ss try to guess this information about their teacher. -T asks ss to start playing the same game in pairs.
*Note: Before starting the exposure stage; the teacher is free to teach/elicit any vocabularies if he thinks they’re useful to the ss. Ss watch some videos about people getting asked some questions related to the topic (Interview).
-T provides some helpful answers to the questions; therefore, Ss can use and adjust these questions to fit their answers.
T asks the Ss to start writing their adjusted answers to the questions. However, they would do it in groups of 4, so they can help each other and generate more ideas. -T keeps monitoring and helping the students who struggle. -After they finish, T asks each student to discuss his/her answers with another student from a different group.
