● Ask student-knowledge questions (e.g. What do you practice every day? What is something that you never do? What is something that you do only on the weekends?

Useful Language (3-4 minutes) • To highlight and clarify useful language for coming productive tasks

● For ease, an interactive task has been created on the platform Wordwall. Students will work individually and will choose the correct word to complete the sentence. The link for the activity will be shared in the chatbox. ● Students will read the examples and complete the sentence using the key language from the board. Every word is an adverb of frequency. (e.g. 'My brother gets up at 8:00 am every day. He ________ gets up early.' The student has to choose 'always') ● The teacher will conduct an OCFB to verify the correct answers.

Speaking Activity (4-5 minutes) • To practice speaking and listening using the target language.

● Students will go into breakout rooms in groups of 3 to practice. Every student will choose one of the examples on the board for making a question to each partner. (e.g. How often do you cook breakfast? – I sometimes cook breakfast because I don't have much time.) ● The teacher will demo the task with a student using the example of the slide. ICQ: - Will you ask your two partners or just one partner? - Just one partner. - Are you going to use all the situations or just one situation? - Just one situation.
