Procedure (36-45 minutes)
Slide 2 Show the picture to the students. Ask students where is the man (barbershop) and how do you call a person who receives a service (client). Also ask students what kind of services can you usually get?
Slide 3. Have students look at the questions: —Who is going to repair my car? My friend the mechanic. —Can we decorate the hall? Not well enough. (1) Present the text for students to answer. (2) Send them to BORs to discuss their answers (2) Provide WCFB to the class. (1)
Slide 4 👁 Present the text to students one more time, but this time have them work in pairs. Send students to BORS and have them identify the expressions that indicate that we are having somebody else doing something for us. Students will underline (show them how to draw on the slide). Distribute pairs on a respective slide and have them underline the sentences. a) Will have beverages and food delivered. b) Have it decorated c) Got their hair done d) Get it repaired e) Have your ears repaired (3's) Provide WCFB by calling one student to tell each sentence (2's)
Slide 10. Present the picture of the earache above, ask the class what I did. (Go to the doctor) Write on the slide: I checked my ears. Ask students if I can check my ears myself, then, ask students Who checks my/your ears? The doctor/the ENT/the otorhinolaryngologist. Using the sentences from the text (the one that also mentions ears will be the easiest way for students to do this) elicit a sentence to tell the idea. I had my ears checked. Clarify students that in this kind of sentence, the idea is referred to the subject asking something to be done by somebody else. Also, tell students that they can change <<have>> with <<get>>, but it would be less formal in that case. (5') Slide 11 Present the chart and have students elicit examples, 1 from the text, and the other ones can be invented by them. While students give their examples, take the oportunity to explain the right intonation for each sentence, indicating that intonation is risen up to the object and it falls at the past participle. (10')
