Procedure (38-45 minutes)
T will begin lesson with 2 questions: - What are things you have studied? - What are things you have been been studying T will model response. T will elicit answers to the questions from students. (Hopefully this will help students begin to think about the difference between the tenses). *If there are many students, T will send Ss to breakout rooms for 2 minutes, then bring back for brief feedback.
T will present Ss a question to Ss asking them to give the main idea for a dialogue which they will read quickly for gist. T will give Ss 1 minute to read text T will ask Ss what the main idea of the text was and give them 3 answers to choose between. T will elicit answer, and ask class if they agree. T will then bold phrases and ask students to identify the function of these bolded phrases. T will then as the student to differentiate between the bolded phrases and the bolded and underlined phrases. (This will expose them to the different verb tenses.)
T will show a series of pictures and ask the Ss if a sentence in the present perfect simple or the present simple continuous would best describe the picture. T will model the first example and give reasons for choice. T will elicit from students why one tense would be used over another and elicit the meaning which is conveyed. T will help students elicit form. T will model first, by identifying phrase structure. T will model pronunciation (stress and weak forms), elicit stress, and conduct choral and individual drilling for 4 sentences.
T will model a fill in the black activity which they will do in breakout rooms. (or as a class if there are very few students). T will instruct them to work for 4 minutes in breakout rooms. Someone should share the screen and they will do the fill in the blank activity as a group. T will ask if there are questions. T will send link to chatbox and give students 4 minutes in groups. T will bring everyone back for OCFB. T will elicit 2 answers, and then show the answer key and see if the students have any questions.
T will instruct students to talk in breakout rooms and discuss the prompts written on the slide. *Tell them to use the language discussed in class. T will model example. T will send link so students can view the prompts as they talk in breakout rooms. T will ask if there are questions. T will send students to breakout rooms. T will listen to each breakout room and monitor, listen for errors to review in DEC, and be available for questions. T will bring them back when there are 5 minutes left of class.
T will ask some Ss to share what who they or their peers shared during freer practice. T will share screen and show sentences with errors. T will elicit corrections from the students. T will ask Ss if they have any questions.
