Procedure (34-40 minutes)
I will show them a picture which includes some personal possessions and let them in pairs to discuss what they see in the picture. Then, I will elicit the words from the students and I will start to use the prepositions of place. "Yes, there is a chair behind the table / Yes there is a bag next to the table."
I will give them a matching task which will be good for the students who understand better with visuals. (ICQs: Are you going to do it alone?Yes! Are you going to circle the pictures or match? Match!) FB: On the board, I will put the pictures. When they've finished, they will check with their partners. Then, I will ask some of them to put the sentences on the pictures. CCQs: for in/on. I will put something in my bag and ask them where is....? then I will put something on the table and ask again where is.....?
I will give them handouts to rearrange the sentences. (PW) ICQs: Are you going to work alone? No! Are you going to write sentences? Yes! FB: I will do monitoring and I will write some correct and wrong answers on the board. Then, we will discuss the sentences as whole class Back chaining: "The jacket is on the chair."
I will give them a Gap-Fill handout to fill the gaps with prepositions from the picture. ICQs: Are you going to write the all sentence? No! FB: peer-checking, answer key + if necessary, I will do the error correction on the board
Students will work in pairs and some of them will ask questions (Where is/are......?) to find the items places and draw them to complete their pictures. Some of them will describe where the items are. ICQs: Are you going to show your picture to your partner? No! Do a demo! FB: monitoring and error corrections
This time, I will give them a picture of a chair and a table. Also some sentences , they will read the sentences with their partners and stick the sentences on the correct places in the picture. FB: checking on the board.
I will tell them Put your hands on your head. Put your hands behind your back. Put your hands in front of you. Put your hands under the chair. Put your hands next to you. Put your hands in your pocket.
