Prediction. Ss will see two pictures. Students will be asked what do they see in the pictures. There are traffic problems because of snow in the first one. In the second one trains have been cancelled because of heavy snow. Some questions to motivate the topic might be: Does it snow in your country? Are there problems when it snows? What problems? What weather issues does your country have?

M&F: Screen share slide Ss will have to match words to meanings. Ask one or two CCQs from TLAS: Traffic Jam: A situation in which a long line of vehicles cannot move or move very slowly. Do cars move fast in a traffic jam? Can we find traffic jams after heavy rains? Journey: The act of travelling from one place to the other. Is a journey to Cuernavaca faster by bus or by car?

Pronunciation: Ask how many syllables each word has. Let Ss guess where the word is stressed. Traffic- Two syllabes. Stress: First syllable. Jam: one syllable. Journey- Two syllabes. Stress: First syllable Normal: Two syllabes. Stress: First syllable. Day: one syllable Tube: One syllable. Stress is placed on the vowel sound. Drill chorally and individually.
