MF: I show the slide of school of Athena and one sentence from the Listening of previous lesson. "In ancient Greece people in formal education were thought rhetoric and little else." T elicit the form and meaning of the grammar from Ss.

T ask following question to complete the eliciting the F of the TL. 1- What is the form of the sentence? Passive 2- What is the tense? past 3- How do we know? 'To be' verb shows us. -----were------ 4- How do we form a sentence in English? Subj+verb+obj+CC 5- How do we form a passive sentence? Subj (former obj) + to be+p.p.+ (by+former subj) + CC T shows the slide with the formula on the WB. CCQ: 1- In a passive form; is subject/doer/agent important? No

T elicit the information Ss already know about the TL. 1- When do we use passive form? when the Subj is not important 2- Can you think of any other reason to use the passive form? Ss contemplate over the answer. T shows a slide. There are other reasons for using the passive form. - to avoid responsibility - the subj/obj is known to everyone - the subj/obj is unknown CCQ: 1- DO we use passive form JUST when the subject of the sentence is not important? No

T asks Ss to quickly read the sentences that they wrote on previous activity and decide the reason to use passive form for each sentences. T does the first one as demo: 1- The action is more important than the subject Ss can check their answers with the answer key on the WB 1- avoid 2- Unknown subject 3- Action is more important

T asks Ss to watch a very short video by MLK - 1'.25" and write the passive verbs he uses in his speech. Answers: 1- All men are created equal... 2- ...will be transformed to an oasis of freedom & ... 3- ...they will not be judged.... T asks Ss what would be the reason that any great speech uses the passive form. Ss give their ideas. T shows anew slide on WB with 4 topics and asks students to sit in group. T explains that each group needs to choose one topic and write a 2 minutes speech. ICQ: 1- What are you going to write? a speech 2- How many minutes speech? 2 minutes - a short one 3- In the group or individually? In the group T gives them enough of time and monitors them remotely and writes notes.

After they have finished writing their speech, T asks them to discuss it in their group and if there is a student who is comfortable to give the speech to WC and time allows, T asks him/her to do so. Otherwise they try to practise the speech in their own group and teacher listens to each group and corrects the TL errors.
