T projects a question: "Which ideas do they discuss to reduce their carbon footprint? Ss listen to the audio. The audio is played once. Ss share their ideas.
T is going to project a text from the audio with some missing elements. Students need to choose an option from the box to fill in the text. T is going to ask "What are these phrases?", "What do they refer to?"
T is going to project 4 categories: "giving yourself time to think", clarifying your position", "giving the opposite opinion", and "giving opinions" T is going to ask which TL options go in each category to convey meaning. Then, T is going to pronounce the TL. T is going to ask where is the stress in the phrase. T asks students to choral drill each one. T asks a couple of specific students to drill.
T is going to present a multiple-choice Google Forms task for ss' to do individually. After they finish they will go to breakout rooms to compare their answers for 3 minutes. Once they come back, T checks their answers.
T is going to project some topics for ss' to choose: "public transport", the fast-food industry", and "recycling". Ss' are going to discuss and give opinions in pairs (BO rooms) about the chosen topic using the TL.
T reviews 3-5 sentences with ss about some errors and good use of the language heard during the last stage. "Are these sentences correct?", "How would you say this?" T asks if there are any questions left. If there are, T addresses them. T thanks Ss for their time.
