Test #1 (8-10 minutes) • To gauge students' prior knowledge of the target language

* T gave Ss an exercise to match the adjective with its common noun then use these adjectives to answer the second exercise. *T gave clear instructions, " Match the adjectives with their common nouns. You have 2 minutes. Use these phrases to answer the next exercise" with extra 2 minutes *T gives a model. *T asks ICQs to check their understanding. ex: Are you going to match?

Teach (15-20 minutes) • To clarify areas of the target language where students had difficulty in the first test stage

*T will start his PPT again to clarify some problematic vocabulary. ex: 1) blue jeans /ˈbluː ˌdʒiːnz/ (Plural noun). 2)New York /ˌnuː ˈjɔːrk/ (Proper noun). 3)Pretty /ˈprɪt̬.i/ (Adjective for women, not men) 4)woman/ˈwʊm.ən/ (noun (C))(P. Women ) *T will ask Ss, "Why do we use adjectives?" *Some Ss will say," to describe things". * T will elicit the meaning of the adjectives from Ss. Meaning: Adjectives are parts of speech that tell more about nouns or describe them. *T will ask, "What are nouns?"(T will receive a lot of examples about nouns.) *T will write some words on the board and ask Ss whether they are nouns or not. *T clarifies that nouns can be people, things, animals, plants, or places. *T will write down 2 sentences and ask Ss which one is correct and why. *T gives Ss 30 seconds to think. Ex: It's a big house. It's a house big. *Form: T will accept Ss answers and clarify that adjectives come before nouns. Ex: That is an old car. adj. + n *T writes a sentence on the board and asks Ss to find the mistake. Ex: These are news jeans. * T clarifies that we can't add plural (s) to the adjectives. *T asks Ss if they think that adjectives are important in the sentence. Why? *Pronunciation(sentence stress): T clarifies that adjectives visualize the sentence and give taste to the sentence, so adjective is a very important part so I have to focus on it(Stress) She's a pretty woman. She's got red hair. *So, adjectives are important parts of speech we stress them. *T will summarize the most important points using some CCQs. ex: Do adjectives describe nouns? Yes What are nouns? people, places, things, animals, and plants Do adjectives come before or after nouns? Before nouns Can I add the plural (s) to the adjectives? No Are adjectives stressed in the sentences? Yes Can I use more than one adjective for the same noun? Yes. For example, she's a pretty tall thin woman, with red long curly hair.

Test #2 (8-10 minutes) • Check students' use of the target language again and compare with the first test

* T will give Ss an exercise to answer individually and then check their answers with their partners in the breakout rooms. * T gives clear instructions. You need your notebook for this exercise. Are these sentences correct or wrong? Correct the sentence if you decide that is wrong. You have 3 minutes to answer then another 3 minutes in the breakout rooms. *T asks some ICQs. Are they all wrong? no Do you need to correct the wrong ones? yes How many minutes do you have? 3 + 3 *T monitors the breakout rooms. *T gives the whole class feedback focusing on the problematic sentences. *T asks some Ss to answer some sentences. *T provides the answer key.
