Procedure

Warmer/lead-In (5-7 minutes) • To set lesson context

First I will go for a short discussion with the sts, I will tell them that It takes me two hours to get to the ITI because I live far away. I will write on the WB the following example, highlighting the word "arrive at": "I leave home at 7:00AM and I arrive at 9:00AM" After that, I'll show them a picture of "train" and "express train" to tell the difference between them. Quickly introduce some new vocabulary that will help them understand the first example better.

Listen for meaning (9-13 minutes) • To provide practice of listening for gist and details

Play the track for the sts to listen to the conversation. Have a quick discussion about what they have listened to and have them find out what the problem is. Explain exercise 2 which is listening for details, by giving the first sentence as an example. Ask them to check in pairs, then get some feedback.

Group discussion (5-7 minutes) • To prepare the students for the grammar

I'll introduce the grammar by writing on the WB "My name is Takwa, I am a doctor." to elicit the negative "You aren't a doctor". I will give another example which is a picture of a very famous Turkish actor and write "He is German." again to elicit the negative"He isn't German, he is Turkish".

Practice Grammar (7-10 minutes) • To practice the present simple-negative

Give instructions and play the track. Have them correct the sentences individually, check their answers in pairs, then get some feedback.

Cards game (5-7 minutes) • To practice the present simple-negative

I will put the sts on groups of 3. Give them instructions. Hand them the cards and let them match. If they get a correct sentence they leave it as it is. If not, they put it in the negative form. I will walk behind them and check what they are doing. help them if necessary.

Practicing useful (4-6 minutes)

I will ask them to do ex 2 in pairs. I will walk behind them while they're answering the ex. Give them time and than check it with them. Finally I will have the sts practice the dialogue in pairs.
