Main Aims

  • To provide gist and specific information listening practice using a text about what people look for in a car in the context of parts of a car

Subsidiary Aims

  • To provide fluency speaking practice giving advice in the context of driving

Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

Ask students if they drive. Ask them what they, or people they know, do to drive safely. Say sentences, and then ask students related yes/no questions. For example: You must wear a seat belt. Do you wear a seat belt? and You shouldn’t drive too fast. Do you drive fast? Have students answer in full sentences. For example: Yes, I wear a seat belt. No, I don’t drive too fast.

Pre-Reading/Listening (10-12 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible

Discuss the introductory questions as a class. Then direct students’ attention to the picture of the car.

While-Reading/Listening #1 (10-12 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist and specific information reading/listening tasks

Play the audio for the parts of a car. Have students listen and follow along, pointing to each part they hear.

Post-Reading/Listening (8-10 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

Ask comprehension questions to make sure that students understand what each part of the car is. For example, ask: When you are driving at night, what do you need to turn on? (headlights) What do you turn on if you want to turn left or right? (signal light) What do you turn on if it’s raining? (windshield wipers) Where can you put suitcases? (trunk) Where can you see if you need gas? (dashboard) What do you hold when you’re driving? (steering wheel) What do you put your foot on when you want the car to move? (gas pedal) What do you put your foot on when you want the car to stop? (brake pedal) Where can you keep important papers? (glove compartment) What should you wear to be safe? (seat belt) Where do you put the key? (ignition) Where can you see the cars behind you? (rearview mirror) What can help you if you’re lost? (GPS)
