Post-Reading (4-6 minutes) • To provide an opportunity to check their answers and respond to the text

I will divide the class into groups of two and ask them to check their answers with their group mate by writing YES/NO in their private chat. I will also answer the first question. ICQ: .Do you check alone or in groups? After checking the pairs, I will ask the students one by one to give full answers to the questions, examples: Yes he does/No I don't. At last I will move on to an image with different activities or hobbies shown in it.
