Description

In this lesson, sts learn about the adverbs of frequency through a guided discovery based on listening tasks about food. The lesson starts with a brainstorming activity to set the context for sts. This is followed by listening tasks in which the TL is introduced. After that, there is a clarification of the MF, and P of the adverbs of frequency by using a marker sentence taken from the listening task. Finally sts are provided by a controlled practice, where they have to produce sentences using the TL, and a freer practice to check their understanding.
