Procedure

Lead in (3-4 minutes) • Introduce the students to the topic

Show students your pictures of food. "These are my food today. Here is some meat, fruit, pasta and soup." Ask the students one bye one if they like the food. Take some open drill.

Pre-Listening (10-12 minutes) • To prepare students for the text with the lexis and chunks of the language

Tell that you have got 3 meals today. Show pictures and tell that they are your breakfast, lunch, and dinner. "I have 3 meals a day. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner." Ask a student: "Do you have 3 meals a day?" Drill the question and possible answers chorally for a few times, then take some open drill. Using the same technique, work on these sentences: "Do you eat fruit or vegetable every day?" (First, try to elicit the sentence. Don't readily say it.) "Does she eat meat or fish every day?" Continue with frequency adverbs and questions. "I eat fish on Sundays. So, I eat fish once a week. How often do you eat fish?" Take choral drill and open drill with different meals. Continue with "How often do you have a meal at a restaurant?". Go to the board. Draw the pictures and elicit the questions and answers again and write them on the wall. Elicit the linking words and stresses as well. Pairwork. Show the text to the students. Stundents guess the missing words.

While-Reading/Listening #1 (6-7 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist and specific information reading/listening tasks

Play the recording. Students listen and check in pairs. Elicit answers and take some WC.

While-Reading/Listening #2 (6-7 minutes) • To provide students with more challenging detailed listening tasks
