I will ask students what changes Maria has seen in her life and what she's been doing recently by calling on a few separate students. This will be an easy way to get students to think about the lesson ahead.

I will ask students what they remember about Dina's lesson on Tuesday to elicit ideas about present perfect continuous. I will ask them if they know that present perfect simple describes actions which have finished and PPC gives the idea that something is unfinished {I won't phrase it this way, I will simply ask "What's the difference between PPS and PPC?"}.

I will put the students into groups of three. I will give them the first HO of sample sentences and they will match them with the correct verb forms {PPC or PPS}. I will label 2 different columns on the whiteboard and in other parts of the room titled "Present Perfect Continuous" and "Present Perfect Simple". The groups will work together to understand the meaning of each sentence and will stick the sentences in their respective columns. I will monitor but not interfere with the students. If I find any mistakes I will mention something to them but I won't correct them just yet. As students finish, I will get them to check to see if the other groups have the same answers. I will give them the grammar box answer key to check their answers at the end and deal with any questions they might have.

I will have the students read the example sentences and ask them who they think wrote it and what they were planning on doing. I'll tell them at first not to worry about the gaps so they will put their pens down. Once the students read the examples I will get some feedback from them to make sure they understand the sentences. I'll then put the students into pairs and get them to work together to find out if the verbs in the gaps are present perfect simple or present perfect continuous and also have them put the words in the correct form. For feed back get Ss who finish early to write their answers on the board. To check the answers make an answer key.

İ will recap some ideas of what people do to prepare for a party and refer to the story about Maria. İ will ask the students to pair or get in groups and discuss what is happening in the picture/what have they been doing. İ will tell the students to choose one secretary to write all the sentences they can think of. Each group will compete to see who can write the most sentences. This will have a strict time limit of 3 mins. When time is up the students will have other groups check their papers. İ will deal with any questions and the winner will be chosen.

İ will ask students about the changes in their lifetime and elicit a few ideas. İ will divide the students into 2 groups ; A and B (maybe A1, A2, B1, and B2 if needed). İ will ask students to discuss amongst their group about how things have change. İ will give them The small squares of the speaking exercises. İ will monitor but not interfere and make notes of theire mistakes.

Regroup Ss and ask them to talk about what they talked about previously. İf time is too short get a representative from each group to tell the class what they talked about. İf there is even more time point out and write some of the errors you heard on the white board.
