Procedure (34-45 minutes)
Ss do the ex-1 and complete the chart scanning the text about olympic games. Before they do that, T shows them the first example on WB. They need to be careful about the tenses of the sentences. Then Ss check their answers with a partner. Then I nominate them to come to the WB and write their answers
T highlights the meanings of the sentences Ss wrote on the WB. T asks CCQs: Do we know who did the job? no Is it important who did it? no. Which one are we interested in: what happened or who did it? what happened. Elicit the form from Ss and write on the board. T models and drills the pronunciation. T writes on WB 'The competition was won ______ Louise Crandal' and elicit 'by' from Ss. Then T shows them an example of a question sentence. Where were the first modern Olympics held in 1896? The first modern Olympics were held in Athens.
After they see the questions froms, Ss do the ex-2 and decide whether the sentences are active or passive. Then they write answers to these questions using the answers in ex-3 with a partner. T monitors and helps them when necessary. T projects the answers on WB, ss check and T highlight any mistake if there is.
Each student will write two question sentences in passive about the sports activities in Turkey or all around the world. T helps them to write their questions. Then they ask to their friends and others try to answer. They change turns in pairs/groups. T monitors them and notes down mistakes If they make, then Ss self correct them. T clarifies.
