Procedure (37-50 minutes)
Teacher will provide students with a Likes/Dislikes table and ask them to write what they like and hate. Then, Teacher will pair the students and ask them to switch their papers and ask each other "why" they like or dislike something. Teacher will monitor and if students mention about the words that will be taught in the next stages of the lesson, she will write them on down and then write all of them on the whiteboard.
Teacher will give students a handout with some images and statements (expressions-direct feelings) and causes (images or statements that cause the feelings) and ask them to write the emotions they are related with, whether it requires -ed or -ing form, depending on the relevant question in pairs in at most 10 minutes. Meanwhile, teacher monitors and takes notes. At the end of the activity teacher will give the A/K to the students.
Teacher will project the exercise on the board. This presentation will include the synonyms of the relevant words. Teacher will try to elicit the correct forms of the synonyms to fill the gaps on the board. Whenever teacher hears a correct answer from one of the students, she will point her/him so as him/her to say the answer again for the W/C and the teacher will write the answer on the board. After each new word said, teacher will drill the words if there is a problem with the word stress. Word stresses will be provided as such: ■ annoyed (adj.): /ənɔɪd/ ■ annoying (adj.): /ənɔɪɪŋ/ ■ exhausted (adj.): /ɪɡzɔːstɪd/ ■ exhausting (adj.): /ɪɡzɔːstɪŋ/ ■ disgusting (adj.): /dɪsɡʌstɪŋ/ ■ disgusted(adj.): /dɪsɡʌstɪd/ ■ embarrassing (adj.):/ɪmbærəsɪŋ/ ■ embarrassed (adj.): /ɪmbærəst/ ■ frightened (adj.) : /fraɪtnd/ ■ frightening(adj.): /fraɪtnɪŋ/ ■ shocking(adj.):/ʃɒkɪŋ/ shocked(adj.):/ʃɒkt/ ■ worried(adj.):/wʌrid/ ■ worrying(adj.):/wʌriɪŋ/ ■ satisfied(adj.):/sætɪsfaɪd/ ■ satisfying(adj.):/sætɪsfaɪɪŋ/ ■ confused(adj.):/kənfjuːzd/ ■ confusing(adj.):/kənfjuːzɪŋ/ ■ boring(adj.):/bɔːrɪŋ/ bored(adj.):/bɔːd/ ■ relaxing(adj.):/rɪlæksɪŋ/ ■ relaxed(adj.):/rɪlækst/
Students will be provided with H/Os with exercises on them. One of the exercises requires students to match the actions with the feelings. This exercise will be done by students as a solo exercise and students will be given only 5 minutes to complete it. Second exercise requires the students to circle the correct emotion according to the image provided. This exercise will also be done solo. During these exercises teacher will monitor and if she encounters any problems about students' answers, or if students have any questions, she will explain them while monitoring. After each of these 2 exercises, teacher will ask them to peer check their answers, and will give them the answer keys afterwards. If teacher encounters a common error about the exercises, she will try to explain the question or the concerned vocabulary to the W/C. This will allow the students to move to the next freer activity without any questions in their minds.
Teacher will pair the students to make them talk about how they feel when something happens. Students may have the 1st stage's likes/dislikes table with them if they have trouble remembering how they feel about things. Teacher will monitor and change the pairs so that everyone in the class may speak to one another. Because this is a task on accuracy in speaking and because the students are fluent enough, teacher may smoothly help students when they make errors or are stuck with the meanings while monitoring.
