I will give students handouts and introduce Andre with the pictures on the H/O. Ask class what he is doing. Then tell them that they will listen to Andre one time only in order to fill in the gaps. I will play recording a 1.60 one time. Students to check their answers in pairs. I will check the answers on the whiteboard using the projector while replaying the recording. I will write the verbs in a different color. I will read the verbs and students will repeat.
I will show the studets the handouts for exercise 1b. I will ask them to listen to the recording to complete the sentences in pairs "Listen to Andre's hobbies. Fill in the blanks" I will play recording 1.60 I will repeat the recording again because this exercise needs more than one listening so that students can write their answers. I will ask them to check their answers in pairs. I will check students' answers and see if they need any help. I will play the recording and pause on each sentence and elicit the answers from the students.
I will give handouts for exercise 2a to do it in pairs. Students will match the nouns with the pictures without listening to the recording. We will answer in the whole class.
