Procedure (32-45 minutes)
T personalizes and sets the context. T elicits the name of food by asking, 'what do you usually for lunch'. What do you have to drink? T will give the students a chance to respond. T will also ask: where do you have lunch? Prompting with visuals if necessary. During this stage, T will also introduce the TL, for example, 'I always have' - 'do you always have - or sometimes, - usually etc?.
T will say: I want you to listen. 4 people talk about their lunch. Who says these things? Person 1, person 2, person 3 or person 4. I want you to listen and write the number. T ICQs, do I want you to listen and write? Are you writing number or name? T confirms that audio will only be played once and gives the students a minute to read the questions. T will play once, and ask students to discuss in pairs and then self check answers.
T will say: I want you to listen again and fill in the gaps. I want you to listen and write. T will play twice (possibly three times). T will ask students to self check their answers against the script (read and check), check with partners and then take WC feedback.
T will put the class into groups of 4. T will provide each team with a pre cut cards and ask them to put the card in the correct order to makes sentences relating to the TL. While the students are doing this, T will draw a straight line down the board from 0% to 100%. T will monitor the students to see how they are progressing with task. Once done, T will ask the students to stick the sentences in the right place on the board. This activity will expose any confusion over meaning and form, which T will then clarify. T will conduct a pronunciation drill.
T will demonstrate exercise 2a and then ask the students to read the sentences and to make them true to themselves: read and write your answers. T will then ask them to talk in pairs, do they have same or different? T will then take some WC feedback.
T will first ensure that the students are familiar with the key vocabulary in the exercise, by WC elicitation. T will then demonstrate the task with a student. T will then ask provide students with the exercise sheet and ask them stand and talk with their friends. T will monitor.
Should time allow, T will ask students to read and tick what is true (In the USA - p51). T will ask students to talk about their answers with their partners before self check and WC feedback.
