Procedure (34-42 minutes)
Students will look at a picture involving pollution and plastic. I will ask the students what items they had used that contained or were made from plastic.
Allow students to listen to the audio and answer questions about what the speaker has or hasn't done to help lower the usage of plastics.
Introduce Phrasal Verbs based on the audio and allow the students to make connections to those phrasal verbs they had listened to but didn't pay attention to in the gist activity to see if they can draw on the concept of the speaker and inferences for PV. Students will have work to complete on google forms/google slides in order to check understanding and work amongst themselves for small periods of allotted time.
Students will have questions and answers using the phrasal verbs in the lesson through a guided worksheet that they will answer and discuss amongst themselves.
Allow students to have questions with PV and have PV for an answer that they will then come up with for a natural, free conversation.
