Task: Students listen and answer: What are the top 3 pieces of advice? Which sounded the most serious? Quick class check. Instructor boards answers to compare.
Procedure: Play the clip again. Students complete Cornell-style notes: Left Column: Conditional phrases or advice Right Column: Situation it applies to Bottom: Summary of what to do in one emergency case
Procedure: Students use their notes to answer challenge questions in small groups: What would happen if the owner ignored the symptoms? What could you say if a dog swallowed a toy? Each group writes 2 new conditional advice sentences using real notes + imagination.
Procedure: Students fill a 3-cell grid: 1 thing they learned 1 conditional sentence from the clip 1 new vocabulary item Instructor collects 3–4 sentences from students to review and highlight grammar use.
