Procedure (72-90 minutes)
At this stage we are going to work on A.M. and P.M. and play a game together by guessing Good Morning, Good Afternoon ,and Good Night.
At this stage the teacher is going to ask some questions including "Are you a morning person or an evening person?" and "What time do you usually get up?". Here the students can use their L2 and practice the grammar and A.M, P.M both in their sentence (eg. I usually get up at 9 a.m.)
This is the time to pre-teach some new words (key vocabulary) in the form of MPF from the listening that may they're new for the students. We can model and drill these words in the class before playing the audio.
The CB has given a question (Is Hannah a morning person? Why or Why not?) related to the listening which the students should work in pairs, listen to CD and find the answer at the end of the listening part. They also should find the reason for the question and then we can talk about it in the class together.
At this stage this is the time for CCQ. So the teacher asks some questions related to the Audio and the students answer them with all information which they remember from the listening part. Then they can listen to Audio again and repeat the questions chorally in the classroom in order to preparing themselves for a semi-controlled practice.
In their CB there is a questionnaire about a typical day which the students should work in pairs and ask those questions from each other. The main aim of this stage is speaking and the subsidiary aim is accuracy.
At the last stage I have provided a list of questions which the students should work in groups in order to find the morning people in the classroom. The groups are consisting of at least three people, so they have to check one person in other groups, ask them questions and at the end of their survey in the classroom they should go back to their group and make a list of morning people and evening people.
