The teacher projects a set of sentences from Evolve 4 Digital Workbook Unit 7.3. She reads the first part of each short conversation aloud and asks a student to choose the correct response from the given options, reinforcing the use of expressions related to recounting conversations, news and stories.

The teacher chooses three students to role-play a conversation on the spot using the prompt from Evolve 4 Digital Workbook Unit 7.3.

Students are given 5 minutes to reflect on a true clinical story they’ve experienced, something surprising, funny, or strange involving a patient, client, or clinical procedure. They are encouraged to jot down a brief outline and choose at least 3–4 expressions they plan to use. In the main task (15 minutes), students work in pairs to tell each other their stories. While one speaks, the other listens actively, asks questions, and then takes a turn. Each student is also encouraged to “lose their train of thought” intentionally once, and then recover using the appropriate expressions.

To wrap up, a short class-wide reflection allows students to discuss which expressions felt most useful or natural, and to share particularly entertaining or surprising stories with the group. The teacher provides feedback on pronunciation, fluency, and interactional strategies.
