In this stage i will show some pictures of my self doing the things that i talked about. i will make the first sentence and i want students to make other sentences about the pictures and i will write the sentences on the board to draw their attention toTL.
In this stage i will clarify the meaning by drawing a timeline on the board and asking some CCQs like: Are these sentences about the past, present or future? future Is it planned for the future? yes Can i use exact time in this grammar? yes which form of the verb can be used in this grammar? The base form after that i will elicit the structure to clarify how to form the sentences: Subj+ (to be verb)+ be going to+ verb( base form). i will elicit the negative and question form structure too. pronunciation will be drilled in the class by repeating the sentences with students.
The students are going to do the first five exercises of 3A on page 131 in the grammar bank. i will give them 2 minutes then we will check the answers together.
In this stage i will tell the students that im going to invite them to my party so i will ask them what are they going to do in that party and we will talk about their plans for the party. First they have to talk about it in groups of 4 then they will tell their plans to whole class.
