In this stage I will tell students what I would do if I met a wild animal. I will use some second conditional sentences to provide a context for the grammar point. (If I saw a bear, I would climb the nearest tree!)

In this stage I will ask my students to tell the class what they would to if they ever met a wild animal.

In this stage I will write some of the sentences that my students have said on the board (in the correct form) to draw their attention to the target language

In this stage I will clarify the meaning by giving examples on the board and asking some CCQs (Are these situations real or imaginary? Imaginary - Do they talk about the past, present, or future? Present/Future - Can they really happen? No). After that I will elicit the structure from the students to clarify how to form the sentences (If + past simple, would + base verb). The form and contractions will be highlighted. The pronunciation of the contracted forms and the weak sound of “would” will be practiced in class.

The students are going to do exercise A on page 143 in the grammar bank in 4 minutes. They will have 2 minutes to check their answers in pairs and then we will check the answers with the whole class.

In this stage I will ask my students to talk in groups of four about what they would do in different situations with wild animals (for example, if they saw a bear or a shark). Then each group will share their most interesting or funniest idea with the class.
