Start the class by introducing the topic (New Year's celebrations) and ask the students how they celebrated New Year's last year. This way, the students will already know what will be discussed in today's class and can participate by sharing their experiences

Share the Google forms document in the class chat. The first activity is listening; students will need to complete each text with the correct verb form while listening to the audio (track 4.5). The audio will be played a second time, in case any student hasn't completed the activity yet. If the activity isn't completed with either audio, the text is transcribed in Google Slides. Conduct Open Class Feedback (OCFB) to address any doubts and review answers.

Share the Google Slides document. On pages 4, 5, and 6, we will cover MFP (Meaning, Form, Pronunciation). This section will explain the correct way to use -ing verbs to form sentences or questions. The formula is: subject + am/is/are + verb-ing + future arrangement. It will be explained visually with a timeline and a table demonstrating the correct way to form sentences. Students will then have to complete sentences using the following verbs: (see), (fly), (drive), ( leave), ( arrive).

For controlled practice, students will complete an activity from page 37 of the book, but they will do it in Google Forms. They will need to complete sentences using the verbs: cooking, having, doing, meeting, taking. There are 8 sentences; this activity will help them practice. Answers: a) going b) doing. c) meeting. d) going. e) having. f) cooking, having g) taking h) going.

For free practice, I'm going to ask the students a question ('What are you doing on Christmas Eve?') and show them a slide with various images of different things and activities. Students need to think of sentences using the verbs we've seen during the class and share them with the class. E.g., 'My husband is bringing games,' 'My aunt is bringing food,' 'My cousin is buying wine,' etc.
