Tell the Ss what they remember about Ed and Cho. write two model sentences : Cho was working in the supermarket, when he met Ed." Cho and Ed were walking in a very beautiful part of forest when they saw a hostile tribe. Each sentence has some conceptual errors not grammatical so they should correct them. Look at the sentences.

Highlighting (4-4 minutes) • To draw students' attention to the target language
