Procedure

Lead in (2-3 minutes) • to set the context for the reading text

Blocking Vocabulary (6-7 minutes) • Clarify blocking vocabulary for better undertsanding of the text

"I will now give you a HO. You have 5-6 minutes to complete the exercises. You can work with your group." ICQ's: Do you work alone or with your group? 5 minutes later T gives answer key for Ss to check their answers

Read for gist (7-8 minutes) • students will read to understand the general idea of the text

"I will give you a reading text. You have 5 minutes to read the text. I will then ask you questions about the text." Once Ss have read the text, the teacher asks the following questions: 1. What is Imagined Ugly Syndrome? 2. Who suffers from it? 3. Why do they suffer from it?

Reading for detail (15-20 minutes) • intensive reading to fill in the gaps with the correct name

"You now have 10-15 minutes to read the text and answer these questions. You will write the name of the celebrity that the sentence describes." "You can work with a partner." WCFB
