Procedure (34-45 minutes)

Warmer/Lead-in (2-3 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

Set the context by asking SS if they have ever entered a competition. Ask them which competitions they know.

Use visual aids and repeat the target vocabulary. Contextualize it by giving CCQs: -Did you win a prize? -What prize did you win? etc

Clarification (8-10 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

I show adjective flashcards. SS do the choral drilling. SS match the words to the pictures. Then they do a word search puzzle. After that, they categorize the adjectives and give examples of them in phrases.

Controlled Practice (3-5 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice

SS look at the title of the article. Then they read the first paragraph. I ask CCQs about it.

Semi-Controlled Practice (8-10 minutes) • To concept check further and prepare students for free practice

I divide the class into groups A and B. I get As to read about Bruce and Bs about Sally. Then get SS to ask and answer the questions for this text with each other.

Free Practice (8-10 minutes) • To provide students with free practice of the target language

Get SS to talk about their traveling experience. Lead them with the written questions on the board: -Where did you go? -What did you do? -What did you like there? etc. SS work in pairs
