Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

- Teacher asks students to choose ONE destination abroad to go to if they had 10.000 TND. "Imagine you have 10.000 TND" - Teacher gives them small sheets to write on. - After writing their destinations, students will fold their papers carefully and put them in a small box. (for later)

Exposure (8-10 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a listening.

a) - Teacher pre-teaches "to fly" and "sights" --> Imagine you're a tourist in Paris, what is the first thing you want to see? showing students the Eiffel Tower picture as the most popular sight in Paris. --> How can we get to France from Tunisia? we take the plane = we fly to b) - Teacher asks students to choose one sheet from the box and to check their new destinations. "What do you think of your new destination?" c) - The listening context: teacher tells students that there is a real TV programme that does the same thing. (changing people's holiday plans) - Ss will then listen to a dialogue with a couple and find out about their holiday plans. "What are Lisa and Jon's holiday plans?" - Teacher feedback - Ss are given the dialogue to fill in with the missing words when listening for the second time. (T helps in the first two who will stop the recording at each) - Pair check - Answer key: PPT

Language Clarification (10-12 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

a) highlighting: - Teacher tells students to highlight (be) going to in the dialogue. - In pairs students check each other's HO. - Ss can check if they underlined all of them with the answer key. b) clarifying - Teacher highlights two setences "Where are you going to stay?" "We're going to New York." - Meaning check using CCQs - Drilling - HIghlighting the form - Students will then finish the negative and the Yes/no questions - Drilling - Grammar rule

Controlled Practice (6-8 minutes) • To provide practice of the target language

- Teacher gives students HO2 - the first two will be done together with the class - Pair check - Answer key

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

- Teacher gathers the ss around to demonstrate how the game works.
