And writes all those words on the board.

Pre-Reading (10 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible

To check if Ss have understood the vocabulary from the context, T gives HO1 and Ss match the pictures with the words and T models some of the words and drills them and shows the stress. T also shows the same stress patterns. Then this time it is Ss' turn and each student has 1 minute to think and take small notes HO2 to guide them and they will talk about their favourite dish for 2 minutes. Then T posts 3 pictures of street food which they will be reading about in the text. T- groups Ss ( 3 students for each group) and asks them to visit each picture and talk about the questions; " Have you ever tried these type of street food? Would you like to try it? Why or why not?" Student spend 1 minute to speak for each picture. T chceks the time. If there isn't enough time T changes this activity. T gives 3 pictures of street food to the pairs. Students discuss the questions: " Have you ever tried these type of street food? Which one would you like to try it? Why or why not?"

While-Reading/ #1 (6 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist
