Procedure

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

I will ask some students "what's your name?". After hearing their answer, I will say "it's nice to meet you" and i will purposly write wrongly their name on the board by doing some mistake. I will ask if I wrote it correctly. They will try to correct it. Probably they will get some difficulties. So i will introduce the speaking activity about the 26 letters of the English alphabet. Emphasize the importance of knowing the English Alphabet in order to spell your name (when you are in a foreign country or interracting with a foreigner, it can be difficult for people understanding your name).

Exposure (8-10 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

Then, we will move on the Audio Track. Students should identify letters and their sounds by listening the track 4 (CD 1 ). While listening, they will read silently the speaking task number 4 (1 minute). Then, they will listen it again and repeat each letter one by one (2 minutes). Prununciation mistake will be corrected. At the end of this activity, we will pratice the alphabet thanks to the second Task. Ss will listen an read silently the dialogue. (1 minute) Then, we will listen again and pause after each line. Ss will listen en repeat. (2 minute).

Highlighting (2-4 minutes) • To draw students' attention to the target language
Clarification (8-10 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language
Controlled Practice (4-6 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice
Semi-Controlled Practice (2-4 minutes) • To concept check further and prepare students for free practice

I will ask Ss to go around the class with their notebooks and make a list of 4 of their classmates' names. At the end of the course I will ask them to present one of their classmates. They should use the form "her name is" / "his name is". I will write the list on the board.
