Description

In this lesson learners will focus on receptive skills of reading and as sub skills reading for gist, detailed and specific information.

In the pre-reading stage, the students learn new vocabulary with the ECDW method, T uses pictures to elicit, she drills and shows the stress on the board. At first, in exercise 2A the Ss read the introduction for gist and the teacher elicits the answer as a whole class feedback. After that, the Ss work in pairs to find the questions with the words given (ex. 2B). While monitoring, the teacher helps the Ss if needed. In exercise 3A, the Ss read the text for specific information and then they check their answers in pairs. The teacher elicits the answers from the Ss. The while-reading stage ends with reading for detailed information (ex. 3B). The teacher shows correct answers on the board and asks the Ss check their answers. At the end of the lesson, there is a freer speaking activity. The teacher takes notes for delayed FB. Skills lesson will be provided in the context of travels.
