Use Google Slides to type the discussions of MAFP. Meaning: Quickly review the meaning of first by asking the students. 'When something happens but has never happened before.' Appropriacy: The majority of target phrases are neutral, but 'I was six years old at the time' could be made more informal. For example: 'When I was six...' or 'I was six when...'. Ask the students what sounds more formal and informal. Form: Students will break into groups and complete the Google Slides word scramble. (3 min). Regroup and have students explain the relationship between the adjective 'first; and the noun it describes. The word 'first' should always come directly before the noun it describes. Pronunciation: Have the students notice the linking of the Y and O in the phrase 'My first day of...'. Chorus the linking sound. Have the students notice the stress of the words 'NEVer', 'forGET', and 'reMEMber'. Have the students notice the waving intonation of the longer phrases: 'I'll never forget the first time...' 'I remember the first time...'
