In pairs, ask Ss to discuss and find out the common word in Group A in Ex.1. Elicit the answers from the Ss. In pairs ask Ss to place the words in Group A in Ex.1 into the correct type and discuss why it should be in Type A or Type B.

Tell Ss that there is the idea of two types of culture: Culture with a capital C and culture of a small c. Ask Ss to write two questions about their culture: One question from Type A and one from Type B. Tell them to write at least one subject/object question. Monitor to check the Ss are on task and note errors and gaps in their language for the language feedback stage. In pairs, ask Ss to compare their questions and correct them if there are any mistakes. Tell them to ask and answer their questions each other and encourage them to ask further questions. E.g. Who wrote Hamlet? - Shakespeare wrote it. What else did he write? - Romeo and Juliet. Monitor to check the Ss are on task and note errors and gaps in their language for the language feedback stage.

Productive Task(s) (18-20 minutes) • To provide an opportunity to practice target productive skills
