Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (3-5 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

I will start showing the learners a short video from the famous movie (Cast Away) to start eliciting the main idea from the learners to start creating a discussion and make them discuss in pairs if they ever got lost.

Pre-teach vocabulary. (6-8 minutes) • To prepare students for the text and make it accessible

I will start eliciting the target language (to be cut off from the world) from the video and write it down on the WB then try eliciting his feeling to reach the word (go mad). I will then start asking what they shall miss most to introduce the word pastry /pastries because just flashing it out as a word will be weird at the begging of the lesson so making it look like a list of things, we miss will make more sense till we take the handouts.

Reading for gist (5-7 minutes) • To provide students with less challenging gist and specific information reading/listening tasks

I will give the learners the handout in order to start with our first exercise(12c) and make them read quickly and match each person with the correct specification that defines him/her and make them check answers in pairs to assure they have the correct answer I will display the answer key on the ppt, then ask if there is any other person they identified.

Reading for details (10-15 minutes) • To provide students with more challenging detailed, deduction and inference reading/listening tasks

In this stage, I will make the learners read briefly in order to answer our second task (12D) and check answers in pairs before I start displaying the answers if I still have time I will ask them which character from the once they read their opinions do they think is close to them and why in order to get the learners ready for the freer practice which they will discuss in.

Freer practice (7-10 minutes) • To provide with an opportunity to respond to the text and expand on what they've learned

In this stage i will give them 2 min to think about 3 things they will miss most and 3 things they will miss least if they get stuck on an island then give them haphazard numbers to divide them into groups to start discussing the things they wrote down.
