TP3 - Reading (My Perfect Weekend)
Elementary, A1 level

Description

In this lesson SS will practice skimming for the gist by reading just the introduction part quickly, scanning for specific details via T/F activity and reading for details by JigSaw activity for applying the essentials of receptive skill which is reading. To achieve the sub aim of the lesson, post-reading practice will be a productive skill which is speaking. In order to manage it, SS will talk about their weekend activities using the target structure (like+Ving) and related vocabulary(that they have seen in the previous lesson and recycled in the first exercise of this lesson) in a real life context via guess who game.
