Procedure

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

Highlighting (2-4 minutes) • To draw students' attention to the target language

* Ss decide if "Open the door!" is polite or rude. They figure out how it can be a (polite) request in pairs. T FB by the help of CCQs.

Clarification (8-10 minutes) • To clarify the meaning, form and pronunciation of the target language

* As two groups Ss elicit the sentences in which people are making requests and their responds from the paragraphs on the walls, then write them on the board. * The group which can write more sentences wins. * Sts categorise them in their group. T. gives FB (answer key). * Ss decide the answers agreeing to the request and not agreeing. FB answer key. * Ss notice the difference between polite and rude intonation. Then they listen and repeat.

Controlled Practice (8-10 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice

When they can no longer think of any more requests associated with that picture they shout "we are done" the round is over. The group who can make more requests on a picture, scores.
