Imagine you were asked by your school-based mentor to stand in for them to ‘cover’ (Student’s Book - Module 3, Unit 5 - Grammar Hub). The page focuses on the modals must and have to. The students are teenagers at an intermediate level. Work towards the lesson aims (see below), while delaying the explicit focus on grammar as much as possible. You can supplement or deviate altogether from the way grammar is dealt with on that page of the course book. Your task is to encourage communication as much as possible, i.e. to supply a focus on form/meaning (vs. focus on forms).
Lesson aims:
to get students to use the verbs ‘must’ and ‘have to’ in communicative contexts, in speaking and in writing to offer opportunities for collaboration to offer opportunities for personalized learning to invite students to create fantasy worlds of their own Logistics:
Create a collaborative document to add your lesson planning notes to and add it before starting work on it, so Elena can follow groups’ progress.
