Basic Grammar Sentences

Work in Pairs

Have your students work in pairs to complete the information gap. They’ll have to ask each other about where Heather and Scott are going to go next week and who they are going to go with.

Now Work Alone

When they are finished the pair work, have your students try the follow-up activity to review their writing skills for this structure. (Make sure they are not doing the follow-up activity and pair work activity at the same time. These are meant to be done separately.)

Listening

For this task you’ll need to tell the students about where
you’re going to go next week. Use the places from today’s lesson. To make the task more student-centered, have your students call out the questions. E.g., “Where are you going to go on Monday?”

“I’m going to go to the park.”

Group Work

Students walk around the class looking for people who are
going to do the things from the list. When they find someone
they should write their name in the blank space and then ask who they are going to go with. You should review the word

“alone” before beginning.

Where are you going to go this weekend? I’m going to go to the gym. Who are you going to go with? I’m going to go with Mark.

Teaching the Class (before the handouts)

Use the flashcards to elicit and check your students’ understanding of the vocabulary and target structures.

After you’ve gone over the vocabulary and target structures, hand out the worksheets. Write all the new words on the board and have your students copy them down on page 1. (They should write the new words below each image.) Then elicit the target structure and write the questions and answers on the board. Have students copy down the questions and answers on page 2.
