Step 1 Revision

1 Check the homework exercises.

2 Get Ss to work in groups of four and tell the story of the previous lesson. One S pretends to be the writer Alex Haley telling the story of his search for his roots. The other three Ss may interrupt and ask as many questions as they like. The S who is Haley may invent any details which are necessary in order to reply to the questions. Demonstrate this activity with one group in front of the class first.

Step 2 Grammar study

study section with the class, getting students to translate the sentences. Do not spend time revising the simpler structures, as students should know these. Draw attention to any difficult points suggested below. If students have difficulty, do not spend too much time explaining. Instead, prepare a short revision exercise and produce it in class when you revise the grammatical category in the next lesson.

6 Point out the structure (emphatic use of it )

It is/was + the emphasized part + that/who ….

7 Point out that with people you can use who(m) or that.
