19th January

During this session we mainly talked about our future plans.
To start with, we looked for someone in the class who did the lottery every week, played board games or liked playing cards,etc...
After that, we looked at a photograph of a couple in the photocopies and described it. Then, we read about them and found out that they'd won the lotto.
We discussed about their possible future plans and then we checked if we were right by listening to a radio interview (audio 10.1). At the same time, we had to tick some expressions in the photocopy which referred to the couple's plans.
After that, we learnt about the grammar point: be going to and would like to.

be going to = used when you have a definite plan
would like to= when you want to do something or you don't have a definite plan.

We continued the class studying new vocabulary about plans. We had to complete some collocations with the correct verbal expression.

To consolidate this point, the students had to talked to some people in the class about their plans for this weekend, next week and next year.

We finished the session dealing with a new grammatical point: modals of possibility  or probability (might, will).

Homework:
Grammar exercise 10.1 (going to, would like to)
Vocabulary- plans (add a new phrase to collocations in ex. 4A)
Composition- (talk about your plans for the future and about your classmates')
