© onestopenglish and Philip Borrell 2003 Taken from the lessonshare competition in www.onestopenglish.com 1 Bargaining Aims : To present common verb / noun collocations related to household activities. To present and provide speaking practice in using the first conditional for bargaining / negotiating Procedure 1. Give students (in pairs) the upper half of the mix 8n 9 match verb / noun sheet (page 2).

For feedback, give each pair the lower half (answer) sheet. 2. Give students practice in recalling the verb / noun collocations.

Initiate a practice sequence as follows; " Teacher calls out a noun 3 students respond with correct verb. " Teacher asks a student to call out a noun 3 other students respond with verb. " Students continue doing this in pairs (Ss cover the mix 8n 9 match sheet).

3. Elicit the short dialogue on page 3 (use pictures to elicit the target language) onto the board. Drill for weak form in 8could you.. 9.

Also drill for 8I 9ll 9, as well as for intonation features (e.g. rising tone on 8Could you.. 9 question, and the rising / falling sequence on the conditional sentence). 4.

Give out the handout on page 3. Use the prompts at the bottom to ... more. less.

initiate an open / closed pairs practice sequence. 5.<br><br> Demonstrate the card game with 3 strong students while other students gather round and watch. (before the lesson, photocopy page 4 twice and cut into cards for each group of 4 3 5 students) " the aim is to collect as many exact pairs of cards as you can " the cards are shuffled and dealt out to all the players " players put exact pairs of cards on the table in front of them " the game is played using the dialogue in the previous activity (No. 4 above) " the first student tries to get the pair for a card in his / her hand.<br><br> S/he can ask any other player to do something for them, saying 8(Name), could you&.? 9 " If the player that is asked doesn 9t have that item on any of his / her cards, s/he says, 8Sorry, I 9m busy! 9 , and the turn ends. If the player has that item, s/he then says the first conditional sentence using the other half of the card (as per the dialogue) " If the first player doesn 9t have that exact card, s/he says, 8Sorry, I 9m busy! 9 , and the turn ends. If s/he does have that exact card, s/he says 8Ok, it 9s a deal! 9 , and receives that card from the other player and places the pair on the table.<br><br> " The student to the right of the first student then has a turn 3 s/he can ask anyone at the table to do something for them, and so on. Notes on the Game : In the demonstration, try to make the students aware that, even if they are not involved in the dialogue, listening to what happens will give them information that helps them to win pairs when their turn comes. Also, it helps in the demonstration if you lay 8near 9 matches out on the table so that students fully understand.<br><br> As always, a good demonstration ensures the students understand what to do. © onestopenglish and Philip Borrell 2003 Taken from the lessonshare competition in www.onestopenglish.com 2 Bargaining Match the verbs on the left with the items on right. the kitchen the washing up the bathroom clean the ironing make the bed sweep my homework answer the window do the door vacuum a cup of tea close the carpet the floor the shopping the telephone ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bargaining Match the verbs on the left with the items on right.<br><br> the kitchen the washing up the bathroom clean the ironing make the bed sweep my homework answer the window do the door vacuum a cup of tea close the carpet the floor the shopping the telephone © onestopenglish and Philip Borrell 2003 Taken from the lessonshare competition in www.onestopenglish.com 3 Bargaining Ann: Could you make me a cup of tea, please?
