Stage notes

1. Warm-up (5 min)

Ask: Who’s your favourite singer or actor? Do you like pop music? Point at the photo on page 14 and ask what he is doing.
Pre-teach awesome (= very, very good). Say it with a big smile so it sticks.

2. Video, Part 1 (5 min)

Only one question: is Lee a big fan of Bro? Play the video once. Ask the student to say how they know.

3. Dialogue (8 min)

Read the dialogue in pairs (you and the student), then swap roles.
Task 4 focuses on five natural phrases from the “Out of class” box. Then the student re-acts the dialogue using their own favourite singer instead of Bro.

4. Grammar discovery (8 min)

Let the student find the questions in the dialogue first (Task 5), then complete the rules (Task 6). Ask: what happens to the verb after does? Stress that there is no -s after does.
Pronunciation: does /dʌz/, doesn’t /ˈdʌznt/. Yes/no questions go up in intonation.

5. Controlled practice (8 min)

Task 8: the student finds Bro’s answers in the dialogue.
Task 9 is Exercise 5 in the book. The student writes the six questions, then watches or listens to Part 2 and writes the answers. If time is short, do the questions now and the answers for homework.

6. Speaking (9 min)

Task 10 (Exercise 6 in the book): interview about a favourite actor or pop star. Task 11 (“And You”, Exercise 7): ask about the activities and write down the answers.
Finish with Who am I? (Task 12): the student picks a job card, and you ask yes/no questions to guess it. Then swap roles.

7. Wrap-up (2 min)

Exit ticket: three questions, one with Do, one with Does, one with How often. Then the self-check. Give the optional homework.
