Unit 6, Part 3 Overview In part 3 of this unit, which can be completed in about 60 minutes of class time , students will talk about a variety of entertainment-related activities, including reading, watching TV, playing games, and using social media. They will see how easy it is to bring up many different topics using a few simple patterns of language. • Do you read a lot / watch a lot of TV / play any games / use social media? Like in parts 1 and 2, the Sounding Natural Note on page 89 helps students branch off into directions that are interesting to them via not using so many questions. The Guided Speaking Practice on page 90 models a six-turn no-questions sequence, and the Sounding Natural Note consists of a writing task to help students talk more about themselves. Finally, on page 91, all three parts of this unit are pulled together via the Listening Practice and Free Conversation tasks. Generic 90-minute Lesson Plan Things to bring: • Equipment for playing the textbook audio tracks • (optional) Handouts (vocab quiz, worksheets, etc) 1.
