We will practice shops: chocolate shop, clothes store, electronics store, leather goods store, shoe store, stationary shop and tailor. Mark will ask you a question – Where would you go to buy…? (a box of chocolates, a camera, a pair of jeans, a pair of sneakers, a pen case, a suit, a table lamp, a wallet). We will also talk about good points and bad points about places around town, asking for suggestions, making suggestions and responding to suggestions. We will also practice a conversation about shopping. Collocation – Appointment. We will talk about words that go with appointment. For example: an important appointment, an urgent appointment, an initial appointment, a scheduled appointment, a business appointment, a dental appointment, a hair appointment … Plus much more. We will practice the Present Perfect Progressive Verb Tense – we use the present perfect progressive tense when action began in the past and has just stopped. Emphasis is length of time of an action. The pattern is as follows – have/has + been + base verb (infinitive) + ing We will do two listening activities – at a party. We will talk about Vietnam by doing matching and dictation activities.
