1) Explain the words and the culture.

3) For the part “Now Your Turn” after each model, divide the class into pairs to do the exercises and then ask them to role-play the dialogs. Walk around the class and give help as needed. Encourage Ss to use their real names to act out their parts.

Useful Expressions

1) Explain to the students that items in the right column do not necessarily strictly match those in the left column.

2) Model how to do the exercises in this part. After the greeting or introduction, people usually talk about topics of general interests, such as the weather, local events, work or school. This is called small talk. These topics can be discussed easily without knowing the person well. They are very useful conversation starters.
