In this lesson, students develop their conversational skills in the context of celebrating special occasions. The students start by discussing the photos to establish the topic and then discuss a set of prompts. They then identify special occasions and complete a speaking task to personalize and practice the language and then match sentences to complete a set of related collocations. The students then hear the language by listening to an interview about special occasions and completing a comprehension task. They finish the lesson by consolidating and personalizing the language from the lesson by completing a student-centered communicative task on the same topic (by Victoria Aitken).
