1 . How many parts are there in the description ? What are they ?
2 . What does the first part tell you ?
3 . What information does the second part give you ?
4 . What language items should you pay attention to in the second part ? Underline them .
5 . What does the last part tell you ?
 Dried Other 5 % Uses of Apples,USA
 3 %	
 Frozen
 2%
 Canned	Fresh Fruit
 12 %	60 %
 Juice
 18 %
The graph shows the chief of the apple crop in the US . Overall , the bulk of the harvest in either eaten fresh or made into juice .
The biggest sline of the pie – chart is taken up by fresh fruit . About 60% of the crop is eaten fresh . This is three time as much as the next use , which is for juice . Less than 20% of apples in the US are turned into apple juice . A further 12% is canned , and a total of 5 % is either frozen or dried . Other remaining uses , such as apple vinegar , accout for just 5% of the crop .
It’s clear that although a small amount of apple are processed onto frozen , dried or canned products most of the crop is sold straight from the tree 
- T elicists the answers from the whole class , focusing on the remarkable characteristics of the decription . T can base his / her explanation on the following notes :
1 . There are three parts in the description of a chart introduction , body and conclusion .
- Introduction should desribe what the chart ia about , it’s date location , abd say what overall trends you see .
- Body should describe the most important trends , while all information is summarized to avoid unecessary details . Notice how many distinctive features diagram has .
Important ! You need to write about all the periods of time and all the subjects of graph . Remember , summarizing doesn’t mean throwing away information . The sesret here is to select what’s important , organize it , compare and contrst .
- Conclusion shoud sum up the global trens show on the figure and compare them if possible 
2 . Language use :
- The language and tructures are given in the book .
- Other language items :
+ make up less than ... percent ,
+ the most up + adj , the second most + adj ,

+ What does the pie chart show ?
+ What is the general trend of the chart ?
+ Which region has the smallest population ?

- T checks the answers with the whole class .
- Then Ss work individual to wtite the description of the pie chart , using the sentence given in the book to bigin their description .
- T goes aroud to observe and offer help .
Sample writing 
The pie chart shows the distribution of the wold population by rebion . Overall , more than half of the world’s population lives in South and East Asia .
Sputh Asia is the biggest region , making up 32% of the world population . The second largest area is East Asia with 6% less than South Asia . Europe ranks third with 15% . Coming next is Africa with 11% . Together , Latin America and North America have 14% of the wold population . Finally , Oceania is the least populated region with the smallest percentage of 2%.

Distinguishing sounds 
- T models the clusters / kl/, /gl/ ,/gr/ ,and /kw/ for a few times and explains how to produre /k/ first and then quickly switch to /l/ and so on

If many Ss do not pronounce the words correctly, T may want to get them to repeat after the tape (or him/herself) again in chorus and then individually.
Practising the dialogue containing the target sounds

GRAMMAR 
1 . Revision of condotional sentences (type 1 , 2 and 3 ) 
a. Presentation 
- T elicits the from and use of coditional sentences (type 1, 2 and 3 ) from Ss . If necessary T may give Ss the following handout 
Type 
Form 
Use 
1 
If + simplepresent will future 
In these sentences , the times is the present or future and the situation is real . They refer to a possible condition and its probable result 
Example :
+ If find her address , I’ll send her an invitation 
+If I run , I’ll get there in time 
2 
If + simple past , would + infinitive 
Like type 1 , type 2 refers to the present of future , and the past tense in the if – clause is not a true past but a subjuntive , which indicates unreality or improbability .
Example :
+ If I were 18 again I would go on a round – the –world – tour . (I’m not 18 , in fact I’m 45 )
+ If I studied , I would pass the exams 
3
Ig +pat prefect , would have + P2 
The time is past , and the condition cannot be fulfilled because the action in the if – clause didn’t happen .
Exmple :
+ If I had found her address last week , I would have sent her an invitation .
+ If I had studied , I would have passed the exams
