10	Warmer SS take 2 minutes to read the dialogue. ü The student play the role of Joao and ask him: Why don’t you use your teeth?	Writes a short dialogue on the board. Roberto- I can’t open this bottle. João- Why don’t you use your teeth? R- I’ll break them if I do that. J- You could place the cap over a hard edge and hit it. R- If I hit it with my hand I’ll hurt myself. Suzy- What about if we had a bottle opener? R- Yes! If we had a bottle opener, I’d open it quickly. T takes a bottle of soft drink and plays the role of Roberto. He mimes opening the bottle and says: I can’t open this bottle. T responds to the question by saying: - I’ll break them if I do that. T underlines the sentences and emphasizes the conditional forms ü
20	Presentation stage SS observe and analyse the pictures This is a car. - If I win a car, I will participate in the automobile racing. - If Mario buys a ball, he will play football. ü SS observe the pictures again and respond to the questions: If we had a building we would live in there. If we won a thousand millions of dollars we’d be rich. ü 1 million. 10 million. (no “s”)	Teacher holds up some pictures and asks students to observe them. 1- 2- Now I ask you some questions according to the 1st pictures. What is this? - What will you do if you win a racing car? - Class, what do you think will Mario do if he buys a ball? Ok. Now turn back to the second pictures and respond to the following questions: ü - What would you do if you had a building? - What would you do if you won a thousand million of dollars? ü
20	Study stage SS pay attention to the explanation of the subject and then write it on their note books. ü	In the first example, we form the first conditional by using: If+Present simple, + Future (will) - If I win a car, I will participate in the automobile racing. Here, we express a possible condition and its probable result in the future. Negative If I don’t win a car, I won’t participate in the automobile racing. Question What will you do if you win a racing car? ü In the second examples we form the second conditional form by using: If+past simple+ would If we had a building we would live in there. We use the 2nd conditional to express an unreal situation and its probable result. The situation or condition is improbable, impossible, imaginary,or contrary to known facts. Negative If we had not a building we would not live in there. ü Question What would you do if you had a building?

T asks the first group to write some sentences . T goes around the groups helping them with the phrases to be formulated.
