Ask pupils to sequence the words in the 2 titles in the right order. PRE-LESSON Explain that these titles will be the focus of the Reading lesson. Ask pupils to explain why the titles use the passive (focus on what happens rather than who makes it happen) and how to form the present simple passive. Pupils can use L1 here if need be, as the focus is on their understanding and learning rather than the accuracy of their English. 1) Divide the class into 2 big groups. Give one half How paper is recycled worksheet and the other half How glass is recycled worksheet. Tell each half to match the text to the correct pictures, to check their answers in pairs or small groups, and to say each time which aspect of the pictures, text, or both helped them to make their answer.

DEVELOPMENT 2) Ask pupils to work in pairs to use the prompts on the board to retell the process. They can use the complete text to help, but should try to work mostly from the prompts, so that they are using their own understanding and language rather than simply reading aloud. When pupils are ready, ask them to form new groups of 4, with each group containing 2 pupils from the paper group and 2 from the glass group. Ask pupils to swap pictures, and to give each other a minute or two to think about the new pictures. When they are ready, pupils give the pictures back. Pupils now tell each other about their own process, using the prompts they practised. Ask pupils in pairs and then as a whole class to say one new or interesting thing they learned about recycling. POST-LESSON Hand out the completed texts on paper and glass recycling to the whole class. By amount of teacher’s support: DIFFERENTIATIO Low-proficiency pupils: ~ pupils complete the tasks(s) with teacher’s guidance N High-proficiency pupils: ~ pupils complete the tasks(s) on their own TEACHER’S _____ out of ______ pupils achieved the learning objectives.
