ü NB: Look at the model provided and make sure you understand what MFP refer to here. See Units 2 and 7. For example, in number 4 in
the table below, we do NOT mean 'What is the function of the lesson'!!!
1. What is the target form of the first conditional Affirmative form:
(both clauses)? (F)
If + Present Simple, S + will + future simple
2. What is the model sentence you will elicit to begin
your presentation? If it is sunny over the weekend, I will go to the beach.
3. What are the negative and question Model sentence in negative form: If it is not (isn’t) sunny over the weekend, I will not (won’t)
(interrogative) forms of your model sentence? go to the beach.
(You might find there is more than one possibility,
but you only need to show one negative and one Form: if + it is not (isn’t) + Present Simple + S + will not (won’t) + future simple
question, then analyse the forms.)
Model sentence in question form: What will you do if it is not (isn’t) sunny over the weekend?
Form: Question word + will + S + base verb + if + present simple
4. What is the function? (M) The first conditional is used when talking about actions or events which are likely to occur in

5. What do students need to know about the Pronunciation:
pronunciation, including sentence stress and
intonation? (P) Students who speak Spanish as their native language tend to battle with vowel sounds when

the sentence a few times. Native Spanish speakers tend to also battle with certain consonants
in the English language, for example, some might battle with the ‘th’ sound in the word ‘the’,
I will focus on these words and have the students repeat them a few times as well as repeat
the sentence a few times too, to help them with their pronunciation. The students could also
