Show the Actual Words you would use for:
i) Eliciting the Target Language from the Context
Teacher: Class, let’s look at the sentence on the board: “If you keep eating chips/fries, you
will be unhealthy.” Does anyone know how many clauses are in this sentence?
Student: One clause.
Teacher: That is incorrect. As you can see, we use a comma to link the sentences together,
thatindicates the clauses. Would anyone want to try again?
Student: Two clauses.
Teacher: Yes, thank you! Who can tell me what they are?
Student: I think I might have an idea. There is an “IF” clause and a RESULT clause.
Teacher: Well, done, that is correct. Now who can tell me which is which?
Student: Is the “If you keep eating chips/fries” an “IF” clause?
Teacher: Yes, it is, therefore, the RESULT clause will be “you will be unhealthy”.
Teacher: Now write down the next sentence from the board: “If we don’t hurry, we will miss the
plane/bus/boat.”and highlight or underline the “IF” and RESULT clause.
