Play the audio recording or show the video of a conversation between two people discussing their computer habits.
Provide students with a task, such as completing a chart with information about each person’s computer usage (e.g., activities, days of the week, time spent).
Play the recording twice and let students complete the task individually.
Review the answers as a class, encouraging students to share their answers and discuss any differences they have noted.
V. Speaking Practice :
Divide the class into pairs or small groups.
Provide each group with a set of conversation cards containing different computer-related activities and time expressions (e.g., “play games in the evening,” “study online on weekends”).
In turns, students choose a card and discuss with their partners or group members when they personally engage in the given activity.
They should use appropriate time expressions and frequency adverbs (e.g., “I play games in the evening, three times a week”).
