KEY CONCEPTS
FOCUS STRUCTURES:

Step 1: Present
CLASS WORK: Think About It
Ask the class to work in pairs to discuss the Think About It questions. Then have the pairs share their answers with the class.
Teacher: What do you do after you get into an argument with a friend
Students: I don't talk them. We usually both need some time to cool down./I write my friend email to try and clear things up. /I try to resolve the argument with an apology.
Teacher: Good answers. Have you ever gotten back in touch with an old friend Before you answer, what do I mean by "old friend" Do I mean a friend who is older than you
Students: No. An old friend is a friend that you have been friends with for a long time.
Teacher: Very good. Now, have you ever gotten back in touch with an old friend
Students: Yes. Last year, I went on a trip with my family, and I met an old friend from primary school. Teacher: That's nice. It's fun to see old friends and catch up. "Catch up" is a phrase that means getting up-to-date with what's happening in another person's life.
