The learners are invited to open their books on page 185 and pay attention to the grammar lesson about the "relative pronouns"
The teacher invites the pupils to read each part of the lesson while the teacher explains through contexts the parts of the lesson.
The relative pronouns are used to form relative clauses
They are used to avoid repetition.
These clauses could be [ defining or non‐defining clauses]
1‐ Who –which and that as subject of a defining relative clause
o Relative clauses about "people" We can join stat to form complex sentences using th e‐ relative pronouns‐ < who – that
o They are used in place of noun subjects (the boy) or pronoun subject {I – you – she….}
o Relative clauses about things and animals: We can join stat to form complex sentences using the ‐ relative pronouns‐<
which –that>
o Which and that are used to refer to things or animals.
2‐ Who –whom, which and that as object of a defining relative clause
A – Relative clauses about people: We use "who‐ whom and that" to refer to people of noun objects or pronouns objects
{me‐ you – him‐her – them ….}
Example : ‐ This is the man, I wanted to see him.
‐ This is the man {who –whom – that } I wanted to see. {me‐ you – him‐her – them ….} who –whom – that
B – Relative clauses about things and animals :
We use "which" and "that" instead of 'noun objects or pronouns objects (it/them) to refer to animals and things.
Example : ‐ This is the house Jack built it .
‐ This is the house "that /which" Jack built.
3‐ Whose and where :
A – We use "whose" in relative clauses instead of ( his‐ her – their to refer mostly to people )
Example : . A widow is a woman .Her husband is dead.
. A widow is a woman whose husband is dead.
B . We use "where" in relative clauses to refer to places .
Example : The restaurant was very clean .We had lunch there (in the restaurant)
‐ The restaurant where we had lunch was very clean.
4‐ Function of defining relative clauses They give "essential information" about the people , things and animals they refer
to identify "what / who " we are talking or writing about.
Example: This is the man who saved my life.
We use no comma before the relative pronoun in defining relative clauses.
5‐ Relative pronouns in "non‐defining" relative clauses.
‐ We can also use "who‐ which – who – whom , but not 'that' in non‐defining relative clauses.
‐ Non‐defining relative clauses give "extra information" not essential.
‐We use "commas" before relative pronouns of "non‐defining" relative clauses. When it occurs in final position.
Example:
‐Abdelkader lives in a rented house, which is nearly 5 kilometers away from his work place.
‐We use commas after relative clause when it occurs in the middle position.
A‐London, which is the capital of Britain, has over 8 million inhabitants.
B‐ Ali's father, who is 75 , walks 10 km a day.
c‐Abdelkader, whose mother is American , speaks Arabic and English fluently
d‐ Zidane, whom I like so much, is Algerian.
Note :
A relative clause follows the noun it refers to .So it fits in the position where the noun or the pronoun it refers to occurs .It can occur
either in the middle or in final position. Page11

Personal Goals: During this lesson, what teacher competencies are you focusing on ? They should be adapted from the ATF to reflect the specifies of your situation
7.Active Learners: Learners acquire and retain language best when the topics meet their interests and when they are active participants in their learning: finding personal meaning
,learning cooperatively with peers, and making connections to life outside of class
a) The teacher supplements and adapts the textbook to plan activities related to learners' interests, prior knowledge and experience. " SARS" (S = Select / A = Adapt / R = Reject / S = Supplement )

class, learners mingling)within the lesson to support the objectives of the class and the feeling/energy of the group. F] The teacher ensures that the learners find their involvement sufficiently challenging. G]The teacher
teaches learners how to use language strategies to aid in their learning and communication.
