The lesson plan aims to help students revise and reinforce their understanding of identifying opinions, contrastive stress, and using examples. The lesson includes checking homework, recapping key concepts, and activities to practice the target language forms. Students will identify words that express opinions, speak with contrastive stress, and give examples using forms like "for example". The lesson is designed to improve students' listening and speaking skills through class discussions and role-playing exercises.

Post-Lesson Reflections:
We spent extra time on homework check because the students had extra questions and were
struggling with some of the work so I decided to cut out the role play and work on their listening &
practice preferences. The students are progressing well & they even told us at the end of class that they
are learning a lot from our classes! Yay! That’s something that every teacher wants to hear.
