Language Skill:

 Listening : teacher’s explanation of grammar point and instructions,
pop song related to the topic.
 Writing : answering worksheet.
Language Systems:
 Phonology : I have -> I’ve -> eye’ve

 Function : Asking and answering about experience of their lives.
Assumptions:
 Students already know simple past form.
 Visual aids will make the class more interesting.
 It is easy for students to learn and memorize the structure of present perfect
form by drilling.
 Students are more interested in speaking their own experiences in class than
teachers’ explanation.
 6 international students.
Anticipated Errors and Solutions:
 Students might get confused what to do before they start activities.
- Ask CCQs to make sure they understand.
 Students might have a problem with expressing themselves in group work.
