Unit 11: Sources of energy
Listening

Teacher in charge: Cao HoaiNgan
Supervisor: Vu Khiem Ai


1. Objectives: by the end of the lesson - Languages: Ss will be able to +gain more knowledge about two different kinds of energy sources: renewable and nonrenewable
- Skills: Ss will be able to:
+ know how to do multiple choices and blank filling task. + improve listening skill such as listening for details
2. Assumed knowledge:
- Ss have already had background knowledge about sources of energy
3. Anticipated problems:
- Ss may not know many vocabulary items related to sources of energy -> T provides Ss necessary vocabulary.
