Why this lesson / ทำไมต้องเรียนบทนี้
Useful words and chunks are noticed, distinguished, personalised and reused in communication rather than memorised as an isolated list.

TEACHER Teacher Lesson Plan · Read before class
- Set the listener, purpose and final outcome.
- Use the model for noticing, not line-by-line reading.
- Let the learner select and personalise useful language.
- Run supported practice, then remove the support.
- Delay feedback until the message is complete.
- Score the final task, give one improvement point and require a focused retry.
Meet the language in context
Describe ownership and collaboration precisely so colleagues know who leads, contributes, approves and depends on whom.
Learner does: explain the listener, purpose and successful outcome in your own words.
Teacher Help · Stage 1
Ask the learner to state the listener, purpose and successful outcome in plain English. Move on only when the task is clear.
Notice meaning and collocation
Model: Nara owns client onboarding. Som is responsible for the weekly data check and works closely with support. Final approval sits with Finance, and the launch depends on Legal completing the review.
Engduo Audio · Model 1
Engduo Audio · Model 2
Learner does: identify the job of each part of the model before borrowing any language.
Teacher Help · Stage 2
Use the model once for meaning. Ask what each part achieves; do not turn the model into a long read-aloud exercise.
Organise the useful chunks
| Ownership |
|
|---|---|
| Collaboration |
|
| Dependency |
|
Learner does: explain the meaning of each group and create one true workplace example from every row.
Teacher Help · Stage 3
Check meaning and appropriacy before correcting form. Keep only language the learner can explain and personalise.
Build true workplace sentences
Learner does: Match each phrase to lead, contribute, approve or depend.
Use keywords only. Change names, figures, reasons and actions so the message is yours.
Teacher Help · Stage 4
Give prompts or keywords, not a full script. Require the learner to make the content true for the situation.
Use the language in interaction
- Create a responsibility map for a real or imagined project.
- Explain the map while a partner asks who owns each next action.
Retry rule: after feedback, repeat the weakest part with one changed condition.
Teacher Help · Stage 5
Take the other role or act as the reader. Change one realistic fact after the first attempt and delay correction until the message is complete.
Final vocabulary task · independent reuse
Give a 90-second role-and-dependency briefing using at least six precise chunks and answer three ownership questions.
Success: complete the task independently and make the listener’s next action or understanding clear.
Teacher Help · Final assessment
Do not supply wording during the final task. Score the three Progress Focus areas, give one precise improvement point and run a shorter retry.
