How to run Stage 1
Confirm the observable outcome and connect it to one realistic learner need.

Choose the phrases that help you complete the task; do not memorise a full script.
It will take place on ___.
We’ll meet at ___.
Please bring ___.
Could you let me know by ___?
I hope you can come.
How to run Stage 2
Use the visual and first audio or text for meaning before explaining language.
3. Rehearse with support
Practise the decisions, evidence, listening, or language moves that make the final task successful.
- Find missing information in three original invitations.
- Order the invitation parts.
- Change one message for a friend and one for a school club.
How to run Stage 3
Select only the useful-language items needed for this learner and this task.
4. Complete the communication task
Exchange information, solve a problem, create a text, or reach a decision with a real outcome.
Write an invitation to an original fictional event, exchange it, and test whether a partner can answer six practical questions from the message.
How to run Stage 4
Run the supported rehearsal without reading every instruction aloud.
5. Perform, receive feedback, and retry
Complete the task with keywords only, receive focused feedback, and repeat the weakest part.
Write an 80–100 word invitation, revise one unclear detail after peer testing, and read the final version aloud.
Retry: Repeat once with clearer meaning, stronger evidence, more accurate listening, or less support.
How to run Stage 5
Run the main task: Write an invitation to an original fictional event, exchange it, and test whether a partner can answer six practical questions from the message.
Exit check
Complete this without reading a model: Write a complete invitation sentence with event, time, place, and response request.
Success looks like: A reader knows what the event is, when and where it happens, what to bring, and how to respond.
Evidence: writing · Repeat the weakest part once after one meaning-focused and one language-focused correction at most.
WR · Writing Control
2: Produces reader-focused writing that completes the stated purpose.
1: Demonstrates the skill after one focused prompt, correction or self-repair.
0: Cannot yet demonstrate the skill clearly enough to complete the stated outcome.
LC · Language Control
2: Controls the target language well enough to keep meaning clear.
1: Demonstrates the skill after one focused prompt, correction or self-repair.
0: Cannot yet demonstrate the skill clearly enough to complete the stated outcome.
Use these scores after the independent attempt. Record one recurring need in the Engduo app when lesson-result fields become available.
How to run Stage 6
Record focused evidence, give one meaning-focused and one language-focused correction at most, repeat the weakest part, and complete the exit check.

Teacher guide
30-minute must-do route
- Confirm the observable outcome and connect it to one realistic learner need.
- Use the visual and first audio or text for meaning before explaining language.
- Select only the useful-language items needed for this learner and this task.
- Run the supported rehearsal without reading every instruction aloud.
- Run the main task: Write an invitation to an original fictional event, exchange it, and test whether a partner can answer six practical questions from the message.
- Record focused evidence, give one meaning-focused and one language-focused correction at most, repeat the weakest part, and complete the exit check.
60-minute extension
- Create two versions with different tone for a close friend and a school organisation.
- Change the role, information, listener, or constraint so the learner transfers the skill rather than repeating the same answer.
- Compare the first and second performance and record one specific improvement.
Make it easier
Use a six-part invitation planner and sentence starters.
Make it harder
Create two versions with different tone for a close friend and a school organisation.
Likely difficulty
The learner may write a friendly opening but omit date, place, preparation, or reply deadline.
Correction priority
Prioritise complete event details, readable order, and an explicit response request.
Thai support rule
Keep the Thai panel closed unless examples, visuals, replay, reformulation, and simpler English do not allow progress. Explain only the key distinction, then return to English.
Progress record
Score WR, LC from 0–2 and record one recurring need from: complete-details, organisation, audience-tone.
Retry
Give one meaning-focused correction and one language-focused correction at most, then ask for a second attempt with fewer visible prompts.
