Procedure (1) Warm-up/Review: (10 minutes) Students are currently learning new vocabulary about job titles and departments within companies. During this period, students will practice identifying the job titles through listening. First, show students the note cards of the job titles and ask them to describe the job titles. For example, show them sales manager and ask, "What department does he work for?" Students will reply, "The sales and marketing department." Then ask, "What does he do?" The students will reply, "Sell goods/company products to the market/customers." This serves as a check to see if students know the new vocabulary.Warm-up/Review: (10 minutes) Students are currently learning new vocabulary about job titles and departments within companies.

Procedure (2) Pre-activity: (15 minutes) Pass out note cards to each student; everyone should have a job title. Then demonstrate the telephone conversation practice (of course, the opening/ending greetings of telephone conversation should be mentioned.) First say, "Hello, this is Kimberly from ABC Inc. May I speak to the general manager, please?" Then the student who has the job title general manager will stand up and answer, "Yes, this is general manager Tom speaking. May I help you?" Check to make sure all students know their job titles and practice simple conversation for greetings.Pre-activity: (15 minutes) Pass out note cards to each student; everyone should have a job title.

Procedure (3) Listening Activity: (20 minutes) Continue to call on students as during the pre-activity, but this time add more message information, such as checking the date/place for the meeting, giving a telephone number, an invitation for dinner, etc. Students should be able to get the message accurately and then repeat/reconfirm the message to the teacher — to check for understanding. If students don't understand or feel unclear, they can response, "Pardon me?" or "Can you repeat again more slowly?" During the conversation, the teacher should also note if students are using the polite form of conversation.Listening Activity: (20 minutes) Continue to call on students as during the pre-activity, but this time add more message information, such as checking the date/place for the meeting, giving a telephone number, an invitation for dinner, etc. Students should be able to get the message accurately and then repeat/reconfirm the message to the teacher — to check for understanding.
