Assignment B - PPP Grammar Lesson Table: First Conditional
NB: Look at the model provided and make sure you understand what MFP refer to here. See Units 2 and 7. For example, in number 4 in the
table below, we do NOT mean 'What is the function of the lesson'!!!
1. What is the target form of the first conditional First conditional
(both clauses)? (F) Affirmative form:
1. If clause - If + Subject + Present simple
2. Main clause - Subject + will + infinitive without to
The if clause can come first or second in the sentence. The meaning is the same:
-If + Subject + Present simple, Subject + will + infinitive without to
-Subject + will + infinitive without to If + Subject + Present simple
Example:
If I do my homework, the teacher will be happy.
The teacher will be happy if I do my homework.
2. What is the model sentence you will elicit to I will begin by eliciting a question to the students about studying, e.g., Do you study during
begin your presentation? the weekend?
I will then take one of the student’s examples in the warmer and use it as a modal sentence,
eliciting both the main and result clause.
Example:
If you study hard, you will pass the exam.
3. What are the negative and question Model sentence in negative form: : If you don’t study hard, you won’t pass the exam.
(interrogative) forms of your model sentence? Form: If + Subject + Present simple, Subject + won’t + infinitive without to
(You might find there is more than one possibility,
, but you only need to show one negative and one Model sentence in question form: Will you pass the exam if you study hard? [Yes/No
question, then analyse the forms.) Question]
Form: Will + Subject + infinitive without to If + Subject + Present simple?
4. What is the function? (M) Conditional forms are used to express a possible condition and its results in the future,
talking about possible (or probable) situations in the future and its probable result. First
conditional sentences are based on facts, and they are used to make statements about the real
world, and about particular situations.
5. What do students need to know about the WEAK FORMS
pronunciation, including sentence stress and In affirmative form the subject and will are usually contracted: I’ll, you’ll, we’ll, they’ll, etc.
intonation? (P)
(Think only about how the model sentence In negative form (in the result clause) the verb will and not are usually contracted: won’t
would normally be said.) Reminder (Present Simple): In negative form (in the condition clause) the auxiliary verbs
do/does and not are usually contracted: don’t, doesn’t.
STRESS
Affirmative:
The stress is on the main verb of the sentence and any content words following the verb
Example:
If you study hard, you will pass the exam.
If the weather is good, we will go to the beach.
Note: Although “will” is a weak form, sometimes, when we are sure that the result is likely
or not likely to happen, we can stress it.
If the weather is good, I will go to the beach.
Negative: Auxiliary will + not carries stress and any content words following the verb.
If you don’t study hard, you won’t pass the exam.
, Question form: in Wh-word questions the stress is on the question word.
Where will we go if the weather is good.
INTONATION
Question form:
For yes/no questions the voice rises at the end:
Will you pass the exam if you study hard?
Affirmative and negative forms: voice normally falls at the end:
If you study hard, you will pass the exam.
6. What is the context I will use to introduce the Making prediction about the future.
form? (M)
7. How will I try to elicit the first conditional from I will use a student example about the future events or situations to elicit the first
the students? conditional form, when they feel like given a certain condition something is going to happen
(predicting the future).
8. How will I encourage students to analyse the I will put example questions and sentences generated from student examples on the board,
form (S+V, etc.) themselves rather than just and then analyse as a class
telling them what it is? (F)
9. What concept questions will I ask to check Are we talking about present or future? (Future)
students understand how the form is being Is it possible that this will happen in the future? (Yes)
used/what it means? Is the situation real or unreal? (Real)
Do we use it to express possible condition and its probable result or improbable
result? (probable)
Which part of the sentence is the condition and which the consequence?
, 10. What timeline can I use to help students I will adapt from this:
understand sentences such as 'If it's sunny
tomorrow, we'll go to the beach.'?
(See bibliography for source)
11. How will I get students to practice the Drilling and practice activities.
pronunciation?
12. What controlled practice activities will the 1. Students will choose the correct form of the verb.
students do? E.g., If he (fail/will), I (am/will) be surprised.
2. (if time) Students will complete the sentences using the correct verb form.
E.g., If he _______(miss) the bus, he __________(be) late for school.

do? I will begin with a sentence e.g. If it’s sunny, I will go to the beach.

to the beach, I will swim in the sea.
And the next student joins in and continue like that.
