My manager recently pointed me to this article.
It's also available online here
I've designed some materials to supplement it.
The lesson doesn't need supplementary materials, and arguably it's not even a good idea. (I think you could make the argument that the lesson is more authentic without pre-designed materials). But I was nervous about how the students would react to the lesson, and I felt like having PowerPoints and pre-designed worksheets in the class made it more official.
The PowerPoint is designed with the assumption that the classroom has both one screen for the PowerPoint and also a whiteboard for the teacher to write on.

PowerPoint: slides, pub
Conversation topics Worksheet: docs, pub
Questions and Expressions: docs, pub
(I'm putting this online to keep track of my own materials, and indexing it here and here).
Conversation topics:
In small groups (2 or 3) brainstorm a list of conversation topics.
Choose things that you would like to talk about in this lesson.
You have 3 minutes.
At the end of 3 minutes, the group with the most conversation topics is the winner.
