Model Text for Past Perfect and Past Perfect Continuous

(TESOL Materials--Past Perfect, Past Perfect Continuous)

Slideshow: slides, pub
Worksheet: docs, pub

Notes: The model text is from HamiltonHouseELT Youtube Channel.  I've made up a slideshow and worksheet to accompany it.
Staging follows like this:
Lead-in: Slide 1 of the slideshow.  Elicit from students what the pictures represent (trouble when travelling), then confirm on the animation.  Go to slide 2.  Students talk to a partner about a problem they had when travelling.
Orientation to the Text: On slide 3.  Establish the names of the characters: Mark and Betty
Gist Question: Gist Questions comes up on animation: What problems do they have?​
    Play video from 0:27
Specific Information Questions: Use the questions on the first sheet of the worksheet, and slide 5.
Noticing Activity: On the second page of the worksheet.  Students listen and fill in the gaps.
For clarification of meaning, use 6 to 12.  Use concept checking questions to confirm understanding.  
Clarification of form is slides 13-14.
No slides for clarification of pronunciation, but teacher can drill sentences.
Slides 15 and 16 link to 2 controlled practices contrasting Past Perfect and Past Perfect Continuous: Board Race and Kahoot.
