The main language focuses to teach fall into the categories of; vocabulary, grammar and functions. For vocabulary students need to be taught the meaning of words and their uses, pronunciation and written form. For grammar students need to be taught the structure of the language which includes the meaning, form, patterns and use of words in the sentence. Functions include inviting, suggesting, agreeing and disagreeing. For the activities, the Engage phase of the lesson is usually something that is quite generalised and which allows the students to have lots of freedom, expression and talking time and incidentally mention the focus of the lesson in a natural way without realising. For example giving a personal account of what the lesson topic is. The study phase is usually more controlled and the work the student does is specifically designed to help them learn a focused, specific thing. For example vocabulary words in a gap-fill. The Activation stage then allows them to use all the information they have learned in the previous steps but usually in a way that encourages them to use creativity to present the information in a slightly different and possibly unique way. For example a role-play.
