A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Give learners page 1; use the suggested answers on page 2 after they have written and compared their own responses.
- Compare availability questions with proposals, rescheduling requests and final confirmations.
- Write the eight responses about a manager meeting, client call, workshop venue and other plans.
- Role-play a diary conflict, offer another slot and read back the agreed format, date and time.
Support and extension
Support with a meeting-detail checklist. Extend with time zones for an invented online meeting. Check look forward to plus -ing; expressions of enthusiasm do not by themselves specify the arrangement.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
