A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use the two model conversations and key-phrase lists on the single learner page; the final prompts are open-ended and need no fixed answer key.

  1. Identify shared publicity, free books and a small reading room as reasons to anticipate queues.
  2. Read the race model and distinguish training evidence, hopes and uncertain finishing time.
  3. Create a prompt exchange with two key phrases and explain what each prediction rests on.

Support and extension

Provide clue/prediction/plan notes. Extend by making a less certain version of a definite prediction and discussing why it may fit better.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
