A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use the two model conversations and phrase lists on the learner page. The final dialogue prompts are open-ended, with no fixed answer key.
- Read the sofa-moving exchange and identify thanks, the benefit and a reciprocal offer.
- Check how the hospital directions and map make the second person's help useful.
- Practise a final prompt using two key phrases across thanks and responses.
Support and extension
Supply Thanks for helping… frames. Extend with a specific benefit, while keeping offers of repayment optional rather than obligatory.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
