T: Yes, there is ‘have’ and more…
S: Verb 3

9. AHMETOGLU 8
T: Yes and V3 comes after ‘have’ (Teacher underlines and labels all the things said while
they are telling)
Teacher writes the rule under the examples –S+Will+Have+V3…(Checking understanding of the meaning and the form)
T: Do we use future perfect tense for the future events that are planning to be done
continuously?
S: No.
T: Can we use this tense to mention about the things that are still on the way to be done?
S: No. It should be finished.
T: Yes, exactly. Then we can say that we use future perfect tense while making predictions
about the completion of a future event before another future time. Is it right?
S: Yes.
T: Do we use only ‘will’ to give this meaning?
S: No… Will+have+been(V3)
T: Great.
Rationale: Teacher used an inductive approach in this plan and involved the students in all
stages of the presentation part. Teacher created a context at the beginning of the lesson and
took their attention with a photo of her friend, then used different pictures to clarify the
meaning of the structure. Afterwards, teacher clarified the form and wrote the structure clearly
on the board by asking all elements of the sentence one by one. Lastly, teacher made a brief
conclusion using eliciting.
Transition: Congratulations, you get the idea I think. Let’s work on the structure a little
more.
