1. Design introductory, planning, report and language focus activities to use before and after the tasks you designed in activity cycle 4.3 (see 4.3.9), together with any classroom materials required. (In some cases you will just need to write down the teacher's instructions for these activities, and no materials will be needed. It would be a good idea to write these out as part of a brief plan for the whole lesson(s).)
   
   
2. OPTIONAL EXTRA: Draw a diagram to show the stages of a task-based lesson as suggested by Jane Willis. Add notes to describe the roles that the teacher and learners will be taking at each stage. Add notes to show which of the four conditions for second language acquisition (identified in activity cycle 4.1 - see 4.1.2) each stage fulfils.

These will form the fourth entry for your materials file. If you are using the materials file template provided, these items should be numbered 1.5 and 2.1 (and 2.2, etc if you design more than one complete lesson). The TBL lesson diagram and notes (1.5) should be placed in part I of the file, and the lesson plans, classroom instructions and materials (2.1, 2.2 etc) should be placed in part II.
