SESSION 1 (80 min) ANTICIPATION

Part 1: Anticipation: Service Fair Walk (20 min)

Part 2: Vocabulary Development (15 min)

The teacher introduces career, entrepreneurship, and service vocabulary.

Part 3: Grammar Input: Have/Get Something Done (25 min)

The teacher explains:

Causative Structures: Have/Get Something Done

We use causative structures when a person does not do the action personally, but arranges for another person or professional to do it.

The structure is:

subject + have/get + object + past participle

Examples:

I had my website designed.
This means: I did not design the website. A designer designed it for me.

She got her phone repaired.
This means: She did not repair the phone. A technician repaired it for her.

Difference between “have” and “get”

Have something done sounds more neutral, formal, or professional.

Example:
The entrepreneur had the contract reviewed by a lawyer.

Get something done sounds more conversational or everyday.

Example:
The entrepreneur got the logo redesigned.

Both are correct. The difference is mostly tone.

Why this is useful

This structure is common in professional and business situations because entrepreneurs cannot do everything alone. They often need specialists.

Examples:

A designer creates the logo.
The entrepreneur had the logo created.

A lawyer checks the contract.
The entrepreneur had the contract checked.

A technician repairs the website.
The entrepreneur got the website repaired.

A printer prints the business cards.
The entrepreneur got the business cards printed.

Simple explanation for students

When I say:

I repaired my laptop.

It means I did the action myself.

When I say:

I got my laptop repaired.

It means another person repaired it for me.

More examples

  1. I had my hair cut.
  2. She got her phone fixed.
  3. They had their house painted.
  4. We got our photos taken.
  5. He had his contract checked.
  6. The company got its website updated.
  7. The client had the product delivered.
  8. The entrepreneur got her logo designed.
  9. The business had its invoice prepared.
  10. The startup got its packaging redesigned.

Part 4: Service Menu Challenge (20 min)

Students work in groups and create a simple “service menu” for a student entrepreneur. They choose five services someone might need to start a small business. Then they say what the entrepreneur had or got done. This is oral and creative because students imagine a real business.Students practice ranking speculation from strong evidence to possibility to criticism. The teacher gives one decision, and students must create three sentences: one with must have, one with might have, and one with should have. Then they explain which sentence is strongest and why.

Part 1 – Career Repair Relay (15 min)

Students work in teams. The teacher says a problem, and students must answer with a causative sentence. The first team to create a correct sentence wins a point. This keeps grammar active and fast.


Part 2 – Legal Rights Mini-Mission (15 min)

The teacher gives short situations where a customer or entrepreneur has a problem. Students decide what right or responsibility is involved and say one causative sentence.


Part 3 – Exit Service Sentence (10 min)

Each student says one sentence about a service they would get done for a future career or business. The teacher corrects structure and pronunciation.

Part 1 – Preparation: Career Service Fair (15 min)

Students prepare a mini booth for a service business. They choose a service, decide what problem it solves, and prepare three causative sentences. They cannot write a full script; they only prepare keywords.


Part 2 – Interactive Career Service Fair (50 min)

Half of the class becomes service providers and half becomes clients. Clients walk around asking what they can have or get done. Providers explain their service and give advice. After 15 minutes, roles switch. This works like a fun mini-marketplace, not a presentation. Students must use at least three causative structures during the interaction.


Part 3 – Client Reflection Circle (15 min)

Students share which service they would use and why. The teacher closes by connecting careers, entrepreneurship, responsibility, and legal rights.
