Step 1
Ask ‘If you want to have more free time, what will you do?’ Help Ss to answer with ‘In order to have more free time, we should …’
e.g. In order to have more free time, we should make good plans.
We should make good plans in order to have more free time.
Step 2
Explain to students that ‘in order to’ means ‘with the purpose of’ and that we can use ‘in order to’ to introduce the purpose of an action.
Tell students that ‘in order to’ can be used at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence. Remind them when we use ‘in order to’ at the beginning a sentence, we use a comma to separate the two parts.
