HELP!! Last attempt at Business English TEFL

Hey, I am on my last attempt at this question and feel I am going around in circles!
Question asks you to discuss a few things, but I am stuck on the Interation and the SSS vs TTT of the lesson below.

Business Lesson
Objective: To teach students terms/acronyms commonly used in business e-mails.
Group level: Intermediate Lesson length: 45 mins
Target language: Terminology used in e-mail writing (eg. FYI, RE. , pix, Thx, docs, ASAP, enc., etc. )
Anticipated problems: Students may have difficulties memorising the new terminology/acronyms.
Solution: Ask them to memorise all the words.
Resources: none, write acronyms on the board.
Stage Interaction Timing
1. Ask students to write a business e-mail. S 10 mins.
2. Ask students to read their e-mails to their partners. S-S 2 mins.
3. Ask the pairs to exchange their work and correct their classmates’ work. S 2 mins.
4. Write a short business e-mail on the board and explain the terminology and acronyms. T-S 10 mins.
5. Put students in groups and ask each group to produce a similar e-mail. S-S 2 mins.
6. Give students a handout with a gap-filling activity and ask students to complete it individually.
First student to finish wins a prize and reads his/her work to the group. S

S-T 10 mins.

3 mins.
7. Assign homework – dialogue production. T-S 1 mins.

Any help yould be SO MUCH APPRECIATED!!

Hey, thanks for replying!
They are asking me to discuss the plan, specifically focussing on the interaction time and the Student Talking time Vs Teacher talking time.
I have submitted what I thought was correct and have been told otherwise!
Hope you can help!!

So, what did you submit?

Sorry!!
This is what I sent:
Interaction: There is a variety of activities and throughout the lesson, most of the skills in English are utilized at some point; reading, writing, speaking and listening. This will mean that students can practice all of their English skills. There is not much kinesthetic learning though so these students may become disengaged.
