• To practise Present Simple tense

• To practise speaking, reading comprehension and listening skills

• To develop problem solving and mathematical skills

• To give learners an opportunity to do sums and solve some problems in English

• To promote group work and collaboration skills

Age/level

Secondary,Year 6,level A2

Materials and equipment:laptops,a TV set,cards with numbers,pictures dealing with mathematics.

Procedure

Lead-in(1 minute):ask the pupils to look at the pictures and try to guess the topic of the lesson.

Warm up(5 minutes)

1)Number song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0Ajq682yrA

2)Ask the pupils to count from 1 to 20.Then show the cards with numbers and ask the pupils to tell them.

Preparation for reading comprehension.(10 minutes)

1)Make the mind map. Write down what you usually do at Maths lessons(count,calculate,do the sums,solve the problems,learn fomalas,draw line segments,learn the shapes)

2) Divide the class into groups and ask them to tell what they usually do at the Maths lessons using this mind map.

Reading comprehension (10 minutes)

The text(can be printed or just shown on the laptop of each pupil)

 The history of mathematics is nearly as old as humanity itself. Since antiquity, mathematics has been fundamental to advances in science, engineering, and philosophy. It has evolved from simple counting, measurement and calculation, and the systematic study of the shapes and motions of physical objects, through the application of abstraction, imagination and logic, to the broad, complex and often abstract discipline we know today. From the notched bones of early man to the mathematical advances of nowadays, the story of mathematics is a long and impressive one.

(The pupils read the text in groups and fill in the blanks with the missing words on the following card.)
