LESSON PLAN

 

 

Lesson Focus: Vocabulary

Length: 60 min

 

Lesson Aim   By the end of the lesson, students will be better able to use the TL (expressions of frequency and adverbs of frequency) to discuss regular activities and routine.  

 

Subsidiary Aim

Practice correct word order of affirmative sentence for the Present Simple

 

Materials (What you will need in this lesson) Write title, author, year and publisher here and on your copies.

 

Text “The British way of Life?” p.10 Student’s Book Face to Face Pre-intermediate, Chris Redston&Gillie Cunningham,

2012, Cambridge University Press

 

Handout1 with tasks, adapted from p.11 Student’s Book Face to Face Pre-intermediate, Chris Redston&Gillie Cunningham, 2012, Cambridge University Press

 

Handout 2, Ex 4c +4d,  p.11 Student’s Book Face to Face Pre-intermediate, Chris Redston&Gillie Cunningham, 2012,

Handout 3 with tasks, adapted from p.11 Student’s Book Face to Face Pre-intermediate, Chris Redston&Gillie Cunningham, 2012, Cambridge University Press

 

 

Assumptions What do you expect the students will know about your target language/content of your lesson?

 

The students will be familiar with the meaning, pronunciation and form of the Present Simple

Anticipated problems (classroom management, content – NOT language):

 

1.            Language presentation might take too long therefore students will not have much time for practice.

 

 

 

 

2.            There might be an odd number of students

 

Solutions to these problems:

 

1.            If students are doing well with the TL  I will ask them to order words in only 6 sentences, instead of 10 during the controlled practice, so they will have time for semi-controlled practice.

If we do not have much time for semi-controlled practice I will ask students to make 2 sentences to have time for feedback.

 

2.            I will ask some students to work in group of three, for each pair-work I will change the students who work in trio.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

White board plan:  Draw the board as it will look at each stage of the lesson.

1 Lead-in

To engage the students into the context of the lesson

Ask the students what interesting facts about how the British spend their free time from the text they remember (Handout 1): 

“What do British people do in their free time?”

“Do they go to the cinema/museums?” Present it in as a cluster on the board.

2 Highlighting

To draw the students’ attention to the TL in the text

Ask students to find  model sentences in the text:

“What do they say about socializing?” 

To elicit “The British are always happy when they’re socializing.” Write it on the board.

 

“What do they say about TV?”

To elicit: “British people generally watch TV for about three hours.” Write it on the board.

3 Clarification  

To clarify meaning, form and phonology of adverbs of

frequency

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To elicit the meaning of “always”: “Which word tells us how often they do it?” Circle it.

To elicit the meaning of “generally”: “Which word tells us how often they do it?” Circle it.

 

Instruct students about following task, chest Handout 2 with sentences from the text:

“Find words that answer the question “How often?

Order them in a pyramid. You have three minutes”

Give example by eliciting meaning of the word “always”:”Where do we put

“always”?”

Give students Handout 2. Meanwhile, put the pyramid on the board with percentage of frequency, without TL 

 

Set the pairs and ask students to pair check.

 

Conduct open-class feedback. Write the correct answers on the board.  Elicit and highlight features of phonology in red, model and drill problematic words chorally and individually.

 

Ask the students to look at the adverbs in the Handout 2. Elicit its position in the sentence: “Look at the sentences. Find the adverb. Is it before or after verb to be? (underline the verb in the model sentence on the board). Is it before or after other verbs? (underline the verb in the model sentence on the board)”

 

Ask students to complete the rules in the Handout 3.

Conduct open-class feedback.

Give example by eliciting meaning of “once a year” and “twice a year”: “What is more often?”  Write it on the board in order “8- once a year; 7- twice a year” Ask ICQ: “Do you do it individually? How much time do you have?” Give students Handout 4. 

 

Set the pairs and ask students to pair check.

Conduct open-class feedback. Write the correct answers on the board.  

 

Elicit and highlight features of phonology in red, model and drill problematic words chorally and individually.

Ask the students to look at the adverbs on the handouts. Elicit its position in the sentence: “Look at the sentences. Where do we put these expressions in sentence?” (underline the expressions of frequency  in the model sentence on the board)

 

Ask students to complete the rules in the Handout 5.

6 Controlled practice

To practice accurate use of the TL, to focus on form

Instruct students on the task. Chest Handout 6 with the exercise: “Put the words of these sentences in order. Write the sentence in free lines. You have three minutes.”

Ask ICQ: “Do you work with a partner? How much time do you have?” Give handouts.

 

Ask students to work in pairs and check the answers: “Work with your partner and

7 Semi-controlled practice

To practice accurate use of the TL in a

more personalized way.

Ask students to make true sentences about them with free time activities from the cluster and the adverbs and expressions of frequency: “Tell you partner how often you do these things in your free time.” Give an example: “I often go to the theatre.”

Set the timing: “”You have three minutes”

Ask ICQ: “What words should you use? How much time do you have?”

Conduct an open class feedback. Elicit information about their partner.
