Lesson Planning: Assignment 1

Prepare a lesson plan that outlines 1 hour of teaching for a beginner-level, monolingual class of 20 adult students.

Plan activities that allow students to develop their speaking and listening skills.

The lesson plan must include:

• a lesson theme

• a list of all vocabulary that will be taught (8-10 words and a few short phrases)

• one grammar point that will be highlighted

• at least 4 different teaching methods (click on "catalogue" tab for ideas)

• links to any texts, images, songs, videos or other materials used (or include them on page 2 of the lesson plan)

Suggestions: (1) Change the fourth activity to something different, such as a dynamic dialogue activity (e.g. dialogue between a customer and grocery store worker). This would help make the lesson even more engaging. (2) Have all the exact phrases you want to teach using the audio lingual method written down in the plan. This will make you more effective when you teach the class, and less likely to forget something

LESSON THEME

Going to the Store

Why? From personal experience, the one thing I was the most unprepared for after going to a non-english speaking country, was going to the store and buying things.

LIST OF VOCAB

This being a monolingual class, it would be wise to prepare the words in their native tongue as well. Pictures would also be a boon, ideally locally taken pictures of things they are familiar with.

Nouns: ​Store Money ​Vegetable ​Meat ​Local Food Item (Rice, beans, some sort of common staple in the area) ​Price

Verbs:

To Buy ​To Find

Phrases: ​Where is..... I want to buy....

GRAMMAR POINT:

Using Question Words

Focus specifically on "Where is/are..." + Noun. Have students practice asking each other where things are around the class room, and then pointing to them. These could be actual classroom objects, or taped pictures of the above positioned around the room.

• "Where is... the money?"

• "Where is... the price?"

• "Where are... the vegetables?"

If time allows, can continue making sentences with "I want to buy...." + Nouns".

TIMING BREAKDOWN:

1st - 15mins:

A combination of the Bilingual Exercise, and the Audio-Lingual Method. Go over the words, speak them, refer to them with Massive Muscle Memory method, have them repeat, assign meaning to them, rinse and repeat for each noun.

2nd - 15mins:

Before class, you'd have either brought in the nouns discussed, or pictures of them, and placed them at various points in the classroom. Using methods of Movement, and the communicative approach, have the students break into groups of two. One will say an English noun, and the other student will point to where it is, then reverse roles. Do this until each student has done this with every other student.

3rd - 10mins:

Return to seats, and repeat the same process as the 1st 15mins, except with the verbs and phrases. If time allows, use the "Community Language Learning" method to pull more nouns. Again, focusing on the Audio-Lingual Method, call on random students to make sentences using the words we've learned thus far.

• I want to buy meat.

• Where is the rice?

• Waht is the price?

• I want to buy vegetables

• etc.

4th - 15mins:

Again break the students into groups of two, and let them where things are, and let the other student show them. Reverse roles. Do this until each student has had a chance to do this with every other student.

5th - 5mins:

Bring students back to seats, and have them add the words they want to their "Universal Language Generator", if they have one from a previous class. If not, encourage them to write them down, and refer back to them next time they are in the store.
