This lesson plan is for a 30-minute class for 5-year-olds learning colors and fruits in English. The lesson will begin with a greeting song to welcome students. Then students will play a dice game to review colors and fruits. Index cards with colored fruit skewers will be used to introduce the main activity where students make their own fruit skewers according to the card. Finally, students will eat their fruit skewers to conclude the lesson. The teacher aims to foster vocabulary learning and identification of colors and fruits through contextualized activities using real fruits.
