The lesson plan focused on communicative language teaching and the silent way method. The teacher spoke exclusively in English and acted as a monitor, allowing students to communicate in the target language. Students were encouraged to create their own responses by combining familiar and new information. Realia and visual aids were used to engage students and appeal to different learning styles. The goal was to emphasize communication over grammatical accuracy.

1. Teacher: NADIA (Lesson Plan justification)
The class that we observed was inspired in Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) Is
based on the premise that successful language learning involves not only a knowledge of
the structures and forms of a language, but also the functions and purpose that the
language serves in different communicative settings. This approach to teaching
emphasizes the communication of meaning over the practice and manipulation of
grammatical forms.
In the class there was interaction between teacher and students using the target
language, the teacher exposed the class speaking in English all the time.
Silent Method: Silent Way is based on the premise that the teacher should be as silent as
possible in the classroom in order to encourage the learner to produce as much language
as possible.
The teacher was a monitor she didn`t dominate the class, learners then go on to create
their own responses by putting together old and new information
It also was based in communicative competence: Competence.- Chomosky used this term
to refer to knowledge of language. This is contrasted with performance, which is the way a
person actually used language – whether for speaking, listening, or writing. Because we
cannot observe competence directly, we have to infer its nature from performance.
Communicative Competence: The ability to convey messages in speed of a lack of
grammatical accuracy.
Children tried to speak in the second language and the teacher encourages students to
produce target language.
Didactic material is a useful tool for teacher to enhance and motivate students, because
realia (puppets, flashcards, felt board, pictures, and labels) are attractive for children and
it helps to identify different learning channels. (Visual, Auditive, and kinesthetic.)
