LESSON PLAN DESCRIPTION: In my 1st F2F lesson I could only covered
activities 1 and 2. The idea of this lesson is to continue workingon my thematic
unit ‘Positive and Negative thinking’ with the uncovered activities but
reordering them in a cohesive fashion. We were working on making
predictions with will, may & might at a personal level while regarding
optimistic, realistic and pessimistic outlooks.
In this lesson, I have created a new presentation about World’s predictions to
connect the topic with the Happy Planet Index. This lends itself to develop the
intercultural competence by making comparison between Argentina and
South Korea. Then, ss will watch a video about Asian stereotypes where
Korean people react about common stereotypes. I will encouragea discussion
about the way Western cultures portray Asian cultures. After this, I will
introduce a video about the world phenomenon BTS where ss have to guess
favorite meal, dessert, song, etc. Finally, students will complete and sing the
world hit ‘Dynamite’ by the Korean band BTS.
I was very careful when choosing the different videos since my students have
a low-level of English and haven’t been in touch with the oral language during
the pandemic and lockdown. Each activity has been developed with a PPT to
be displayed on a smart TV.

2. 2
Learning Aims
During this lesson, learners will be able to:
 Revise and practice the use of will, may & might for predictions about the
world.
 Practise new ways of talking about probabilities in the future by using may
and might. (scale of probabilities)
 Develop intercultural awareness of culture by reading and learning funny facts
about Korea’s lifestyle and finding similarities and differences with our own
culture.
 Foster speaking skills and collaboration by playing an interactive roulette
game where each group has to predict something randomly. person/football
match/Netflix series/etc.

Procedures
GREETINGS (5 minutes)

4. 4
Before students get into the classroom, I will connect my netbook to the smart
TV to get the slides readyfor the 1st
activity and check that everythingis working
well.
- I will first greet my students and ask ‘What day is it, today?’ and write it on the
board.
- I will ask ‘How are you today?’. Then, I will add ‘Today we’re going to play the
roulette game I promised last class and discuss some optimistic and
pessimistic predictions about the world. Plus, we willdiscuss the Happy Planet
Index and how Argentina and some other countries are ranked’.
- I will add ‘Of course, at the end of lesson we’re going to celebrate the
‘Students’ Day’ by singing a BTS song and doING karaoke. I have a surprise
for the end.’ If there is some time I will play extra songs two suggested by
some of the boys (Mark Ronson - Uptown Funk ft. Bruno Mars & IBeggin’ by
Maneskin).
ROULETTE GAME (GROUP ACTIVITY): ‘Spin and guess’ (20 minutes). Link:

Aure: to check the interactive features of this game you need to download the file.
- I will divide the class in groups of 5 students.
- I will say ‘Ok, let’s play the roulette game that I’ve created especially for you.’
‘You can’t play it on the PlayStation but… wait to see it…’ (LOL)
- Then, I will add ’And do you know what? The winner group will get a prize!’
(one alfajor + bombom per student). They won’t know the prize in advance.
- I will share the game and explain that I will spin the roulette and they have to
shout ‘Stop’ and wait to see where the arrow lands.

5. 5
- I will add ‘If you land on Holidays, for example you have to make a prediction
about that topic.’ And if you land on the same topic you must make a different
prediction and use a different modal (will, may/might or won’t).
- I willdraw a board with five columns to write 1 point for each correct sentence.
- Finally, I will say ‘Mind! If you make mistakes the point doesn’t count’. Pay
attention and focus. You have 40 seconds to make your prediction.
- I will set up a timer on my mobile for students to listen to the ringtone when
time’s up. This is make it more exciting, of course.
- Once the game is finished, I will say ‘And the winner is GROUP X’. I will hand
out the prize and congratulate them ‘Champs!’
Transition comment: Now, I want to share with you some predictions made by
scientists about our world. I’d like to know what do you think of them.

- I will share the PPT and say ‘Well, lets’ have a look at some predictions about
the world made by prestigious scientists retrieved from:
https://bestlifeonline.com/crazy-future-predictions/
- I will read aloud the first prediction and ask ss ‘How do you feel about this
prediction: You will probably communicate with dead relatives via virtual
reality? Do you think it will happen? Or not?’
- Then, I will continue with the rest of 5 predictions and ask ‘Do you think that
the future looks positive/negative? Do you think the predictions are realistic?
- I will repeat the same procedure with the next 5 clips.
- I will revise briefly the scale of probabilities (slide 9)
- Once I finished discussing all the predictions, I will focus on language for
expressing probabilities by asking students to place the predictions correctly
on the scale of probabilities (slide 10)

7. 7
- I will follow students’ suggestions trying to elicit right answers. I will drag the
predictions’ boxes in the correct order and praise students. ‘Good for you!
Well done, guys!
Transition comment: Ok, last class we made a quiz and concluded that the trend in
6th
year is neither optimistic nor pessimistic. In fact, you turn to be mostly realistic
people. Well, now I’d like to have a look at how happy are countries in general…
’
Transition comment: What do you think are the happiest countries? Why? And the
unhappiest countries? Why?

comprehension and asking a few questions such as ‘What does the HPI
measure? Which are happiest countries? Which are the less happy countries?
Did you think so before? Is it a surprise for you or not? I will say ‘Have a look
at how the HPI is calculated?
- Then, I will ask ‘Which are variables taken into account? Profit? Success?
Wellbeing? Life expectancy? (slide 4).
- I will say ‘Now you’re going to have a look at the top 10 of happiest countries.
I will do the same with the less happy. Plus, I will ask ‘What do you think than
Western countries doesn’t rank high in the HPI?
- I will add ‘Instead, Latin American countries and Asian Pacific countries are
within the highest ranked happy countries. Students answers.

compare it with another country that are supposed to lead the way as the
happiest countries, South Korea.

Argentina. I will highlight the comparative adjective and the key word ‘than’
