Teaching approach: The lesson is based on the Communicative Approach, and

Integration of skills: students will work on their listening, speaking, reading and writing
skills
2. Materials and resources: audio track from the coursebook Big English 5, unit 5, Pearson;
whiteboard and markers; speaker; printouts; two sets of label cards
Pedagogical use of ICT in class or at home: In this lesson, an audio track will be used to
introduce the topic and exposure of the students to the teaching point. Activities
organised through the audio will enhance language learning and acquisition. I will book
the speakers for that day to connect to my personal mobile phone where I usually bring
the audio tracks
Seating arrangement: at the beginning of the class the students sit individually at their
desks looking at the whiteboard. During the following tasks they will sit in pairs or small
groups. They will also be standing durinng the mimicry game. The sitting arrangement,
together with the variety of activities and games, will be very important for this class
because it lasts 2 clock hours and it’s after lunch, when they’re usually already tired and
sleepy.
Assessment: I’ll check that students compehention through questions, their answers to
the activities and their written and oral productions
Routine: Timing 5’
Purpose: to start the lesson, get students in the mood for work, establish rapport.
Grouping : Lockstep
I’ll lead the students from the hall to the classroom, as they have their lunch break before the
English class. I’ll have them sit at their desks and once they’re all seated I’ll say: Hello! How are
you? How was your weekend? How was children’s day?
Warm up: Timing 10’
Purpose: To have students activate previous knowledge, to remember what we talked
about in the previous lesson
Grouping : Lockstep
I’ll say: Last class we were talking about holidays and about losing things remember?
According to the fun facts we read, what did people lose the most in 2011? SA: Their
mobile phones! T: Exactly! What can people do to keep from losing their mobile phones
when they travel? I’ll jot down the students’ ideas on the board.
EXCELLENT! Last class, you also drew some objetcs in your suitcases, remember? Now
we are oing to learn some more.
Presentation Timing: 10’
Purpose: To introduce new lexical items and the structure of past continuous
Grouping: Individual
I will hand the students a printout with pictures and labels of the target vocabulary
showing 9 items. I will ask them to describe the weather in some of them. Then, I’ll ask
them to read the labels and match them with the corresponding picture. They know some
of them, other items are quite obvious, so they’ll have to guess just a few. Once they
have finished, I will play an audio with 9 short descriptions which describe the pictures
and elements for them to check their guesses.
Audioscript:
1. A: While she was hiking, a mosquito bit her! Ouch! So she put on insect repellent.
3. 2. B: He learnt a good lesson. When he was biking last week, he fell and bumped his
head. Now he always wears his helmet!

Purpose: To practice the new lexical items
Grouping: In two groups of 7 and 8
I will ask them to form two groups and sit in a circle on the floor. I will give each group a
set of 9 cards with the vocabulary just learnt and a marker. I will assign each group one
half of the board for them to play pictionary, drawing and guessing the items. This is a
simple game they love playing since they all like drawing. I will walk around monitoring
their pronunciation and fairplay.
Activity 2: Timing 5’

Grouping: In pairs
I’ll give the children a printout with names of sports and leisure activities, some of which
they are already familiar with. I will ask them to say which images match the activities,
writing the corresponding letter next to it, and explain the ones they don’t know.

camping, horse riding, kayaking, swimming. I’ll focus their attention on the letters N and
ask them to pronounce each word. Can you find any difference? Where is your tongue in
each case? Then, I’ll ask them to classify each word according to the sound. We will
practice each word, emphasizing the N sounds. (We usually work on pronunciation and
are familiar with the IPA alphabet.

Purpose: To read and notice the target grammar form and practice listening
Grouping: individual
I will give each student slips of paper with the beginnings and endings of the some
sentences from the audiotrack of the presentation activity, including complex sentences
with past Simple and Continuous. I will ask them to form the sentences. Once they have
finished. Then, I will ask them to read them aloud. I will write them down on the board
using different colours for the simple past verb forms, the past continuous forms, and the
connector. I’ll ask them: what do these sentences have in common? How many parts do
they have? How are the parts connected? I will draw a time line on the board and explain
that there are two actions, one interrupting the other.
