Routine: 5’
Purpose: to start the lesson and greet students.
I’ll enter the classroom and I’ll greet students:
T: ‘Hello! How are you?’ EA: ‘Hello! Fine, thank you!’
Warm-up: 15’
Purpose: to set the context and revise learned vocabulary.
I’ll divide the class in two. half of students will have cards

3. with pictures of parts of the body, and the other half will
have the names of these parts. Students have to find the
partner with the same part of the body. For example:
Once everyone finds his/her partner, we will check orally.
Transition: “Very good! Now, look at these pictures..”
Presentation: 15’
Purpose: to introduce the teaching points.
I’ll show students different pictures in order to present
the target language. For example:
She has got long wavy hair
He has got straight fair hair.
As I show the pictures, I’ll encourage students to guess
the meaning of the new vocabulary (pointing at the
highlighted words).
After presenting the target language, I’ll ask some
Teeth

4. volunteers to give examples about themselves or their
peers using the new words.
Transition: “Great students! Now, let’s do some activities..”
Development: 30’
Purpose: to practise the target language using the
coursebook.
Students will work with their coursebooks in order to
practise the teaching points.
I’ll ask students to do activities 1, 3 and 4:
Students will work individually but they will be able to
discuss answers or doubts with their peers (as they are
already arranged in desks of two students). I’ll walk
around as well in case they need help.
Students’ answers will be checked orally but I’ll invite
some volunteers to write them on the board, too.

5. Closure: 15’
Purpose: to end the lesson and revise learned contents by
playing a game.
Students will perform a ‘class survey’ in order to find
similarities and differences among themselves related to
their appearance. I’ll divide the class in three groups and
I’ll give them a piece of paper like the following:

6. The papers will contain different questions so the groups
will look for different aspects of appearance. Meanwhile,
I’ll write on the board three columns so the groups will
write their answers there.
Once they finish, we will discuss together all the answers.
The format in which the stages are presented will vary according to the
teaching approach or combination of approaches you decide to base your
lesson plan upon.
