 Goodbye song (retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCr2t34vkIE)
Pedagogical use of ICT: Ss will watch a video made by the teacher in which Tiggy (the puppet) shows
themhiskindergarten,histeachers andmates.
Seatingarrangement:
During the first part of the lesson, Ss will be sitting in a semi-circle in front of the teacher for the
“Good morning”routine.
Later, they will move to the video-room (accompanied by the main and assistant teachers) in order
to watch the video(presentationstage of the lesson).
In that room,theywill be sittingonthe floorfacingthe T.V.screen.

6
Cooperative work:
Childrenwillwork asa class.
Possible problemsandpossible solutionsregardingbehaviour:
Since Ss will have to move from their classroom to the video-room and viceversa, it is possible that
they want to get to that room immediately; forgetting about the rules regarding lining up, hand in
handwiththeirdesignatedmate.
T will remember Ss about those rules, checking that they line up properly, avoiding the waste of
time.
As soon as they arrive in the video room, children will be arranged in the same way as they are in
theirroom:boy – girl – boy.
During the prior encounters, several students were absent. Therefore, there were more girls than
boys, which altered the established pattern. In cases like that, the main teachers hint this teacher
aboutwhichgirlsshouldandshouldnotsittogether.
Potential problemsstudentsmay have with the language:
Even though Ss mightfeel more confident with the language, the teacher and themselves (as regards
their ability to use the language), there are still a few shy Ss (Nicol, Joel, Monserrat) who need more
encouragement. T will nominate them to answer the comprehension questions on the story, or to
elicitkeyvocabulary.
It is important to give Ss some “Thinking time” before they voice an answer, but without making it
last for too long. That would contribute, on the one hand, to losing the momentum and, on the
other hand, to put a lot of pressure on these Ss. If they are still feeling reluctant to speak, then T will
ask a mate to eitherhelphim/heroranswerthe questionhim/herself.
Assessment:Whatwill be assessedand how:
As usual, T will monitor that Ss enjoy the lesson. Besides, she will pay attention to their level of
participation, they use they make of the language they have so far and the way they assimilate the
newlanguage items.
Integrationof Skills:
Listeningandspeakingwill be integratedduringthisclass.
Routine (5’)
Aim: To greet the SS and create the right learningenvironment.
T will be bythe classroomdoor,welcomingSswithawarm“Hello!”or “Good morning!”.

7
As she does so, she will also invite Ss to sit in a semi-circle in front of the board, justlike they usually
do everymorningwhentheyenterthe classroom.
T: Good morning!
Hello!
Please, come in!
Once theyare all sitting onthe floor,T will startthe lessonbysaying:
T: Hello, children!
Ss (EA): Hello!
T: How are you today? Fine?
(T puts her two thumbs up and shows a big smile)
Ss (EA): fine/ thumbs up/ a smile.
T: That’s fantastic!
(again, displaying a big smile)
Then, T will check that Ss are sitting following the pattern suggested by Regina and Silvia (main and
assistantteachers),thatis:boy,girl,boy,girl.
If they are not sittingthatway,T will askindividualstudentstochange placeswitha mate.
T: Let’s sit on the floor this way:
Boy – girl – boy – girl
If necessary, T may employ the flashcards from the previous lesson and start saying the chant
introducedinthe firstencounter:

8
BOY GIRL

Afterthat,T will askstudentstohelphercounthow manygirlsand boys there are inclassthat day.
T: Ok, now let’s count.

Everybody sitting down

Boy and girl sitting down

To the tune of “Mary had a little lamb”

9
How many girls are there here today?
Ss: one- two- three ….
Last week, this T noticed that most of the Ss were able to count to 10, hence the only difficulty that
may arise at this stage is that either boys or girls exceed that number. If this happens, T will provide
the numbers above ten, not with the aim of teaching them to Ss, but to familiarize children with the
soundof these teennumbers(incidental learning).
T: (eleven/ten) girls…
There are (eleven/ten) girls here today.
(Nicole) can you come here and write the number?
Same procedure will be followedwithboys.
Transition :
T: All right, there are ______girls and ______ boys here today. That´s great!
The more of us the better!
We’ll have so much fun together!
Now, tell me …Do you remember Tiggy, the tiger?
Warm-up(5’)
Aim: To set the contextfor the story .
After T has asked Ss whether they remember Tiggy, she will put a picture of him on the board. Ss
may ask T about him and, since the puppet will not be part of this lesson, T will proceed to explain
hisabsense:
T: Well, Tiggy is sleeping at home now.
(T puts her head on one of her hands and draw a house on the board)
But… he sent a video for you!!

10
(T shows a pen drive to Ss)
He wants you to know his kindergarten
(T puts the image on the board)
T: This is the Kindergarten. What is it?
(T points at the picture)
Ss: (This is) (the) (kindergarten)
T: This is the kindergarten. It is a kindergarten like this one.
(T uses her index finger to point at the whole classroom)
Transition:
T: Are you ready to watch the video?
Ss: yes!!
T: Ok, please stand up!
(T makes gesture so as to convey meaning)
And line up here!

11
Presentation(10’)
Aim: To introduce the lexical set related to the places/ rooms in the kindergarten by means of a
video,integratingboth listeningand speakingskillsina single activity.
Once Ss are arranged in the video-room, T will ask them to pay attention to the TV, because they are
goingto see Tiggy’sKindergartenandmeethisteachersandfriends.
T will describe each scene in the video, pausing it from time to time to allow for children’s
participation(drilling/comprehensionquestions)
Scene 1
T: Look! Who can you see here? Who’s this?
(T points at the TV)
Ss: Tiggy!
T: It’s Tiggy!! ..and this? What’s this?
Ss (EA): (Kindergarten)
T: It’s the kindergarten! What’s this?
Ss: It’s the kindergarten.
T: Tiggy goes to the kindergarten…just like YOU!
(T points at the children in the room)
Scene 2
T: So, this is Tiggy’s kindergarten…and these? Who are these?
Ss: la seño, los chicos!
T: Yes! This is the teacher, and these are the children.
(T points at each of them and elicit the names)
Ss: The teacher
The children

12
T: Look at the children…a (boy) and a( girl)!

“Hello children! I’m Miss Hanna
What’s your name?”
“My name’s Peter.”
“My name’s Sally.”
“Hello Peter and Sally!
Welcome to the kindergarten.

at them:
T: Who’s this?
Ss: (Miss Hanna, Peter, Sally)
Scene 3
T: Well, NOW we are In the kindergarten
(T makes a gesture to convey meaning)
T:What place is this? Anyone?

Ss (EA): This is the classroom.
T: Look at the children working together…
Oh! Is this Miss Hanna?

13

T: No, this is Mr. Brown, the teacher…Who’s this?

T: Football..
T: Tiggy likes playing football and
Ss: Basket..
T: Basketball, very good!!
Scene 6
T: Wow! Tiggy did a lot of exercise in the gym, and now he’s in a hurry!
(T moves her hand quickly so as to convey meaning)
He needs to go to the ….
Ss: baño!
T: Yes! He needs to go to the TOILET.
This is the toilet.
What place is this?
Ss: This is the toilet!
T: yes! But wait a minute! Is this the toilet for Tiggy?
(T points at the image of the girls’ room door)

15
Ss: No!! (es de las nenas!)
T: Ahh! This is the girls’ toilet and Tiggy is a boy.
Then, Tiggy goes to the boy’s toilet.
(T points at the boys’ room door)

themon the board.
T: Look at this picture..What’s this?
Ss: The (kindergarten)
T: This is the kindergarten!

17
(Nicole), can you put this picture on the board? Thanks.
Once all the cards are displayed on the board T will proceed with Choral drilling, taking away the last
flashcard every time the children name the whole series. The idea is that they end up naming all the
rooms/placeswithoutthe helpof the pictures.
Transitions:
Great job,everyone!!Congratulations!
