 Teaching approach: The lesson is based on the Natural Approach, and organized
through the PPP procedure (Harmer, 2010)

3.  Materials and resources: a projector, worksheets, six boardgames, six dices, playing
pieces made of cardboard.
 Pedagogical use of ICT in class: a projector will be used to display an image and a
video song.
.
 Seating arrangement: : Students sit in rows sharing desks.
 Cooperative work: In the warm-up and presentation stage, the whole class will
interactwiththe teacher.Inthe while- watchingstage,studentswill workindividually,
inthe afterwatching stage the whole group will sing the song. Finally, they’ll work in
groups of four to play a game.
 Potential problems student may have with the language: Since students have
different levels of English, some of them may not understand the teacher or the
activities, so I’ll use different strategies such as: prompting, gesturing, modelling,
exemplifying,etc.If necessary,I’llapplythe sandwichtechnique.I’ll approach to those
students who have difficulties with the language to provide help.
 Assessment: what will be assessed and how: I’ll check students’ comprehension
throughtheirparticipationinthe warm-upandpresentationstage. I’ll encourage them
to produce some chunksof language byaskingsome questions. Inthe game, I’ll check
if students use L2 .

Board game :15’
Since it is the last class and for students to have fun, they will play a game in groups of
four. The purpose of this activity is to integrate the contents studied up to now and that
studentsinteractwitheach other developing their oral skills. They’ll answer some questions
using the structure: ‘I have (milk) for breakfast’, I’d like a (hamburger)’, ‘I like (grapes)’, and
name some food vocabulary. I’ll give them one board game per group and playing pieces.
Although the rules are written on the board game, I’ll use the projector to explain and
demonstrate the game.
T: “Listen! Make groups of four, please. I’ll give you these boardgames.”
T: “Keep quiet so I can explain the game. Ready? Ok! (I’ll demonstrate the activity) You put
your playingpiecesonthe start box.One playerthrowsthe dice.If youget four you move four
spaces. If you land on a picture, like this, you have to say a sentence. For example, I like
chocolate cake.Ok?Then,you passthe dice to anotherplayer. if you land on a yellow box (I’ll
point to it) you will answer the question, for example “Name two fruits” So you can say
bananasand apples.Then, pass the dice. If you land on a blue box, follow its instruction. For
example,“loseaturn”,you can’t play for one turn. If you land on “ Move ahead 3 spaces” you
move your playing piece three spaces(I’ll demonstrate it) If you land on “Roll again” you roll
the dice again. And if you land on “go back three spaces” you move back three spaces.” (I’ll
demonstrate it).AtthispointI’ll clarifydoubtsandcheckunderstandingby asking a student to
explain the activity and/or demonstrating with a student.
In order to all students can participate in the game, students will play one turn each.
T: “The first player that reaches the ‘Finish box’ is the winner! Ready? Let’s play!
As studentsplaythe game,I’ll pass around the tables to check if they are using English and to
provide help with their answers.
