This document provides a lesson plan for a class on reading and discussing a short story. The lesson aims to develop students' speaking, listening, reading and vocabulary skills. Students will read a short story called "Bad Temper" about a boy who hammers nails in a fence when he loses his temper. After predicting and discussing the story, students will order the events and reflect on the message about controlling anger and the lasting damage of hurtful words. The teacher will assess students' comprehension and identify any language difficulties during the interactive reading and discussion activities.
Simulated Activities for Teaching Listening, Speaking, Reading and WritingDenmark Aleluya
The document provides examples of listening, speaking, reading and writing activities that can be used to teach English.
For listening activities, it describes games like "Completing the Lyrics" where students fill in missing words to song lyrics, and "Guess Me" where students answer riddles based on clues.
For speaking, it outlines activities like reciting tongue twisters to practice pronunciation, forming question/answer chains using the last word of the prior response, and class debates on topics.
Reading activities include having students write main ideas on sticky notes to place in a text, associating their prior knowledge with a reading, and symbolically representing an abstract theme from a text.
The document provides several cooperative learning strategies and structures to promote accountability:
1) The Three Step Interview strategy involves students interviewing partners by asking clarifying questions, then reversing roles to be interviewed. Finally, students share their partner's responses with the team.
2) Keeping students accountable can involve randomly calling on students to answer questions after a video or activity.
3) Using centers divides the class into small groups that rotate through different activities, projects, or worksheets at different locations around the room.
4) Additional strategies include think-pair-share, writing assignments where students build on each other's work, partner reading between older and younger students, and assigning student roles like checker to ensure accountability
- The document outlines a 12-session didactic plan for an English class focusing on goods and services.
- Sessions 1-6 introduce vocabulary like numbers, colors, family members, professions and places. Sessions 7-9 cover goods and services vocabulary through activities with flashcards, charts and videos.
- Sessions 10-11 have students practice conversational phrases and role-play conversations asking for goods and services. Session 12 includes a test and presentation of student conversations.
- The final product is a role play conversation using targeted vocabulary from the unit. Students will be evaluated on their notes, homework, participation and conversation writing.
This document provides details for a 16-session English language teaching sequence for 3rd grade students at School N° 218. The sequence focuses on teaching students about parts of the body through interactive activities using vocabulary like "have got". Sessions include warm-up activities reviewing vocabulary, games to reinforce grammar structures, creative projects like drawing monsters and describing their body parts, and using songs and videos to engage students. The goal is for students to practice oral English skills while learning about their body and values of respect and tolerance through age-appropriate integrated sexual education content.
The document describes a 30-minute English lesson for 30 students ages 8-9. It will focus on teaching likes and dislikes. A song will be used to introduce the topic. Then flashcards will be used to help students deduce the sentence structure for expressing likes and dislikes. Students will then ask each other what they like/dislike and find common interests. Finally, students will act out likes and dislikes at the front of the class so others can guess. The goal is for students to practice expressing and asking about preferences in English.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Answers about how you can do more with Walmart!"
1. Speaking
Instant warm-ups:
Chit-chat: Students spend five minutes speaking the target language (on any topic or a
topic selected by the teacher) with their partner; follow-up: teacher asks what topic was
chosen
Circle drills: Students recite days of the week, months, verb conjugations, anything that
comes in a series.
Free-association: Teacher (or student) says a "word of the day"; students then say what
word they associate with it; associations continue with this word until everyone has said
a word.
Brainstorm: Students come up with as many words as possible relating to a given topic;
one student writes them on the board.
"Buzz" with numbers: a number or a multiple is selected for which a word or sound is
substituted; students count, when that number (or multiple) is reached, student says
substitute word.
Warm-ups which require planning/preparation:
My Other Half: Divide the class into halves. One group of students has the beginning
of a proverb, if-clause, an entire question, etc. and the other side has the rest of the
proverb, result clause, answer to a question. Each student has to find his mate.
Scavenger Hunt: This activity is suitable for a variety of structures. A list of 10-15
statements are given on a sheet of paper. Each statement has an empty space next to it.
Students must circulate throughout the room finding someone who has done, used to do,
or did the activities on the list. Example: Find someone who: 1. has won a race.
Strip Story: Find (or write) a short story (6-8 sentences) and give each member of a
group one sentence. Students should memorize their sentences, and then, by reciting
them to other members of the group, try to put the paragraph in the right order. A variety
of the strip story is a cartoon version. Each group is given a cartoon strip without
captions that has been cut up. Students must re-assemble the cartoon strip.
Where's My Group?: The teacher gives each student a word (some students might have
parts of the body, others colors, others clothing, and others fruit) on a piece of paper. It is
the task of each student to find out which group he/she belongs to. To add to the
challenge, students should not be informed of the categories.
The Wacky Cocktail Party: Each member of the class is given a paper describing his
particular brand of craziness. One student might think s/he is made of glass, another
2. 2
might have a fascination with elbows, another think all the participants are fruit, animals,
children, etc. Try to think of a foil for each person i.e. the elbow-person likes to touch
people and the glass (wo)man is afraid of being touched. The guests must mingle and
chat with each other. At the end, members of the class will be asked to identify the
craziness of each guest.
Grab Bag: The teacher brings to class a bag of assorted items: ax, glove, ball, etc. and
the class must guess which famous person is identified with the item. This could be
developed into a higher level activity by dividing the class into teams and requiring that
answers be given in a complete sentences with an explanation of the association.
Help!: Each group is given a "serious" problem and the members must generate as many
solutions (both silly and serious) as they can. Example: Being locked in a movie theater.
Unfinished sentences: The class is given a list of sentence beginnings (these may vary
according to the grammar/vocabulary lesson of the day) and individuals must give a
clever ending. Example: Parents should always...
Picasso's My Name: The class is shown a very blurred sketch on an overhead (or the
teacher can create a wild, modernistic drawing)) and students should describe to the class
what they, as artists, have drawn.
Amnesia: The teacher pins the name of a famous person on the back of each student.
Students must ask yes/no questions to discover who they are.
Group Role Play: The scene is the jail, employment office, hospital waiting room,
principal's office, and movie casting office. Participants must mingle and tell why they're
there.
Presents!!!: Each student receives a magazine picture of an object (or a sketch would
do). The student must decide whom s/he would give it to, on what occasion and why it
would be appropriate. A variation of the same would be to have each student receive a
pictured gift and have to say why it is a wonderful present and how s/he will use it.
Saints and Sinners: This is appropriate for practicing commands. The class is divided
into saints and sinners. The teachers asks the class questions like "Should I smoke a
package of cigarettes? Should I give my mother a present for her birthday? Students
answer positive or negatively according to which group they belong to.
Hyperbole: The teacher brings to class pictures of famous people, an assortment of
objects, and a variety of places. Students must describe the object in a sentence with a
superlative. To expand on this activity, students can be asked to give reasons why.
Field Trip: The teacher decides on a place or an activity...picnic, movies, athletic
event,etc. One side of the class will ask questions and the other side will answer.
Example: Picnic...Where will we go? What will we eat? What will we wear? How long
3. 3
will we stay? When will be go? If the class isn't very creative, the teacher can formulate
the questions.
Circumlocution: Each group or pair is given a list of words that they don't know how to
say in the target language. Examples of such words might be: deodorant, hangers, inner
soles, file, etc. Students must describe the article, say who uses it, where, when, why,
how it is used.
Eye Witness: The teacher shows the class a picture (example: a busy street scene) for a
few seconds. If the picture is small, s/he may walk around the class. Members of the
class must then tell what they remember with the teacher asking follow-up questions. A
variation of this activity is to have students describe what is behind them in the class.
Listening
Instant warm-ups:
Categories: Students stand, sit when they hear a description which applies to them:
Everyone wearing jeans (clothes unit); everyone who is taking chemistry (courses unit);
etc.
Memory chain: Students repeat what others have said, then add an element: First
student: "In my town there is a church" , second student: "In my town there is a church
and a bank" etc. To make this more challenging, add numbers!
What is it? Teacher describes, in the target language, without naming, a film, TV show,
famous person, student, event, etc. until students guess what it is. Category must be
given.
Warm-ups which require planning/preparation:
Call me: Teacher has a list of the telephone numbers of students in the class; students
stand at beginning of class, sit when they hear their number.
Bingo: Teacher hands out grids, students write in items of choice: vocabulary words,
numbers, information from a story, etc. These are then read out at random.
What's wrong here? Teacher reads a story in which incongruous elements have been
placed; students raise their hands when they hear something wrong
True or false: Teacher makes a series of statements, some of which are true, others false;
students must say true or false. Using information on students and teacher makes this
more lively.
4. 4
Find a match: Teacher reads descriptions of four different people, two of whom have
similar interests and would probably like each other; students must match them.
A happy ending? Teacher reads a story with a strong, simple plot line. Students then

What's going on? Teacher and colleague tape a telephone conversation which is
somewhat vague; students must guess what is going on or what preceded this
conversation.
Do you have what I have? Students work in pairs, each one has a different handout on
which one picture matches; without looking, students describe their pictures to determine
which one matches.
Missing words: Song (or poem) on tape; students follow on the script with blanks to fill
in.
Is it there? Song or poem on tape (or read by teacher); students are asked to write down
certain categories of words or expressions (semantic or syntactic)
