1. WARM UP (Time allotted: 5
min.)
Objective: Get Ss ready to participate and focused on
the lesson.
Procedure:
- T will ask Ss how their
day is going.
- Ss will respond.
- T may prompt Ss by asking more questions (weather, weekend plans, etc)
Evaluation:
- T will monitor oral productions and help Ss as necessary.
TRANSITION (to the next
activity)
- T: “Great, it sounds like
everyone is looking forward to the weekend. Yesterday, you all completed the
last lesson from this unit. So today we're going to do some review. Don't
worry if you're new or missed some days in the last two weeks, we'll work
together to understand and complete the activities.”
2. REVIEW A (Time allotted: 25
min.)
Objective:
- SWBAT demonstrate vocabulary knowledge by completing
sentences using provided vocabulary.
Procedure:
- T: “So this unit has been focused on traveling and vacations. Let's all
look at our handouts of pg 126 at activity A. Could I have a volunteer
to read the instructions?”
- S volunteers and reads aloud
- T: "Thank you, so in this activity we're taking the words about
travel that are in the box and placing them in the sentences 1-7. Let's try
doing number one together. Who would like to read the first sentence?"
- S volunteers and reads aloud
- T: "Okay, who thinks they know what goes in the blank?"
- Ss responds and T questions why they chose their answer
- T: "Great job, now let's look at the rest of the words, are
there any that you've never seen before?"
- Ss respond and guides them to the meanings as needed
- When they come to the word travelogue, T plays short YouTube video
about Colombus, Ohio to demonstrate what a travelogue is.
- T: "Okay, one last thing before you start. Does everyone know
when to use a, an, or the?"
- Ss respond and T explains their use if needed
[Basically, an article is an adjective. Like adjectives, articles
modify nouns.
English has two articles: the and a/an. The is used to refer to
specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or
non-particular nouns. We call the the definite article and a/an the
indefinite article.
the = definite article
a/an = indefinite article
For example, if I say, "Let's read the book," I mean a
specific book. If I say, "Let's read a book," I mean any book
rather than a specific book.
Remember, using a or an depends on the sound that begins the next word.
So...
a + singular noun beginning with a consonant: a boy; a car; a bike; a
zoo; a dog
an + singular noun beginning with a vowel: an elephant; an egg; an
apple; an idiot; an orphan
a + singular noun beginning with a consonant sound: a user (sounds like
'yoo-zer,' i.e. begins with a consonant 'y' sound, so 'a' is used); a
university; a unicycle
an + nouns starting with silent "h": an hour
a + nouns starting with a pronounced "h": a horse]
- T: "Good, let's take 5 to 10 minutes now and complete the
exercises on your own. Don't forget to add the words a, an, or the before
your word if it needs it."
- T monitors as Ss work and helps as needed.
- T: "Okay everyone, let's come back together and go through the
answers. I've written the numbers on the board. If you think you know
the answer come up and write the word."
- Ss write on chalkboard
- T corrects by asking students if they had a different answer so Ss
decide as a class what the correct answer is
Evaluation
- T will ensure each
student understands the definition of the new vocabulary. T will help ensure
each student has the correct answer in each blank.
TRANSITION (to the next
activity)
- T: “Nice work on that activity. I know some of the words might have
been new, but don't you think they will be useful the next time you take a
trip? Now we're going to read about someone who traveled all the way to
Finland.”
3. REVIEW B (Time allotted: 20
min.)
Objective:
- SWBAT select the correct word endings for a given set of
vocabulary in a particular reading selection
Procedure:
- T: "Okay let's all look now at the next activity on pg 126 of
our handouts. Could someone read the instructions?"
- S volunteers and reads aloud
- T: "Okay so this activity is asking us to circle the correct
word endings for an adjective. An adjective is a word that modifies a noun
(person, place, or thing) or a pronoun (he, she, it, they, or a word that
takes the place of a noun). Some times they end in -ed and sometimes they end
in -ing. Before we circle the correct words we're going to read about a
traveler. Let's each read one sentence in the paragraph."
- T directs who starts and who is to continue. T: "Does everyone
understand?"
- Ss read aloud
- T discusses paragraph meaning and whether any word is unfamiliar,
writing them on the board if needed
- T: "Okay so let's go over when to use the -ed ending and when to
use the -ing ending." T explains.
[Adjectives that end in -ed are used to describe how people feel:
'He was surprised to find that he had been upgraded to first class.'
'I was confused by the findings of the report.'
'She felt tired after working hard all day.'
'-ing' adjectives
Adjectives that end in -ing are used to describe things and situations.
Compare these example sentences to the ones above:
'Being upgraded to first class is surprising.'
The findings of this report are confusing.'
'Working hard all day is tiring.']
- T: "Okay, are there anymore questions about word endings? Great,
so now take about 5 minutes and look at numbers 1 through 4 with a partner
and decide what word ending works best."
- Ss complete activity in pairs
- T: "Alright let's come back together. Who can tell me what the
answer to number 1 is?"
- S volunteers and answers, T responds and guides as needed
- T repeats until activity is completed
-T: “Great work everyone. Is it more clear about when to use which
ending now? Okay, let's take a 10 minute break now."
Evaluation:
- T will monitor oral
productions in both reading. T will ensure understanding of ending usage by
checking Ss answers.
10 MINUTE BREAK

did in activity A."
- Ss work and T monitors and helps as needed.

about the answers together. Who wants to read number one?"

answers)

Evaluation:
- T will ensure each student has the correct word in the blanks
TRANSITION (to the end of class)
