What am I required to do?
To create a 60-minute grammar lesson, with appropriate stages, tasks and resources.

An A2 monolingual class of twelve 14-16 year olds (6M, 6F) in their own country. They are at late elementary level (A2).
Decide what nationality your class is and state this in the lesson plan.
Guidance - Preparing to Write your Lesson Plan
Before starting to write this assignment, you should;
1. Read Unit 1 Part 3 on lesson planning.
2. Read Unit 7. There is also a short section on PPP in Unit 6
3. Research the target language: First conditional to talk about events that are likely to happen. There is some information on conditional forms in unit 7, but you will need to look at it in further depth and reference your sources.
4. Read the following document carefully, download it and save it to your local machine. Notes on teaching this form.
5. Look at this model assignment, which demonstrates how we want you to present your work. N.B. This is for different target language - you should not copy anything directly from the model.
Model 1. PPP Grammar lesson table Model
Model 2. Lesson plan form and paragraph
Model 3. Materials a cont practice, hw
Model 3. Materials b score sheet

Model 4. Teacher Language

Model 6. Bibliography
6. If you would prefer to read the instructions on paper, you can print out instructions to download.
While you may use or adapt practice activities you have found elsewhere, the presentation stage must be of your own design. It is not, for example, acceptable to use a video or PowerPoint presentation of this language that you have taken from elsewhere.
What should you submit?
Please ensure documents are CLEARLY labelled and numbered as below. Please note if your files/documents are not clearly labelled, you may be asked to re-submit.
1. PPP Grammar Lesson Table completed for your lesson. This is to help you analyse the language and plan how to teach it. It will be helpful for you begin your assignment by completing this form. (See 'Notes on teaching this form.')
2. Lesson Plan and Paragraph. The lesson plan, followed by a paragraph (100-150 words) justifying and explaining your choice of teaching aids, activities and materials for this class.
3. Materials Copies of all materials you would give or show the students (worksheets, visuals etc.).
4. Teacher Language Show the actual words you would use for
a) Eliciting the target language and form, and concept checking in the presentation stage. You may need to include some predicted student responses. (See the examples shown in Unit 7.)
b) instructions to one of the activities in your lesson
5. Board Plan(s) A board plan (more than one if you prefer) showing what you would write on the white board during the presentation stage, with example sentences, time-line and reference to form and meaning. Imagine you would working on the board during the lesson.
You cannot submit a PowerPoint instead of a board plan.
6. Bibliography
If English is not your first language, please check your language carefully. Your marker will be looking for evidence that your English is of a high enough standard to work as an English language teacher.
When you have finished your lesson plan, look through 'Lesson planning checklist and how this assignment will be graded' before submitting your work.
Academic referencing (using quotes from or referring to text books, websites or the TEFL Academy online course) is a requirement for this qualification.
Assignment
You need to plan a 60 minute PPP lesson to introduce and practise the first conditional for events that are likely to happen to a class of A2 level 14-16 year old students.
Aims of this lesson: To introduce the first conditional for the function of talking about events that are likely to happen
To contrast the use of future simple and present simple in sentences such as 'We'll eat dinner together if Mum gets home by 8.'
To provide controlled and freer practice of the first conditional in this function.
Assumed knowledge: Students would already know present simple, present continuous, past simple for common verbs, and would be familiar with will for future events.
They would be familiar with grammatical terminology such as the names of the tenses they already know, subject, auxiliary verb, negative form, etc.
You do not need include how you would elicit negative and questions forms from the students.
You should include negative and questions forms in the PPP table and practice activities, but they do not need to be part of the presentation.
Pronunciation - How is it pronounced? Which words are stressed and where are the weak forms? What contractions are normally used ?
Choose practice activities that would be appropriate and interesting for this age group.
Your lesson should have five main stages. Make sure you have a warmer and a plenary as well as the three PPP stages.
