Here you are going to write a lesson plan for a large class of 60 students. The plan is 60 minutes long, and so don''t forget to put the timing for each stage, and the student/teacher interaction too. Note; S-T & T-S is not suitable for a large class, you need to get the students in small groups right from the start, and interacting in those groups as soon as possible.
To write your lesson plan you have to use a PPP structure. Here's a quick reminder of the stages you will have to include (don't forget you can find detailed information on these lesson plan structures in units 2 and 6 of the Methodology course).
PPP
1. Lead-in
Use this to warm the students up for the lesson, grab their attention and find out what they already know about the TL. Remember not to teach anything here.
2. Presentation
Teach the meaning, pronunciation and form of the TL. Elicit as much as possible and don't forget the concept questions . Remember you need to find a way for your sts to discover the meaning themselves rather than just tell them.
3. Practice (controlled)
Students practise using the TL themselves in structured activities.
4. Production (free)
When you are happy the students have grasped what you have taught them they can practise using the TL in a free way using everything else that they know. This should be a speaking activity and students should use the language naturally.
Must Use Lesson topic ideas below:
You need to do a lesson based around functions - i.e. how to do something. You can choose any function you like - here are a couple of ideas:
-Making a complaint
-Giving Opinions
-Making requests
-Agreeing and disagreeing
-Making excuses
Don't forget as target language here, you will teach between 8 and 10 useful phrases rather than individual words for the function you choose.
Now you can write your lesson plan. Here are a few things to remember:
Your students should be put into groups right at the beginning and they should work in these mini-groups throughout the lesson. You can put groups together for some activities but avoid whole class activities. You need to describe the group work in each of your activities.
All the students should participate as much as possible and aim for as much STT as possible.
Elicit - don't lecture the students.
Use your group leaders to help you manage the activities, and help with monitoring and feedback.
Choose something that is suitable for both the age and the level of the students - they are pre-intermediate level teenagers.
The word limit for your lesson plan is 600 words.
