Didactic strategies: methods and procedures: ice-breaking, conversation,
explanation, dialogues, listen-and-do activities, role-play,
singing and miming, making up a poster
materials and equipment: handouts, flashcards, worksheets, glue, puppets, large drawing boards (larger then
A3), P.C. , video projector (a short cartoon What can you
do?), audio cassettes, CD player
organization: class work, individual work, group work
Anticipated problems : Some students may be shy to speak English (or to mime). The teacher will encourage them to speak English (and to have fun, miming).If they remain silent, they are less likely to learn. T. will explain to them that it is better for them to risk getting something wrong, than not to say anything. All learners need to experiment and make errors.
Notes: This is a high energy lesson which is great fun and allows my students to pick up the structures quickly.Parts of this lesson can be used in other lessons as energy burners (especially the song I used many times in the past: Hop to the tree).
