Lesson plan

Name: Sarghie Mihaela

Lesson This is my family
Textbook: Limba engleza, Firm steps, Ileana Parvu, Ecaterina
Comisel
Level: Elementary
Date: 16 th of November 2011
Length: 50 minutes
Lesson type: Vocabulary and Grammar
Information about the class:
The class is made up of 15 students, a mixed class
The class: 4th grade 2nd year of study.
The learners all have books and we have done Unit 1. For this
lesson I have planned to start Unit 2 which focuses on the lesson
related to the family. I have decided to work on the vocabulary
and also on grammar points- possessive adjectives.
OBJECTION
The text proposed by the authors is heigh about their
level. The students are just familiarized with vocabulary
on different topics. The text contains too many unknown
words and also difficult grammar construction for their
level.
Aim : provide controlled and freer practice of the vocabulary and
of the grammar point( possessive adjective)
Subsidiary aim:
To practice vocabulary( about family) and grammar
point(possessive adjective).
Personal aim:
To reduce teacher language in whole class activities and provide
more learner interaction.
Materials (including source):
Flashcards- designed by the teacher representing members of the
family
Magic English exercises for elementary students , Ionela
Mateciuc
Word cards for optional activity
Handouts for grammar issue( possessive adjective and family
members)
Assumptions:

Learners have been taught the members of the family before,but

they have not written anything so it would be just a reactualisation as for as listening skills are concerned, but not as for
writing skill is concerned. The grammar issue is easy for their
level.
Anticipated difficulties with tasks:
Small students, with a poor level, may have some difficulties in
placing in the right position the possessive adjectives.
Solutions: Some learners may have difficulty with grammar
issue but I will be prepared to practice together with the
vocabulary related to the members of the family).
