Students’ activities

I. Warm up:   Spend a few minutes revising the previous lesson by calling some pupils to the front of the class to sing When will Sports Day be? Ask the rest of the class to sing with them and clap their hands along to the rhythm.

II. New lesson:

1. Look, listen and repeat

•              Tell the class that they are going to read and listen to a story about what someone is going to do on Sports Day.

•             Have pupils look at the pictures and ask them questions: Who are the pupils? Where are they? What are they doing? Check their comprehension.

•              Play the recording all the way through for pupils to listen and follow in their books. Play it again for them to do choral repetition, pointing to the characters   speaking.

•              Play the recording again for pupils to listen and repeat.

2Point and say

•             Tell the class that they are going to practise asking and answering questions about what someone is going to do on Sports Day, using What are you going to do on Sports Day? I’m going to ...

•             Have pupils look at the pictures and read the phrases. Get pupils to practise saying I’m going to ..., using the prompts. Point to Picture a and ask What are you going to do on Sports Day? for the class to answer I’m going to play basketball. Repeat the same procedure with the rest of the pictures.

•              Ask pupils to practise asking and answering in pairs. Monitor the activity and offer help, if necessary.

•              Invite a few pairs to act out the exchanges in front of the class. Correct their pronunciation, if necessary.

3Let’s talk:

•              -  Tell the class that they are going to practise further by asking and answering the questions in their books. If you want to add variety, you can invite them to imagine they are in different schools and give different answers. Tell them to make their own timetables before practising.

•              Set a time limit for pupils to practise. Monitor the activity and offer help, if necessary.

•              Invite two or three pairs to act out their conversations. Then give feedback.

6.Let’s play:

•              •         Tell the class that they are going to play Pass the secret! Follow the procedure in Games in

Introduction.

•              Divide pupils into groups of seven. Ask them to line up in rows. Whisper a sentence to the first pupil in each row. (E.g. We’re going to play table tennis on Sports Day.) The first pupil then whispers the sentence to the second one, and so on. The last pupil in the row says aloud the sentence he/ she heard. If the sentence is correct, the team wins one point. The team with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.

•              To make the game more competitive, select one pupil from each group to act as teachers. These pupils should say the sentences that the class has learnt from Lessons 1 and 2, and they have to whisper different sentences to the teams.
