Lesson Information:

 Class/Level: Age, topic, skill level, class name, etc…

Resources and Materials

List everything you need to teach this lesson. List every possible thing you will need to take to
the classroom, and/or obtain from the school, to complete the lesson. Make sure to include the
name and information of the used textbook, the needed stationary or equipment needed. You can
use bullet points to list the resources and materials needed.

Goal/Aim

The students will be able to: _____ (use active/action verbs) _________________.

Grammar Structures Employed

List the structures (usually 2 or 3) to be covered or emphasized in this lesson. Describe how they

First Semester 2022/2023 3 EL330


Warm-up

This includes a review (revision) of the previous lesson linked to this new lesson through
questions and answers to elicit conversation using the new structure and function and to show
examples of what the students will learn in this lesson.

Presentation

In the presentation, the teacher does about 75% of the speaking. In this context, teachers present
new concepts, model vocabulary/structure/function, etc. to the class.

Practice

Students occupy about 60% of the time, teachers 40%. In their contributions, students are
expected to model vocabulary, dialogue, pronunciation, intonation, etc. A practice exercise is
used for pair/group work that is monitored by the teacher. Practice is done by the students at their
desks, and it should progress from basic level to more advanced. At this point, students’
performance should not be graded.

Application

Students speak, write, listen and practice what they have learned on individual bases. Students
occupy 90% of the time, teachers 10% - only to correct if necessary. A production exercise is
given - generally not the same sheet of exercise/activity that was done in the practice section.

Assessment

For each activity, the teacher will assess how well students are using the target language
structures via discussion and recapitulation of what has been covered in class.

Follow-up
Homework: Teachers assign some activities as homework.

Next class: Students will have to submit HW to the teacher /perform in front of the class.

Part B: lesson plan in-class activities and tasks in detailed description (5 pts.)
Design in-class activities for each stage of your lesson plan on ‘cultures’.

Part C: lesson plan in-class/virtual presentation (5 pts.)


Give a 15 minutes’ demo-class presentation of your lesson plan using PowerPoint presentation
template.
