Lesson Plan

Run through all the questions from the previous lessons – remember to keep it fun by varying how you elicit the answers.

1.
Play 2. Rock, Paper, Scissors ask 3. What’s your name? + My name is ….. & Nice to meet you, 4. How are you? + several of the answers

5.
6. Left, right, forward & back. Plus the Left & Right song.
7. I am, you are, he is, she is, they are, we are, everybody is …. gesture a person and a “How are you?” emotion and the kids make the appropriate sentence.
8. Jump whilst singing the numbers 1 to 12. (This time without the music)
9. Ask “How old are you?” and the students ask each.
10. What’s the weather like? + a selection of answers and sing the What’s the weather like? song.

2: Input with the new language and song

Teach the phrase “Do you like …?” and then use 2,3 or 4 examples from the song as practice.

Then once the kids have got the hang of it, play the song from the Teacher’s Set and get the kids to answer honestly with either “Yes, I do!” or “No, I don’t!” for all the rest of the vocab.

Here it is in action with Margit’s kids:

And Virginie’s class! (After a quick warm up to wake up the parents 🙂 )

3: Output with the Big Group Karuta game

This is one of my favourite games and has lots of speaking from all the students.

First the version for big groups …

1. Split the students into two halves, and give each team a cool name.
2. Three kids from each group are nominated to be the designated runners and stand at the back.
3. Put the “Words 2” on the screen.

4. Wander round the class and say “hello” to a random student ( or point the microphone to them if you have one)
5. This student then asks you “Do you like…?” plus one of the foods at the front.
6. You answer “No, I don’t”.
7. Wander around getting a few more people to ask you.
8. Eventually you say “Yes, I do!” to one person’s question.
9. The front runner from each group has to rush forward and pick up the matching card. The further they have to run, the more fun!
10. Continue from 4.

It’s really fun and frantic and has lots of participation from many students. One nice thing is that even weaker kids can say “Do you like apples?” or “Do you like bananas?”, and the more advanced students will ask more complicated ones.

And everyone has to listen really carefully to what each person says. As you will have quite a few “No, I don’ts” before the final “Yes, I do” it’s really good practise for everyone to listen really carefully to many people in the class. After all, the one time they don’t listen maybe the one you say “yes” to!

The other good thing is that although most of the students are sat down ( it’s great for even very large classes), they are all listening and they all go crazy shouting the words out and supporting their runners as they run past them to get the cards!

Or Small Group Karuta

Ninja Tip: On a laptop you’ll see subtitles in English on the video. If you’re viewing on a phone or tablet the game starts 2 minutes in.

1. Everyone is in a circle with the picture cards in the middle.

2. One student gets to answer.

3. Going round the circle, one person at a time asks this student “Do you like ….” plus one of the foods on the cards.

4. They reply “No, I don’t!”

5. Repeat from step 3.

6. But …. sometimes they will say “Yes, I do!”

7. Then everyone has to try and slap this card!

8. The fastest person to slap this card is the winner, gets to keep the card and becomes the answering student!

9. Repeat from step 3.

Or one more alternative for group work …

The Hippo Worksheet Game

Give everyone a copy of the VIP worksheet:

2. They cut out the 8 pictures on the top right.

3. Place any 4 pictures on the “Yes, I do!” section.

4. Place the other 4 on the “No, I don’t!” section.

5. The players rock, paper, scissors ( or try a coin toss) to see who goes first.

6. The winner says “Do you like” plus the name of one of the items.

If the item is on the other player’s “Yes, I do” section then it is safe.

However, if the word is on the other player’s “No I don’t” section then the 2 players rock, paper, scissors again.

If the person who asked the question wins, and they can say the name of the card plus “please”, they can steal the picture and place it in their hippo’s tummy!

7. The other player now has a go at asking.

If you have taken everything from your opponent’s “don’t like” section then you have won!
