Students learn simple
grammar about plural.
3.
Sing a song-- “Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes” The song also
relates to the topic Body
Parts. When we sing this song, we add to the Body Language to inspire students’
interesting.
4.
Play games –“Panda”, “Body Memory” ,“ Bingo” In “Ponda”, when
students draw out a flash
cards. He/she recognizes the Body Part first, then speak out the Body words,
and then touching the word. In “Body
Memory”, in addition to
recognize words, we also train students to practice a simple sentence. In
“Bingo” game, students have to write down the body words. This game can test
students if they are familiar with the whole words.
Outcome:
Through the song and the games, the students can memorize and write the body words. They also can make simple sentences. This lesson plan makes students learn listening, speaking, writing and the plural form.
According to The
Audio-Lingual Method, we know that the native language and the target language
have separate linguistic systems. They should be kept so that the students'
native language interferes as little possible with the student’s attempt to
acquire the target language.
In other word, we
avoid speaking native language when we are teaching.
