Presentation:
Meaning

To allow the students 10
to use their own skills minutes
to
attempt
discovering
the
meaning of the
grammar
...
T will display a timeline of the
Past Simple tense along side a
timeline of the Present Perfect
tense
...
(Timelines attached in
material section along with
example sentences which
highlight
the
difference
between the two structures)
...
T will present example
sentences to the class in the
form
of
“common
life
experiences at the carnival”
3
...
Such as “I
have been to the doctor” and “I
have not been to the dentist”
...
Initially differentiate between
the two timelines and make the
switch from Past Simple to
Present Perfect seeing as the
students already have prior
knowledge on Past Simple
...
Actively think about the
grammar structures and after
reviewing examples, provided
by the T, be able to derive their
own understanding of the
grammar
...


Presentation: To allow the students 5 minutes
Pronunciation to
identify
the
contractions used in
the target language

structure being used
...

Complete a worksheet where they will
be required to unscramble sentences
into the correct form structurally
...


Ss-Ss

T will split the class into two groups and
have them lined up in two rows facing
forward
...

T will whisper a target sentence to both
of the students at the back of the line
who then have to transfer that sentence
through whispering to the learner in
front of them
Once the message gets to the two
respective learners in front, they need to
scramble the word cards and form the
correct sentence that they heard
The team that gets it correct, or closest
to being correct will gain a point
...
Each student will also
get a chance to physically build the
sentence when at the front of the
queue
...

Game continues until everyone has had
a turn or until 10 minutes have expired

student demonstrating to the class
how to proceed with the activity

T will
make it clear that stronger students
can create their own scenarios as long
as they use the target structures

of which might be true for someone in
the class

They
will develop confidence using the new
structure which will allow them to
execute it in real-world use after the
lesson has finished

lesson and leave on a
positive note
...
Students write down the relevant
person against each of the points
...


Lesson Rationale (700-1000 words):
1
...
I believe this approach aids the student in confidence as well as in a practical sense
...
How does each activity contribute towards to the aims and how it will be achieved?
1
...
I will achieve this through a
topic-related, fun and interactive exercise that is easy to follow
...
This will aid the lesson aim as it will set a foundation for the processes later in the lesson
...
During the Presentation (meaning) stage, I aim to introduce the students to the target grammar by means of timelines, orally presenting the structures, inductive
examples - the inductive method (guided discovery)
...
They have been
exposed to the Past Simple before, however, it will be covered in depth alongside the Present Perfect
...

3
...
I will also teach the effect that contractions have on how words are spoken

This stage highlights the potential difficulties which may arise due to the varying forms (positive, negative and question)
...

5
...
Being children, I aim to keep the lesson fun and
game oriented
...

6
...
This directly aids to the aim of the lesson as it will now allow the students to put to use all the aspects
they have learned and they should notice the difference in ability compared to the beginning
...
During the Cooler, my aim is to draw the lesson to a close by means of a fun, concept-centred game where students have to converse with each other in the
newly learned structure
...
This will aid the overall aim of the lesson as it will encompass all that
has been taught in a fun, interactive way
...
What will happen if one or more of the activities do not go to plan?
If one or more activities do not go according to plan, the first thing I will do is take a mental note of it and record it down on my notes for future lessons
...
If it is a group activity that a few students do not understand, I will
explain the activity again in another way and possibly act out an example to the class
...
If I see that my time allocations have not become a reality and students need more time on a certain stage/activity, I will take note for future time
allocations in future lessons
...
Ultimately, there are many methods
to rectify possible problems

13 i-to-i LOVE TEFL Lesson Plan

I initially wanted to incorporate a spelling worksheet where learners would have to spell out words and their contractions as used in this grammatical structure
...
The spelling can always be taught in another lesson
in the future or could possibly be used as a homework assignment
