Lesson Plan - My Presentation Content

Let's Learn the Words!

12
Lesson Goal: This page is a pre-teaching vocabulary and phonics lesson. It's designed to equip students with the essential words and pronunciation skills they need for their 'All About Me' & 'Me and My City' presentations.
Methodology: The activities are modelled after the provided phonics workbook, grouping words by sound patterns to help weak learners. Each section should be taught with a 'Listen, Repeat, Practice' rhythm. Use lots of gestures and TPR.

1. The 'Bossy R' Sounds! (ar, or)

Objective: To teach the /ɑːr/ and /ɔːr/ sounds and link them to presentation topics like places and hobbies.
Pronunciation Focus: For 'ar', have students open their mouths wide like at the doctor's: "aaahhh" then add the /r/. For 'or', make lips round like an 'O'.
Step-by-step:
  1. Point to the 'park' card. Say "p-ar-k, park". Have students repeat.
  2. Do the same for 'sport'.
  3. Read the practice sentence, pausing at the blanks. Elicit the answers from the class.
  4. Click the interactive trigger ?? to show them HOW to use this idea in their presentation.

Let's learn words to talk about places and hobbies!

Park

park

Sport

sport

I like to go to the park to play sports. ??

2. Action Words! (-ing)

Objective: To teach the '-ing' suffix for describing hobbies and activities (gerunds). This is high-frequency for the presentation script.
Activity Idea (TPR): Mime each action. Say "I am singing." Have the whole class mime and say it. Then transition to "I like singing." This helps them feel the meaning.
Script Link: Explicitly tell them: "In your presentation, you will say 'In my free time, I enjoy...' and then you use one of these words!"

Let's talk about what we like to do!

Singing

Drawing

Shopping

In my free time, I enjoy singing and drawing. ??

My Special Presentation: All About Me!

13
Lesson Integration Goal: This page serves as the content-gathering and structuring tool for the students' "All About Me" presentation. Now that they have practiced the key vocabulary on page 12, they can start filling this in.
Connection to PPT & Vocab Page: Constantly link the content points here with the delivery skills from the PPT and the words they just learned. For example, when they talk about something they like, remind them to SMILE (body language) and use an '-ing' word (I like singing).

1. My Look ?

Objective: To help students formulate the first part of their presentation: a simple physical description. This is an easy and concrete starting point.
Step-by-step:
  1. Read the sentence "We all look different..." aloud.
  2. Ask students: "What makes us look different?" Elicit answers like 'hair', 'eyes', 'tall', 'short'.
  3. Click the interactive trigger icon ?? to show the visual guide. Go through the sentence patterns "I have..." with the class.
  4. Have students practice in pairs, describing their own hair and eyes to each other.

We all look different. We have different features, like our eyes and hair. ??

2. My Personality ??

Objective: To introduce the abstract concept of 'personality' in a simple, accessible way. Link personality to presentation delivery.
Step-by-step:
  1. Read the text about personality aloud. Explain that 'personality' means "what you are like inside".
  2. Click the interactive trigger icon ?? to show the emoji options.
  3. Explain each emoji: ?? (quiet), ?? (lively), ?? (calm), ??? (loud). Connect back to the 'Making Eyes!' slide in the PPT.
  4. Ask students to choose one that is most like them. Perform gestures for each word. A 'lively' person might jump a little, a 'calm' person might take a slow deep breath.
  5. Crucial Link: Say, "When you give your presentation, your body language and posture should show your personality! If you say you are lively, don't slouch! Stand tall and smile!"

People have their own personality. This is who you are. Are you quiet, lively, calm, or loud? ??

3. My Talents ?????

Objective: Encourage students to identify and share something they are good at, building their confidence. This section is perfect for incorporating Total Physical Response (TPR).
Step-by-step:
  1. Read the text about talents. Explain 'talent' means "something you are good at".
  2. Click the interactive icon ?? to show the popup with more options. Connect these to the '-ing' words they just learned (singing, drawing).
  3. Ask students to think about their own talent. "Raise your hand if you are good at drawing! Singing? Running?"
  4. TPR Activity: Say "When you say your talent, show me! Don't just tell me!" Have students stand up and mime their talent as they say "I am good at..."

People are good at different things. We all enjoy doing different things. A mixture of people makes life interesting. ??

Objective: This is the main task. Students use this as a planner to write down the key points for their presentation script.
Guidance:
  • Frame this as their "Presentation Idea Map". Refer back to the words and sentences from page 12.
  • Go through each item. Model how to turn a point into a full sentence. E.g., For "Hair colour", you write "black". For the presentation, you say "I have black hair."
  • Encourage them to draw their picture first.
  • For 'Likes' and 'Dislike', click the ?? and ?? triggers to reinforce the link between the content and the expressive body language (smiling, making a face). Prompt them to use '-ing' words.

Check for Understanding: After covering all sections, click this large question mark. The review popup will appear. Point to each icon and ask the class: "What's this? What do you say in your presentation for this part?" This is a quick, fun, low-pressure way to review and assess their recall of the key presentation components.
