How many months in a year?
Start off by looking at a calendar with everyone
(and English one, if possible). Have some fun with the calendar
first: ask students to point at holidays such as Christmas and to
point out their birthdays. Ask what month their birthdays are in
and point to the month word (e.g. January) at the top of each
month. Start to teach / elicit the English words for months as you
discuss their birthdays. Ask what month it is now as well as the
following (using the calendar):
months other holidays are in; months for
different seasons (e.g. summer months, winter, spring and fall /
autumn).
2. "Put the months in
order"
Before class, prepare some colored rectangles of card and write the
months of the year in thick marker pen on each rectangle of card.
By referring to the calendar, have the pairs put the months in
order on the floor or table. Then get everyone to touch each card
and repeat after you as you chorus the months of the year paying
special attention to the fist letter of each word (e.g. "J" for
"January").
3. Play "Wall
Touch"
Give each pair some Blue-Tak or something to stick the cards on the
wall with. Ask everyone to randomly stick their cards all over the
walls around the room. Then bring everyone into the middle of the
room. Shout out "January" and everyone has to race over to a
January card and touch it. Then “February” and so on (in the
correct order) until you make it through all the
months. Play another round, this time
faster.
Do
"Months
Order"
worksheet
Give out the "Months Order" worksheet to each student. As your
students are doing their worksheets, circulate and ask questions
(e.g. “What month is it?”,
etc.).
Review past tense regular verbs – "Spin
the Bottle"
game
students will have covered some regular verbs
using the past tense form in a previous lesson. Let’s begin this
lesson with a review of these by playing a fun game of "Spin the
Bottle".
Have everyone sit in a circle. The teacher starts
by spinning a plastic bottle in the middle of the circle. Whoever
the bottle points at when it stops spinning is shown one the
regular verbs flashcards (from the previous lesson) - make sure no
one else sees the flashcard. That student must then say "Yesterday
I …" and act out the verb on the card. Everyone has to guess what
he/she is doing and shout out the correct verb in the past tense
(E.g. "jumped in puddles"). Play until you have practiced all of
the verbs on the cards.
Review the structure "Yesterday,
I verb+ed"
On the board, draw a vertical line down the middle, dividing the
board into two equal halves. Stick the regular verb flashcards from
the spin the bottle game onto the left-half of the board. Tell your
students you are going to ask each person "What did you do
yesterday?" and they have to give an answer using one of the verb
flashcards on the board using "Yesterday, I …" and their answer
must be true. Go around the class and get everyone to give you an
answer. Also, ask at least one extra question to each student (e.g.
"What did you watch on
TV?").
