Resources/Materials

Warm-up

Begin by connecting to the previous unit's story. Ask children what they remember about the events in Unit 3.

Use Story poster 3 to visually prompt recall. Ask specific questions like "What do Rosy and Tim find? Where are Mum, Billy and Grandma?"

Students actively participate by answering questions and engaging with the familiar story element.

Observe students' participation and assess their recall of prior learning.

Lead-in

Introduce new weather vocabulary by presenting flashcards. Hold up each flashcard one at a time and ask "What's the weather like?"

Model the pronunciation of any words students might not know.

To reinforce understanding, mime the actions associated with different weather types. For example, wipe your forehead to represent hot weather or stand under an imaginary umbrella for raining. Repeat with flashcards in a different order to solidify learning.

Students participate by answering questions and pointing to the correct flashcards.

They observe and imitate the teacher's miming to connect words with actions, aiding memorization.

Observe students' ability to identify and name weather types (sunny, rainy, windy, hot, cold, snowy) through spoken and physical cues.

Flashcards

Main Part

1 Listen, point and repeat.

2 Listen and chant.

Break the class into smaller learning groups. Play the recording "Listen and point" for students to listen and point to corresponding weather pictures. Repeat this process for "Listen and repeat" and "Listen and chant" activities.

After each recording, hold up flashcards in random order and ask students to identify and say the weather words.

Students actively participate in listening activities, pointing to pictures and repeating weather vocabulary after the recording prompts. They then demonstrate their understanding by identifying flashcards.

Observe students' listening comprehension, pronunciation, and vocabulary recall. By using multiple activities, cater to different learning styles and assess overall grasp of the target vocabulary.

3 Listen and read.

Transition to story comprehension. Use Story poster 4 to introduce the story "Listen and read." Discuss each frame with the class, encouraging them to make predictions about the plot's development. Play the recording for students to listen and point to the speech bubbles as they hear the words. Ask comprehension questions like "What's the weather like at the beginning/middle/end of the story?" or "Has Grandpa got the key? Who opens the door?"

After listening, have students revisit their Pupil's Books (Exercise 1) and find and point to the vocabulary words they just encountered in the story.

Students develop listening comprehension skills as they follow the story and answer questions. They then apply their vocabulary knowledge by identifying words within the context of the story.

Observe students' comprehension of the story and ability to identify target vocabulary within a written text. This assesses their ability to transfer learned vocabulary to different contexts.

4 Ask and answer.

To solidify speaking skills, divide the class into pairs. Ask a confident student "What's the weather like today?" and encourage them to answer, e.g., "It's windy." Repeat with another student before having all students take turns asking and answering the question with their partners.

Students work collaboratively in pairs to practice asking and answering questions about the weather using the target vocabulary.

Observe students' ability to use weather vocabulary in a conversational context. This assesses their ability to communicate effectively using newly learned language.
