• Speaking about hobbies

Differentiation:

At the beginning of the school year, learners need some time to feel comfortable to work with each other. This means that they may work with different speed. Teacher gives learners some time to think over the question, before answering.

• Teacher presents the slide with the statements, which learners should finish individually in the copybooks.

My favourite hobby is … because I like ….

One plus of my hobby is that …

I think that minus of my hobby is that …

Differentiation

Less able students are given a written example and they use it to get ready for the answer.

My favourite hobby is riding a bike because I like fresh air and speed. One plus of my hobby is health and activities. I think that minus of my hobby is that my parents spend a sum of money to buy a good bike for me.

Teacher listens to the learners’ answers and gives some corrections if they need it.

Teacher summarizes the group work and gives some praises or advice for future improvement.

Teacher moves back to the lesson’s objectives and recaps the lesson’s results.

Additional information

Differentiation – how do you plan to give more support? How do you plan to challenge the more able learners?

Assessment – how are you planning to check learners’ learning?

Critical thinking

More support:

• More support:

• Provide less able learners with the names of the hobbies

• Create mixed ability groups for discussion.

• More able learners:

Make analysis of their work and help weaker ones to arrange information.

• Monitor learners to check they can write correct words.

• Observe learners when participating in speaking. Did each learner contribute to the speaking and discussion? If not, why not?

• Learners managed to fill in the table of hobbies, distributing different hobbies into four columns.

Some questions provide critical thinking while answering to them.
