Greeting and dividing

The teacher begins the lesson by greeting the students warmly as they enter the classroom. Then, the teacher explains the activity: "Choose one of the hats and take a seat where your group is." The teacher distributes the hats or directs the students to where the hats are placed. As the students choose their hats, the teacher monitors the process, providing assistance if needed to ensure that students sit with the correct group. Once everyone is seated, the teacher transitions to the next part of the lesson.

Brainstorming

The teacher begins by displaying a PowerPoint (PPT) on the screen, which contains examples and keywords related to the past simple and past continuous tenses. They introduce the topic, drawing attention to each tense's specific words and phrases (e.g., “yesterday,” “was walking”). As each slide appears, the teacher asks Concept Checking Questions (CCQs) to help students understand the differences and uses of the two tenses. Examples of CCQs might include: “Did this action happen in the past or present?” or “Was the action completed, or was it happening over time?”

CCQ-s:

1. Did this action happen in the past or present?

2. Is the action completed or still happening?

3. Was the action interrupted by another action?

4. Do we know if the action was completed or unfinished?

Vocabulary

1. Study - оқу

2. Fall asleep - ұйықтап қалу

3. Start - бастау

4. Arrive - келу

5. Walk - жүру

6. Run - жүгіру

7. To joke - әзілдеу

8. Carry - алып жүру

9. Stand - тұру

The students greet the teacher and their classmates as they enter. They choose one of the hats provided and find their assigned seat with the corresponding group. Once seated, the students wait quietly for further instructions from the teacher.

The students watch the PPT slides attentively, focusing on the examples and keywords of past simple and past continuous. When the teacher asks CCQs, they listen carefully, then respond by answering each question based on their understanding. Students participate by sharing their thoughts, responding to CCQs, and, when prompted, trying to create their own sentences using past simple or past continuous.

After answering the CCQs, students continue watching the PPT, taking note of any additional explanations from the teacher to reinforce their understanding of the two tenses.

TASK 1

INDIVIDUAL WORK

MATCH VOCABULARY WITH TRANSLATION

The teacher begins by explaining the task to the students: they will work individually to match vocabulary words with their translations. The teacher introduces the "Interactty" platform and ensures that all students have access by providing login instructions or a link. To help students understand how to complete the activity, the teacher demonstrates how to match vocabulary words with translations on the platform.

Task 2

Pair work

Match definitions of past simple and past continuous.

The teacher introduces Task 2, explaining that students will work in pairs to match definitions of the past simple and past continuous tenses. The teacher directs students' attention to the two posters on the board labeled "Past Simple" and "Past Continuous" and explains that each pair will receive a card with a definition written on it.

The teacher then distributes the cards and pens to each pair, encouraging them to read the definition on their card, discuss it, and decide which tense the definition matches. The teacher moves around the room, observing pairs as they work together, offering guidance if needed, and prompting them to explain their choices if they seem uncertain. Once all pairs have placed their cards on the appropriate posters, the teacher leads a brief review by going over each definition, asking pairs to explain their reasoning, and ensuring everyone understands the distinctions between the past simple and past continuous.

Task 3

Group work

“Tarsia” methods.

Match questions with answers

The teacher explains Task 3, introducing the “Tarsia” method, where students will match questions with answers to complete a puzzle. The teacher divides the students into small groups, gives each group a set of Tarsia puzzle pieces, and briefly demonstrates the activity. The teacher encourages collaboration, moving around the room to observe progress and offer support. Once all groups complete their puzzles, the teacher reviews any challenging questions with the class.

Task 4

Group work

Translate the sentenses usind past simple and past continuoud and win the cube.

The teacher explaining that students will work in groups to translate sentences using the past simple and past continuous. The teacher explains that each group will earn a coin for every correct answer, and the group that collects all the coins wins the “Cube.” The teacher provides each group with sentences to translate, as well as a set of coins for tracking their progress

As students work on translating the sentences, the teacher moves around the room, checking answers and awarding coins for correct translations. The teacher offers hints or guidance if needed, encouraging students to collaborate and use both tenses accurately. Once a group has gathered all the coins, the teacher awards them the cube, and the class celebrates the winning team’s success.

Task 5

Group work

Choose one of the box and answer the questions.

The teacher explainы that students will work in groups to select one of the boxes on the “Interacty” platform and answer the questions inside. The teacher gives each group instructions on accessing the platform, ensuring everyone understands how to select and answer questions within the chosen box. The teacher encourages the groups to discuss and collaborate on each question for accurate answers.

As students work, the teacher monitors their progress, providing help and clarification if needed. After each group completes their questions, the teacher leads a class review, discussing any challenging questions and celebrating group achievements.

The students listen to the instructions and access the "Interactty" platform. They log in and locate the vocabulary-matching activity. Each student matches the vocabulary words with their correct translations, working individually and focusing on understanding each word's meaning. If they need help, they ask the teacher for clarification. After finishing, they review their answers and participate in the teacher-led discussion on common errors or challenging words.

The students listen to the teacher’s instructions and then pair up with a classmate. Each pair receives a card with a definition of either the past simple or past continuous tense, along with a pen. Together, they read their card, discuss its meaning, and decide which poster ("Past Simple" or "Past Continuous") is the correct match.

Once they have decided, they go to the board and stick their card on the chosen poster. After all pairs have placed their cards, the students participate in the review led by the teacher, explaining their choices when prompted and listening to other pairs’ explanations. They ask questions if they’re uncertain about any definitions, reinforcing their understanding of the differences between the two tenses.

In groups, students listen to the instructions and begin matching the questions with answers on their Tarsia puzzle pieces. They discuss each match to ensure accuracy and work together to complete the puzzle. If they encounter difficulties, they try to solve them as a team or ask the teacher for guidance. After finishing, students review their answers and participate in the teacher-led discussion on any challenging parts.

In groups, students listen to the instructions and begin working together to translate the sentences using the past simple and past continuous. For each correct translation, they receive a coin, motivating them to strive for accurate answers. The students discuss each sentence, decide on the appropriate tense, and double-check their answers before submitting them for review.

As they progress, they gather their coins and continue until they’ve answered all questions correctly. Once they’ve collected all coins, the group wins the cube, and they celebrate their teamwork and success.

Students listen to the instructions, form groups, and log in to the “Interacty” platform. Each group selects a box and begins answering the questions inside. Working collaboratively, they discuss each question, share ideas, and ensure they reach a group consensus before submitting their answers.

Once they complete their questions, students await the teacher’s feedback and participate in the class review, sharing insights and clarifying any difficult points with their classmates.
