Instructor: Hwanok Shim(Julia)	Level: Elementary	Students: 12	Length: 50minutes

Materials:

- White board, board markers

- People pictures from different countries

- Listening CD & CD player (Story: approximately 2~3minutes)

- Worksheet #1(words): 14 copies(12copies for each student +2 extra copies)

- Worksheet #2(fill-in-the-blanks): 14 copies(12copies for each student +2        extra copies)

- Worksheet #3(world map): 14 copies(12copies for each student +2 extra         copies)

- Homework paper(fill-in-the-blanks using sight words)

Aims:

- To learn high frequency vocabulary in daily routine by completing blanks and     draw the pictures of them

- To be familiar with the names of country by finding some countries in the       world map and introducing different names of speakers & their home             countries

- To be able to memorize some sight words easily through simple writing          homework

- To practice grammar pattern through listening and repeated sentences(the        use of go and goes)

- To get closer each other by talking things in common within a group

Language skill:

- Reading: words worksheet

- Listening: the speakers' story on the CD about people all over the world         have in common with each other

- Speaking: Prediction, sharing differences or similarities with group members

- Writing: writing some word to complete each sentence on the worksheet, fill     in the puzzle with words from the word box

Language systems:

- Lexis: words used to describe doing things in usual life

- Grammar: verb changes 'go' for the 1st person & the 3rd person(singular)

when listening the repeated grammar pattern

- Phonology: listening to the 'oo' sound and finding the same sound on the         CD.

Assumptions:

Students already know:

- how the class is set up and run(there will be 4 students groups at each

table)

- the teacher's style of teaching and the pace of the course

- all students are at the very beginning step of learning English(Age between

20~23 college students)

- all students have not been abroad and have no basic information about other     foreign countries

Anticipated errors and solutions:

- Students may have difficulties in specific expressions in the story

→Follow the task-feedback circle: let them to listen the CD again until they       get the gist

- Students may not be able to pick up details(e.g country's name) from             listening

→Chunk the listening(pause-play-pause-play)

- Students may need more time to work on work on the words

→If it takes longer than 5minutes, cut answer-checking short by verbally        sharing the answers instead of having students write them on the worksheet

- If time is short

→Cut post discussion activity discussion short and ask 2~3 students to           share something that they do in daily life

- If students finish their task earlier than expected

→Ask as many students as possible about their idea of what they see that       might be different or same as people from various backgrounds
