⦁Music video, Bruno Mars's song "Count on me."

⦁12 copies of lyrics worksheets

Aims:

Main Aims:

⦁The students will predict the meaning of the first conditional by watching and listening to Mars's song, "Count on me."

⦁The students will know the form of the first conditional by teacher's explanation.

Secondary Aims:

⦁The students will practice the first conditional by sharing their experience.

⦁The students will practice speaking and listening ability by discussing with a group and present each other's opinion.

Personal Aims:

⦁I want to give a clear instructions and demonstrations to the students.

⦁I want to have confidence and try the inductive approach.

Language Skills:

Reading : Students should read worksheets to answer questions.

Listening : Students should listen to the music, teacher's instructions,

explanation, and classmates' idea.

Speaking : Students should practice activities, drilling, share their ideas.

Writing : Students should write worksheet answers and doing homework.

Language Systems:

Phonology :　Correct pronunciation by drilling

Lexis : I'll, you'll, count on someone

Grammar : Use of first conditional (If + Subject + Present Verb, Subject + will/other modal + Base Verb )

Function : Describing things which are possible in the present or future - things which may happen.

Discourse : Discussing and presentation about 1st conditional

Assumptions:

⦁Most of students know the zero conditional in a previous lesson.

⦁The students know will/other modal

⦁The students are able to fill in the blank worksheet.

⦁The students are able to make a sentence.

Anticipated Errors and Solutions:

⦁Some students may have difficulty in understand the meaning .

→ Teacher provides more examples and explanation.

⦁The activities may run short than expected.

→ Prepare SOS / Give students more time of final activity.

⦁Some students may have difficulty in coming up with their own ideas or

experiences.

→ Give them an enough time to think and elicit them.

Procedure

1. RECALL

Did you guys enjoy the song?

Now I want to discuss with your groups about the story of the song and as possible fill in the blank. I'll give you 3 minutes to discuss.

(play the song during working)

ICQs:

How much time do you have? (3minutes)

What do you discuss about? (story and fill in the blank)

Do you guys tell me the story?

Let's check the blank. what is the first one?

(Let students discuss. After 3minutes let groups take turns to tell me the story of the video. and show the video one more time and check the blank)

2. REFLECT

Great! Can you find why he was saying that sentence?

"If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea, I will sail the world find you."

"If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see,

I'll be the light to guide you"

"If you're tossing and you're turning and you just can't fall asleep,

I'll sing a song beside you"

"if you ever forget how much you really mean to me,

Everyday I will remind you"

CCQs:

-Did he really find himself stuck in the middle of the sea?

-Did he lost?

-Was he tossing and can't he fall asleep?

-Did he forget how much you really mean to him?

I wish I had good friends like that.

Elicit

Can you guys find something in common?

Great! If you ~ , I will ~

Elicit the 1st conditional tense from students.

3. CONCLUDE

every body well done! Do you guys guess how do we call the sentence like we've just learned? It is a 1st conditional.

(Write 1st conditional on the board)

For example, it is morning. You are at home. You plan to play tennis this afternoon. But there are some clouds in the sky. Imagine that it rains. What will you do?

Discuss with your partner how we can make sentence and what tense we can use. I will give you 1 minute! go ahead!

ICQs:

what should we talk about?(make sentence, tense)

How much time we have?(1 minute)

"If it rains, I will stay at home."

How do you think about that?

Let's see. Is it possible to rain future?

Great! The first conditional is used to talk about things which are possible in the present or the future - things which may happen

CCQs:

Let's see the sentence.

Is it raining now?(No, It is not raining yet. )

Is it possible to rain? (Y)

Is this situation real or imagining? (real)

Which are we talking about the past, present, or future? (The future)

Form

The first conditional is used to talk about things which are possible in the present or the future. The first conditional form is If + Subject + Present Verb, Subject + will/other modal + Base Verb. And we can change like that.

If she eats too much every day, she won't loose weight.

she won't loose weight if she eats to much every day.

CCQs: Does she eat too much every day?(N)

Does she loose weight?(N)

Is it possible to change result?(Y)

IF	condition	result
	Present simple	Will + base verb
If	it rains	I will stay at home

result	IF	condition
Will + base verb		Present simple
I will stay at home	If	it rains

Drilling

Okay. Do you have good memorization? We are going to do relay game!!! yeah~~~!!!

What do you think about busan or what will you bring to Busan?

Come up with.

( Haeundae, Gwangalli Beach, seed pancake, Pigs' Feet, Taejongdae Park, Jagalchi Market, sashimi, sunglasses, water, chip, cap, money, swimsuit, camera ...)

I will start , 'If I go to busan, I will go to Haeundae.'

Next student will take my result clause and make their new sentence.

for example, Julia can say If I go to busan, I will go to haeundae and eat sashimi.

You can choose same thing. Are you understand?

ICQs: What are we going to do? (Relay game)

Everyone should choose different thing? (N)
