Procedure

Warmer/Lead-in (5-10 minutes) • To set lesson context and engage students

The teacher starts with short circle time and asks students about the weather. The weather condition can transit the topic to the question of what are we wearing in this weather. Then the teacher plays a song for students to sing and dance. Song: This Is The Way We Get Dressed | Kids Songs | Super Simple.

Exposure (8-15 minutes) • To provide context for the target language through a text or situation

The teacher starts with what color is the puppet wearing and what is he wearing. The puppet's name is Caly (the calculator). He greets students and he wants to learn the new words for clothes. The teacher shares the flashcards on PowerPoint.

Highlighting (5-7 minutes) • To draw students' attention to the target language

The teacher and the puppet (Caly) ask about the students' clothes: What are you wearing? Students ask each other, in pairs what are you wearing? (controlled practice). The teacher needs to be sure all the students have the chance to talk.

Controlled Practice (8-15 minutes) • To concept check and prepare students for more meaningful practice

The teacher shares the game on the screen and asks students to click and guess the name of the clothes. https://wordwall.net/resource/62234592

Semi-Controlled Practice (20-35 minutes) • To concept check further and prepare students for free practice

The teacher checks the concept of a wardrobe, asks students what to hang in the wardrobe, and shares the papers with students that they have colored by their own choice of colors before. At this stage, students start to design their own wardrobe. They need to cut the items and stick to their favorite place.

Extra time (10-15 minutes) • Practice the new words

If time allows, the teacher continue the lesson with PowerPoint about different clothes in different weather and places. The pictures help students to understand why we wear different clothes at different times.
