Telling The Time
Beginner level

Description

In this lesson students will learn how to tell the time based on the vocabulary exercise including diagrams. First they will review what they know from the previous lesson and then they will have an exercise in which they will decide whether the written time and the clock matches with eachother. They will have a listening practice about the word stress in the vocabulary they've just learnt. They will work in pairs to say different versions of time. They will learn what "am & pm" are. Then they will have a speaking activity in which they will tell what times are morning,evening, etc. for them. After that they will have a speaking activity to tell their favourite time of the day. Finally they will complete sentences with "good morning, good afternoon, etc. Depending on the time they'll play a game on the board. I'll write many differen times on the board. The students -as two groups in line- point to the time I say.
