A .STUDENTS AND SETTINGS
Students
Fifth grade ( ages 13-14); pre- intermediate ESL. Children
have no exposure to English outside of class. There are 13 children in the
class. English is practiced 45 minutes three times a week. They have been
having English from 8 years old.
Settings
This is a Secondary School where I have three lessons a day
with different children.
B .LESSON BACKGROUND
Students are reading a love story. In previous classes they
have read a classical story . Students have learnt some words about each story
they read. They have listened to them and have done some grammar exercises
previous lessons.The learners have read the interesting stories and
discussed them in pairs and in groups. I am expanding a previously learned
point. The following this lesson I will suggest children written practice
according the topic as a homework. This is a reading lesson. It is the fourth
lesson in the topic.
C. LEARNING OBJECTIVES/EXPECTED RESULTS
The aim of the lesson is to expand students` vocabulary,
to tell a love story according a plan (enclosed) .This lesson in the series
of activities leading to students` creative writing about love , based on the
text they have read. They will write their own real story as a homework. They
will be able to use new vocabulary, their oral performance during the
discussion. Their creative writings will be evaluated by their peers and their
teacher. The lesson will allow students to express their attitude to the topic,
their thoughts and maybe feelings.

Plan for creative writing

2. It was about…
F. ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENT
For this class, the teacher will make a note of students`
reading and speaking. She will help students with vocabulary and phrasing as
they speak t.She will check individually with students who had problems with
reading and speaking. The teacher uses a simple checklist of student names to
keep track of which students have read and spoken.
G. REFLECTION
This lesson integrates reading , speaking and making up
sinquans in a small group. So it integrates different skills: reading, oral
performance and writing (as a homework). The lesson includes alternative
assessment during the group activity and later when I speak individually with
students who couldn`t read. This will help me find out which students need
more help with reading and speaking assignments. I will keep track of the
students who need more help, and check later in the term to see their progress.
This is a new lesson plan.
In the lesson plan I used differentiated instructions when I
explained how to make up a sinquan.
.As all the groups are mixed, so I suggested to higher level
students help those who had difficulties.
Students worked together and taught each other. So they
listened
to their peers` answers and could evaluate them. I organized
the class, observed the pair work, group
work and individual work. I could control students`
discipline, too. All the learners were quite busy at
the lesson. They had no time for misbehavior. The students
were interested in the topic. Some pictures kept their motivation. Different
types of work at the lesson kept their motivation, too. They
didn`t notice when the lesson was over.
