- Discuss previous grammar work with students i.e. naming words, action words and describing words.
- Make sure that students have been introduced to and are familiar with the above concepts.
- While teaching the lesson, the teacher should also consult textbook at all steps where and when applicable.
Material / Resources
Writing board, chalk / marker, duster, pieces of paper or cardboard, thick marker (preferably coloured), 4-5 old shoe boxes or transparent plastic bags, textbook
Introduction
- Make a deck of flash cards by writing different nouns, pronouns, and verbs, e.g. pen, he, eat.
- Old shoe-boxes or envelopes made of chart paper can be hung on the walls and used to classify each word class.
- Use the list at the end of the lesson plan to make flash cards.
- Give five cards to every student and ask them to put them in the box/envelope they belong to (make sure you give different words to each student).
- Students can be asked to maintain a ‘My Word Book’ where they list down new word learnt. This can be done at the back of their notebooks too. It gives students a sense of achievement as they see their word bank increase!
Development
Activity 1
- Write the following poem on a chart paper and paste on the board.
- Read it for the students and instruct them to silently read it.
- Once they have finished reading, read it to them once again, emphasizing (nouns, Pronouns and Verb)
When I visit my cousin When I visit my cousin I always have fun; We play may games, And run in the Sun. Or we sit very quietly, Beside a big fire; And watch TV, Until I get tired. There`s plenty to do, And plenty to eat, And plenty of time. To have our first fight; there I want to go home, That very same night.
