Here are a few ideas to introduce the lesson on "at school" while focusing on listening and speaking skills:
1. Warm-up activity: Begin the lesson with a quick warm-up activity. You can ask the students to brainstorm the various places and activities they often encounter at school, such as classrooms, playgrounds, teachers, and subjects they study. Encourage them to share their ideas orally with the class, facilitating a brief discussion.
2. Vocabulary guessing game: Prepare a list of school-related words or phrases, such as "homework," "recess," "math class," or "school bus." Divide the class into pairs or small groups and give each group a set of vocabulary cards. One student will pick a card and describe the word to their partner(s) without using the actual word. The other students listen carefully and try to guess the word being described. This game will enhance listening skills and promote speaking as students describe and guess the words.
3. Picture description: Prepare a set of pictures related to school life, such as a classroom, cafeteria, library, or gymnasium. Show each picture to the class and ask them to describe what they see. Encourage students to use complete sentences, describe the people, objects, and activities happening in the pictures. They can take turns sharing their descriptions while the rest of the students listen attentively.
4. Role-plays: Divide the class into pairs or small groups and provide them with different school settings or situations. Assign each group a specific scenario, such as "a student asking a teacher for help," "two friends discussing their favorite subjects," or "a student explaining their daily routine." Students can then role-play these situations and practice effective listening and speaking skills to carry out their roles.
5. Listening comprehension: Choose an audio clip related to school life, such as a dialogue between students, a school announcement, or a teacher giving instructions. Play the audio for the students, and then distribute a set of questions or statements about the content. Ask students to listen carefully and answer the questions or identify true/false statements. Afterward, encourage students to discuss their answers in pairs or small groups, fostering discussion and strengthening both listening and speaking skills.
Remember to provide ample opportunities for students to actively engage in speaking and listening activities throughout the lesson, encouraging their participation and providing constructive feedback.
