Activity 1: Warm-up · 4 minutes
Reading the exhibition label
a) Aims
Ss activate prior knowledge about traditional music and predict what a project product on 'Music' should contain.
b) Content
T shows the title line of the model: 'Traditional-music exhibition — completed label: Xoan singing, Phú Thọ, Viet Nam.' Ss answer three questions:
- What is the topic of this project product?
- Who do you think the audience of an exhibition label is?
- What information should appear after the title?
c) Expected outcomes
Ss predict at least three items a label should contain (for example: title, audience, source, practical limits) and identify the topic as Xoan singing of Phú Thọ, a traditional music of Viet Nam.
d) Organisation
Teacher's activities
Students' activities
Teacher
Step 1: Task delivering
T shows the title line on the slide and asks the three questions. T gives 1 minute of individual thinking time.
Students
Ss read the title silently and think about the three questions individually.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T monitors and encourages Ss to use the words 'exhibition', 'label' and 'audience'.
Students
Ss turn to a partner and share their predictions for 1 minute. Expected answer: 'The topic is Xoan singing. The audience is visitors. The label should have the source and the date.'
Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion
T invites 2–3 pairs to share and writes their predictions on the board.
Students
Representatives report. Expected answers: 'The label should include a title, the audience, the source and a short explanation.'
Teacher
Step 4: Conclusion and assessment
T confirms that the project product is an attributed exhibition label and a two-minute oral introduction, and links it to the unit topic 'Music'. T writes the lesson title on the board.
Students
Ss copy the lesson title and the key idea: a project product needs a clear title, an audience, sources and honest limits.
