I. Objectives

1. Knowledge

  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
  • Pronounce words with optional elision of unstressed vowels, such as 'different' and 'family', and recognise the careful forms as acceptable.
  • Explain the form and use of the gerund: as subject, as object, and after a preposition.
  • Use the topic vocabulary of the unit (ASEAN, exchange, cultural, participant, proposal, cooperate) accurately in context.
  • Choose the correct gerund form in sentences and give reasons for the choice.

2. Competences

a) General competences

  • Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs and groups to match vocabulary, read aloud, and plan a welcome event using gerunds.
  • Problem-solving and creativity: Ss decide which gerund form fits each sentence, explain the grammar reason, and create their own sentences for a welcome event.

b) Specific competences

  • Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss listen to and repeat the model sentences, read the practice sentences aloud, and write short sentences with gerunds about an ASEAN exchange programme.
  • Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss apply elision of vowels in natural speech, use the six topic words correctly, and use gerunds as subject, object and after prepositions.

3. Personal qualities

  • Diligence: Ss complete all practice items and redo the items they answered wrongly.
  • Responsibility: Ss take their assigned role in group work and finish their part of the welcome event plan on time.

III. Procedures

Activity 1: Warm-up · 5 minutes

Warm-up: Welcoming visitors

a) Aims

Ss activate prior knowledge about welcoming foreign visitors and notice -ing forms used after verbs and in sentences about activities.

b) Content

T shows a picture or slide of students welcoming ASEAN visitors at a school gate. T asks Ss to look at the sentences on the board and say what is happening: 'Meeting new people is exciting.' 'We enjoy showing visitors around.' Ss find the words ending in -ing and say which words are verbs.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss identify the -ing words 'Meeting' and 'showing' and realise that these verb forms are used as nouns in the sentences. Ss predict that today's lesson is about the gerund and the elision of vowels in fast speech.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the picture and asks: 'What are the students doing? What activities are mentioned?' T writes the two sentences on the board.

    Students

    Ss look at the picture and the sentences, and answer orally: 'They are welcoming visitors.'

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to underline all -ing words and decide if each one is a verb or a noun in its sentence.

    Students

    Ss work individually for one minute. Expected answer: 'Meeting' and 'showing' are used like nouns; they name the activities.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on 2-3 Ss to share their answers and asks: 'Can we use the verb meet directly at the beginning of the sentence?'

    Students

    Ss answer: 'No, we need meeting, because it is the subject.' Other Ss add examples of their own.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms that an -ing form used as a noun is called a gerund and introduces today's topic: gerunds and elision of vowels, with the six topic words.

    Students

    Ss write the title 'Language: Gerunds and Elision' in their notebooks.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Vocabulary: Key words of the unit

a) Aims

Ss pronounce and understand the six topic words and use them in context.

b) Content

T presents the six words: ASEAN (Hiệp hội các quốc gia Đông Nam Á), exchange (giao lưu), cultural (văn hoá), participant (người tham gia), proposal (đề xuất), cooperate (hợp tác). T models each word, Ss repeat in chorus and then individually. T asks Ss to use each word in a short sentence about the ASEAN exchange programme.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss pronounce the six words correctly and give one example sentence for each. Example sentences: 'Our school joined a cultural exchange with ASEAN countries.' 'Each participant received a welcome card.' 'The teacher made a proposal to cooperate with a partner school.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the six words on slides and says: 'Listen and repeat. Then tell me what each word means.'

    Students

    Ss listen carefully and look at the words on the screen.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T models each word, then asks Ss to repeat in chorus and individually. T monitors and corrects stress and sounds.

    Students

    Ss repeat the words, and try to match each word with its Vietnamese meaning in their notebooks.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks: 'Which word means a group of cooperating countries in Southeast Asia?' and 'What is the Vietnamese meaning of proposal?' T invites Ss to make one sentence with each word.

    Students

    Ss answer: 'ASEAN' and 'đề xuất'. Some Ss say their sentences, for example: 'We cooperate with other participants.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T gives feedback on pronunciation and meaning and reminds Ss to record the six words in their vocabulary notebook.

    Students

    Ss copy the words and their meanings into their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Pronunciation: Elision of vowels

a) Aims

Ss recognise that an unstressed vowel may be omitted in natural speech and read sentences with optional elision.

b) Content

T writes the words 'different' /ˈdɪfrənt/ and 'family' /ˈfæmli/ on the board, and also the careful forms /ˈdɪfərənt/ and /ˈfæməli/. T plays or models the sentence 'Different families will join the cultural programme.' T explains that the unstressed vowel may be left out in natural speech, that both forms are acceptable, and that elision must not remove a stressed vowel or make the word unclear.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss can say that in 'different' and 'family' the unstressed vowel may be omitted, and that the careful and natural forms are both acceptable. Ss read the sentence 'Different families will join the cultural programme' with the natural form and identify that the stressed syllables are kept.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T writes the two words with their two pronunciations on the board and asks: 'Which vowel sound may be dropped in fast speech?'

    Students

    Ss look at the phonetic transcriptions and listen to the model.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T models the careful and natural pronunciations. T asks Ss to repeat both forms and notice which vowel is missing in the natural form.

    Students

    Ss listen, repeat both forms, and mark the unstressed vowel in the transcription. Expected answer: the second vowel in 'different' and in 'family' is unstressed.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks 2-3 pairs to read the sentence 'Different families will join the cultural programme' aloud, one with careful speech and one with natural speech.

    Students

    Pairs read the sentence. Ss say: 'The stressed sounds are still clear in both versions.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises: elision is optional, the careful form is also correct, and no stressed vowel is removed. T reminds Ss that the meaning must always remain clear.

    Students

    Ss write the rule in their notebooks: 'Unstressed vowel may be omitted; stressed vowel is kept.'

Activity 2.3: Knowledge formation · 20 minutes

Grammar: The gerund

a) Aims

Ss identify the form and use of gerunds as subject, object and after a preposition, and explain why a gerund rather than a bare verb is needed.

b) Content

T writes the examples on the board: 'Learning another language takes time.' 'We enjoy meeting visitors.' 'She is interested in joining.' T asks Ss to find the -ing form in each sentence and say its function. T then gives the sentence 'Organising a welcome event needs teamwork.' and asks Ss to identify the gerund and its object. T introduces the rule: 'A gerund is an -ing form used as a noun.' Ss copy the rule and examples into their notebooks.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss can state the rule: a gerund is an -ing form used as a noun. Ss explain three uses: as subject ('Learning another language takes time', singular verb), as object ('We enjoy meeting visitors'), and after a preposition ('She is interested in joining'). Ss note that a gerund can take an object: 'Organising a welcome event' takes 'a welcome event' as its object, and the verb 'needs' is singular.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T writes the three example sentences on the board and asks: 'Find the -ing forms. What is their function in each sentence?'

    Students

    Ss look at the sentences and answer in pairs.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T guides Ss with questions: 'What is the verb after enjoy: a bare verb or an -ing form?' 'Why is the verb takes singular?' 'What word comes before joining?' T monitors pairs.

    Students

    Ss discuss in pairs. Expected answers: 'enjoy' is followed by an -ing form; 'Learning another language' is one singular unit, so the verb takes is singular; 'in' is a preposition, so the next word is an -ing form.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on pairs to share answers and asks: 'Can we say She is interested in join?' 'Can we say We enjoy meet visitors?'

    Students

    Ss answer: 'No, we must use joining and meeting.' Ss correct the sentences on the board.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the three uses of the gerund and the rule: avoid a bare verb where a gerund is required. T shows the sentence 'Organising a welcome event needs teamwork' and points out the gerund phrase.

    Students

    Ss copy the summary of the grammar box into their notebooks.

Activity 3.1: Practice · 20 minutes

Practice: Choosing the correct gerund form

a) Aims

Ss choose the correct form (gerund, bare verb, infinitive or verb with -s) in sentences about ASEAN exchange activities.

b) Content

Ss work in groups of four on Worksheet 1 (eight items). Ss complete the items, then compare answers with another group. Item 1 is a gerund phrase as subject. Items 2 to 8 cover gerunds after enjoy, after a preposition, after suggest, after for, after look forward to, and as subject again.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss complete Worksheet 1 with the following answers: 1. A (Meeting new people helps me understand different views). 2. D (We enjoy showing visitors around). 3. C (She is interested in joining the exchange). 4. B (Organising two events requires careful planning). 5. A (They suggested making a welcome board). 6. D (Thank you for visiting our school). 7. C (I look forward to hearing from you). 8. B (Listening respectfully is as important as speaking).

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T distributes Worksheet 1 and explains the task: 'Choose the best answer. Explain why in one sentence.' T sets a time limit of 10 minutes.

    Students

    Ss read the instructions and the eight items in their groups.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T circulates, checks group work and prompts Ss who are stuck: 'Which word is before the blank? Is it a verb, a preposition or a subject?'

    Students

    Ss discuss and fill in the answers. Expected difficulty: item 4, where the subject is 'Organising two events' (singular gerund phrase) and the verb must be requires.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks each group to read out one answer and reason. T confirms the answer key and asks Ss to check their own answers.

    Students

    Ss read their answers. For example: 'Item 7: look forward to is followed by a gerund because to is a preposition here.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T highlights the common mistake: using a bare verb or to-infinitive after a preposition or enjoy. T asks Ss to correct any wrong answers in their notebooks.

    Students

    Ss correct their mistakes and write the key pattern: preposition + -ing; enjoy + -ing; suggest + -ing.

Activity 3.2: Practice · 10 minutes

Practice: Matching words and reading aloud

a) Aims

Ss match the topic words with their meanings and read a practice sentence aloud, using elision in natural speech.

b) Content

Task 1: Ss match each topic word with its meaning: ASEAN, exchange, cultural, participant, proposal, cooperate. Task 2: Ss read the practice aloud twice, first slowly and then at a natural pace: 'Different families will join the cultural programme.' Elision is optional and must not remove a stressed vowel.

c) Expected outcomes

Task 1 key: ASEAN - Hiệp hội các quốc gia Đông Nam Á; exchange - giao lưu; cultural - văn hoá; participant - người tham gia; proposal - đề xuất; cooperate - hợp tác. Task 2: Ss read the sentence twice and can explain that the unstressed vowel may be dropped in natural speech while stressed syllables remain clear. Teacher assessment (out of 10): correct focus on elision (4), clear sounds and meaning (3), natural rhythm (2), self-correction after feedback (1).

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T gives Task 1 and Task 2 on the board and explains the scoring rubric for the reading task.

    Students

    Ss read the tasks and prepare their answers individually for one minute.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to match the words in pairs, then reads the practice sentence aloud as a model. T asks Ss to read it twice, slowly then naturally.

    Students

    Pairs match the words. Ss practise the sentence and listen to a partner's reading.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on 3 Ss to read aloud and asks the class to give feedback on clarity and natural pace. T checks the matching answers aloud.

    Students

    Ss read the sentence and give feedback, for example: 'Your reading is clear, and you drop the vowel in family.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the key and explains that the careful and natural forms are both acceptable, provided the meaning stays clear.

    Students

    Ss self-assess their reading with the rubric and write one improvement in their notebooks.

Activity 4: Application · 15 minutes

Application: Planning a welcome event

a) Aims

Ss use gerunds and topic vocabulary in a real-life situation: planning a welcome event for ASEAN exchange participants.

b) Content

In groups of four, Ss imagine that their school will welcome participants from an ASEAN country. Each group writes a short plan of 6 to 8 sentences, using at least four gerunds: one as subject, one as object, one after a preposition, and one after a verb such as suggest or enjoy. Each group must use at least three topic words (ASEAN, exchange, cultural, participant, proposal, cooperate). One student presents the plan to the class, and the class asks questions.

c) Expected outcomes

Each group produces a written welcome event plan with 6 to 8 correct sentences, for example: 'Organising a welcome event needs teamwork.' 'We enjoy showing participants around the school.' 'We suggest making a welcome board.' 'Our proposal is to cooperate with a partner school.' The plan is presented orally, and Ss answer at least one question from the class.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T explains the task, shows the criteria (gerund forms, topic words, teamwork) and gives groups a plan template on the board.

    Students

    Ss read the criteria and assign roles: writer, checker, presenter and timekeeper.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors groups and helps with gerund forms. T reminds Ss: 'Check whether the verb after the preposition is in the -ing form.'

    Students

    Ss write their plans. Expected sentences include 'Preparing a welcome speech takes time' and 'We are interested in learning about ASEAN culture.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T invites one presenter from each group to present. T asks the class: 'Which gerund is the subject in this sentence?' and 'Why is the verb singular here?'

    Students

    Presenters read their plans. The class asks questions and answers them, for example: 'The gerund phrase is singular, so the verb is singular.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T gives feedback on the most accurate and creative plan, and summarises the uses of gerunds in the lesson.

    Students

    Ss note the feedback and revise their plans for homework.
