Giáo án Lesson 2

Warm up the class, activate prior knowledge of job words and get Ss ready to listen and speak in English.

T mimes one job at a time (cooking, singing, working on a farm, studying at school) and Ss guess the word. Ss then say the word aloud, for example: A cook! Then T asks: Is he a cook? to lead into the pattern.

Ss name at least three jobs in English and respond to a simple question from T with a short answer.

Help Ss recognise, pronounce and understand the four job words and the sentence pattern Is he/she a + job? in context.

Ss look at the pictures of cook, farmer, singer and pupil (Look, listen and repeat), listen to the audio twice and repeat chorally and individually. In Listen, point and say, Ss listen to the questions and point to the correct picture or say the answer Yes, he is. / No, he isn't.

Ss pronounce the four words clearly and correctly, and respond to the pattern Is he/she a + job? by pointing and saying the answer.

Help Ss use the question and answer pattern about jobs in a meaningful pair conversation, with correct he/she choice and a complete answer.

Ss practise the model conversation Is he a farmer? Yes, he is. in pairs. Then they change the names, the job words or the picture cues and take turns asking and answering. Ss may add a correct job for a picture cue, for example: She's a cook.

Each pair completes at least three exchanges with correct questions and answers, and each pair role-plays with a change of roles.

Help Ss check their understanding of the words and pattern through listening and reading tasks, and write the correct answers for the sentence pattern.

Ss complete Exercises 1 to 5 of Lesson 2 in Worksheet No. 1: listen and choose the word they hear (cook, farmer, singer); listen and choose the sentence they hear (Yes, he is.); match the words with their meanings; read the sentence Yes, he ___. and fill in is; choose the correct sentence with the same pattern. Ss use the NeoEdu interactive page to check their answers after the paper task.

Worksheet No. 1 completed with the following answers: 1 - C (cook); 2 - B (Yes, he is.); 3 - cook: đầu bếp; farmer: nông dân; singer: ca sĩ; pupil: học sinh; 4 - is; 5 - C (Yes, he is.).

Help Ss practise listening, choosing and responding with the correct word and pattern in a fun pair game, and switch roles to practise both asking and answering.

Each pair has four word cards: cook, farmer, singer, pupil. One student says one word aloud. The partner finds the card and answers with the pattern Yes, he is. with the correct word. A correct word and correct pattern gets one point. After four turns, the students switch roles. If Ss work alone, they turn the cards face down, draw one card, say the sentence, and write down the word they need to practise more.

Each pair completes four turns with at least two correct role changes and a score sheet. Ss also complete Exercises 6 and 7 from Lesson 2: sentence ordering (Is she a cook?) and reading (My father is a cook. - Dad's job is cook).

Help Ss use the vocabulary and the pattern Is he/she a + job? in a real-life setting, and create a simple job poster that shows what they know.

In groups of four, Ss draw a poster with pictures of four jobs (cook, farmer, singer, pupil), write the words, and make a short job-fair dialogue. Group members take turns to ask: Is he/she a + job? and answer Yes, he/she is. / No, he/she isn't. Then groups visit each other's stall and ask questions. Ss may add one more job from the textbook if it is in their unit.

Each group produces one job poster with four pictures and labels, and a short dialogue of at least four questions and answers that is performed at the job-fair stall. Each student asks and answers at least one question in English.
