I. Objectives

1. Language and specific competences

By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
- Read, understand and use the words and phrases: last summer, last weekend, yesterday, holiday.
- Ask and answer the question 'Where were you last summer?' and reply with 'I was in + city' or 'I was at + place'.
- Use was/were correctly for past places, and use 'Were you...?' with 'Yes, I was' / 'No, I wasn't'.
Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss listen to a short dialogue and choose the correct answer, ask and answer 'Where were you last summer?' in pairs, and write two turns of their own dialogue.
Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss pronounce 'last summer', 'last weekend', 'yesterday' and 'holiday' correctly, use the vocabulary of the unit, and use was/were with the correct subject in past sentences.

2. General competences

Self-control and independent learning: Ss repeat new words on their own, cover the meaning to check their memory, and correct their own answers after checking with the class.
Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs and in a group game to ask and answer about where they were last summer, and listen to their partners politely.
Problem-solving and creativity: Ss use word cards to build correct sentences, and change the information in the dialogue to talk about their own holidays.

3. Personal qualities

Diligence: Ss practise the new words and the dialogue carefully at home and in class, and complete all exercises on time.
Responsibility: Ss take turns in pair work and group games, and each member finishes their own card task and writing task.

Activity 1: Warm-up and review · 8 minutes

Summer memories picture guessing

Aims

To activate Ss' prior knowledge about summer holidays and prepare them for the topic 'Where were you last summer?'.

Content

T shows pictures of a beach, a campsite, Da Nang and Hue one by one. Ss guess the place and say where they think T went last summer. Ss then answer the warm-up questions: 'Where do you like to go on holiday?' and 'Where is this?'.

Expected outcomes

Ss name at least three places in English and use the phrase 'It's the beach / It's Da Nang' correctly.

Procedure

Teacher's activities

Pupils' activities

Teacher
T greets the class and shows the picture of a beach. T asks: 'Where is this?'. T then shows the other pictures and asks: 'Where were you last summer?' (T models the answer: 'I was at the beach.').
Pupils
Ss look at the pictures and answer in chorus: 'It's the beach.' / 'It's Da Nang.' Some Ss answer the question with their own ideas, e.g. 'I was at the campsite.'
Teacher
T asks individual Ss to guess the place from a picture and then say 'Where were you last summer?' to a partner. T gives praise and corrects pronunciation gently.
Pupils
Ss work in pairs. One S points to a picture and asks, 'Where were you last summer?'. The partner answers with a place (e.g. 'I was at the beach.'). Pairs swap roles.
Teacher
T calls on 3-4 pairs to report their answers to the class.
Pupils
Representative Ss say the answer in front of the class, e.g. 'He was in Da Lat last summer.'
Teacher
T writes the question 'Where were you last summer?' on the board and says: 'Today we will learn how to ask and answer this question.'
Pupils
Ss copy the title of the lesson into their notebooks.

Activity 2.1: Exploration · 14 minutes

Look, listen and repeat: new words

Aims

To help Ss read, understand and pronounce four new words: last summer, last weekend, yesterday, holiday.

Content

T presents the four words with flashcards and real objects or gestures. Ss repeat the words, cover the meaning, and try to name the word by themselves. Ss do not spell letter by letter.

Expected outcomes

Ss can read the four words aloud, match each word with its Vietnamese meaning (mùa hè trước, cuối tuần trước, hôm qua, kì nghỉ) and use gestures to remember them.

Procedure

Teacher's activities

Pupils' activities

Teacher
T shows the flashcard 'last summer' with a picture of a sunny beach. T says the word, then asks Ss to repeat in chorus: 'last summer'. T repeats for the other three words: 'last weekend', 'yesterday', 'holiday'.
Pupils
Ss listen carefully and repeat in chorus, then individually. Ss pay attention to the stress of each word.
Teacher
T uses gestures: for 'yesterday' T points backwards; for 'last weekend' T makes a sign of a calendar; for 'holiday' T pretends to swim or relax. T asks Ss to cover the meaning and say the word. T asks: 'What does holiday mean?'.
Pupils
Ss follow the gestures, repeat, and name the word by themselves. Expected answer: 'Holiday means kì nghỉ.'
Teacher
T calls on individual Ss to read a word card and give its meaning. T checks pronunciation of 'last summer' and 'yesterday'.
Pupils
Ss read the words aloud and say the Vietnamese meaning, e.g. 'Last summer means mùa hè trước.'
Teacher
T summarises: 'Last summer, last weekend and yesterday are time words. Holiday is a noun.' T writes the four words on the board.
Pupils
Ss write the four words and their meanings in their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Exploration · 14 minutes

Listen, point and say: Where were you last summer?

Aims

To help Ss understand and use the structure 'Where were you last summer?' and the answer 'I was in ...', 'Were you ...?' with 'Yes, I was / No, I wasn't'.

Content

T presents the dialogue: A: Where were you last summer? B: I was in Da Nang. T explains the key language: use was/were (not am/is/are) for past places; 'Were you...?' is used for questions; answer 'Yes, I was' or 'No, I wasn't'; 'Where were you...?' asks about a place; use 'at the beach / at the campsite' and 'in + city name'; 'last summer' and 'last weekend' do not need 'in' or 'on' before them.

Expected outcomes

Ss can say the dialogue correctly, explain why was/were is used and use 'at' or 'in' correctly in short sentences.

Procedure

Teacher's activities

Pupils' activities

Teacher
T plays the dialogue from the NeoEdu lesson page or reads it aloud with a partner. T points to the picture of Da Nang on the board and asks: 'Where was Nam last summer?'.
Pupils
Ss listen and point to the picture. Expected answer: 'He was in Da Nang.'
Teacher
T asks: 'Is it past or present?' (Ss: past, because of 'last summer'). T asks: 'Which verb do we use for I: am, is or was?' (Ss: was). T models 'Were you...?' and asks Ss to answer 'Yes, I was.' T writes three examples: 'Were you at the beach? - Yes, I was.' 'Were you in Hue? - No, I wasn't.' 'Where were you last weekend? - I was at home.'
Pupils
Ss repeat the sentences in chorus and in pairs. Ss answer the questions and say the correct form: 'I was', 'You were', 'Yes, I was', 'No, I wasn't'.
Teacher
T asks Ss to point and say the sentences: 'Point to Da Nang and say: I was in Da Nang.'. T checks the use of at and in: 'We say at the beach, but in Da Nang.'.
Pupils
Ss point to the pictures and say the sentences. Some Ss explain: 'We say in Da Nang because Da Nang is a city.'
Teacher
T summarises the grammar box on the board: Where were you last summer? - I was in Da Nang. Were you...? - Yes, I was / No, I wasn't. T reminds Ss: 'Last summer does not need in or on.'
Pupils
Ss copy the key structures into their notebooks and repeat the structure once more.
