I. Objectives

1. Language and specific competences

  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
  • recognize, read and say the four words: sing (hát), dance (nhảy múa), draw (vẽ), swim (bơi).
  • ask and answer the question Can you swim? with Yes, I can or No, I can't (cannot).
  • explain the use of can: it expresses ability, and it is followed by a base verb with no to and no -s.
  • Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss listen to and repeat the four words, ask and answer Can you swim? in pairs, and write two lines of a short dialogue with correct information.
  • Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss pronounce the words sing, dance, draw and swim with the correct sounds, use the four words correctly, and build affirmative and negative answers with can and can't.

2. General competences

  • Self-control and independent learning: Ss look at the word cards and say each word on their own first, then check their pronunciation with the audio and the teacher before moving on.
  • Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs to ask and answer Can you ...? questions, and listen politely to their partner's answer.
  • Problem-solving and creativity: Ss use gestures, pictures and their own abilities to remember the meaning of new words and to make new answers about themselves or an imaginary character.

3. Personal qualities

  • Diligence: Ss practise the words and the dialogue patiently until they can say them clearly, and they complete all exercises on time.
  • Kindness: Ss respect that each friend has different abilities, and they do not laugh at a friend who cannot do something.

II. Resources and materials

1. Teacher

III. Procedures

Activity 1: Warm-up and review · 8 minutes

Simon Says with Actions

Aims

Ss get ready for the lesson, listen to the four new words and connect them with simple actions.

Content

T plays the game Simon Says. T gives commands such as Simon says sing, Simon says dance, Simon says draw and Simon says swim. Ss do the action only when the command starts with Simon says. Actions must be safe and done in place, for example moving the arms for swim and clapping for sing.

Expected outcomes

Ss stand up, move, listen carefully and show that they understand the four words through actions.

Procedure

  1. Teacher

    T explains the rules: 'When I say Simon says, do the action. If I do not say Simon says, do not move.' T models sing and dance with a big smile.

    Pupils

    Ss listen to the rules and watch T's actions. Ss ask a question if they do not understand, for example 'What is Simon says?'

  2. Teacher

    T gives the commands quickly, such as 'Simon says swim', 'draw', 'dance'. T sometimes gives a command without Simon says to check attention.

    Pupils

    Ss do the actions. Expected answer when T says 'Simon says draw': Ss move their hand as if drawing on the board.

  3. Teacher

    T asks: 'What can you do with your hands when you draw?' and 'What do you do when you swim?'

    Pupils

    Ss answer in Vietnamese or with gestures, for example 'Vẽ bằng tay' or 'Bơi' with arm movements.

  4. Teacher

    T praises the class and says: 'Today we will learn four words: sing, dance, draw, swim.'

    Pupils

    Ss repeat the four words after T and open their textbooks to Unit 5.

Activity 2.1: Exploration · 13 minutes

Look, Listen and Repeat: Four New Words

Aims

Ss recognise the meaning and the pronunciation of sing, dance, draw and swim, and they can name the words without reading each letter.

Content

T shows the word cards and the pictures. T reads each word, then covers the meaning and asks Ss to guess the meaning by gestures or real objects. Ss must say the whole word, not spell it letter by letter. Vocabulary: sing (hát), dance (nhảy múa), draw (vẽ), swim (bơi). Use the NeoEdu presentation for the audio and the animated pictures.

Expected outcomes

Ss can read, say and match the four words with their meanings, and they can point to the correct picture when T says the word.

Procedure

  1. Teacher

    T displays the picture of a child singing and says 'sing'. T asks Ss to repeat. T shows the NeoEdu audio of the four words.

    Pupils

    Ss look at the picture, listen to the audio and repeat the word chorally, then individually.

  2. Teacher

    T reads each word, covers the Vietnamese meaning and asks: 'What does dance mean?' T gives a gesture or a real object as a clue. T calls on individual Ss to name each word.

    Pupils

    Ss answer. Expected answers: 'Dance – nhảy múa' (Ss move their body), 'Draw – vẽ' (Ss draw in the air), 'Swim – bơi' (Ss move arms like swimming), 'Sing – hát' (Ss sing a short line).

  3. Teacher

    T asks a few pairs to show their cards: T says a word and one partner points to the correct picture, then the other partner says the Vietnamese meaning.

    Pupils

    Pairs take turns pointing and saying the word and its meaning. Expected answer: 'Swim – bơi.'

  4. Teacher

    T corrects the pronunciation of the words, especially the sounds in draw and swim, and reminds Ss to say the whole word.

    Pupils

    Ss repeat the corrected words and write the four words in their notebooks with the Vietnamese meaning in brackets.

Activity 2.2: Exploration · 14 minutes

Listen, Point and Say: Can You Swim?

Aims

Ss understand the structure Can you ...? and the answers Yes, I can and No, I can't, and they know that can expresses ability.

Content

T models the dialogue A: Can you swim? B: Yes, I can. T explains: can shows ability; the form is I/He/She can + base verb; questions are Can + person + base verb?; the answers are Yes, ... can or No, ... can't (cannot). There is no to and no -s after can. T may add: I can draw, but I can't swim. Each child can do different things.

Expected outcomes

Ss can ask and answer the question Can you swim? and they can explain in simple words why can is used and what comes after it.

Procedure

  1. Teacher

    T writes on the board: A: Can you swim? B: Yes, I can. T plays the audio and asks Ss to listen and point to the words in their books.

    Pupils

    Ss listen, point to the words and repeat the dialogue in chorus.

  2. Teacher

    T asks: 'Can I draw?' T answers with a gesture: 'No, I can't. I can't draw well.' T asks a few Ss: 'Can you sing?' and waits for answers.

    Pupils

    Ss answer with Yes, I can or No, I can't. Expected answers: 'Can you dance? – Yes, I can.' 'Can you swim? – No, I can't.'

  3. Teacher

    T asks: 'What comes after can: a verb with -s, or a base verb?' and 'Do we say can to swim?' T writes the corrected sentence on the board.

    Pupils

    Ss answer: 'After can, we use a base verb, for example can swim, not can to swim or can swims.'

  4. Teacher

    T summarises the structure on the board and shows the sentence I can draw, but I can't swim. T reminds Ss that everyone has different abilities.

    Pupils

    Ss copy the structure into their notebooks and say one sentence about themselves with can.

Activity 3: Practice · 22 minutes

Let's Play and Exercises

Aims

Ss practise the words and the structure through a card game, listening and writing exercises, and a pair dialogue.

Content

Let's play: pairs take turns holding up a word card (sing, dance, draw, swim). The partner asks Can you ...? and the first player answers with Yes, I can or No, I can't about themselves or an imaginary character. Then Ss do Worksheet 1 (exercises 1 to 7), and finally Ss do Worksheet 2 (exercise 8) in pairs. Do not ask Ss to demonstrate dangerous activities such as swimming in the classroom.

Expected outcomes

Ss complete Worksheet 1 with correct answers and write two lines of a dialogue in Worksheet 2 with correct information. Answers: 1) sing – hát; dance – nhảy múa; draw – vẽ; swim – bơi. 2) C (draw). 3) can. 4) Yes, I can. 5) D (swim). 6) False (sing means hát; dance means nhảy múa). 7) A (Yes, I can.). 8) Pair dialogue: Can you swim? – Yes, I can / No, I can't, with correct information and clear speech.

Procedure

  1. Teacher

    T demonstrates the card game with one volunteer: T holds the card 'draw' and the volunteer asks Can you draw? T answers Yes, I can. T gives the pairs 2 minutes to play and hands out Worksheet 1.

    Pupils

    Ss play the card game in pairs for 2 minutes, then take Worksheet 1 and read the instructions.

  2. Teacher

    T plays the audio for exercises 2 and 7 twice. T monitors, helps weaker pairs and checks exercises 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6. T asks Ss to write the answer and say the reason.

    Pupils

    Ss listen and choose the answers. Expected answers: Ex 2 – C (draw); Ex 7 – A (Yes, I can.). Ss complete Ex 3 (can) and Ex 4 (Yes, I can.).

  3. Teacher

    T calls on Ss to read the answers to Ex 5 and Ex 6. T asks: 'Is sing the same as dance?' Ss explain the difference.

    Pupils

    Expected answers: Ex 5 – D (swim, bơi); Ex 6 – False, because sing means hát and dance means nhảy múa.

  4. Teacher

    T asks pairs to do exercise 8 with Worksheet 2: one partner asks Can you swim?, the other answers and changes the information to match himself, herself or an imaginary character. T gives the pairs 5 minutes and checks the writing.

    Pupils

    Pairs practise the dialogue, then each pair writes two lines in Worksheet 2. Expected dialogue: A: Can you swim? B: No, I can't. I can draw, but I can't swim.

Expected outcomes

Ss report the results of their survey in 3 to 4 sentences, for example: 'Minh can sing, but he can't swim.' Ss practise respect for friends' abilities.
