Giáo án Lesson 2

Ss get ready for the lesson, recall what they know about healthy habits, and remember the word healthy.

Ss sing or chant a short chant ('Eat your vegetables, drink your water, do exercise every day, be healthy, stay happy!') and answer simple questions about their own habits in English. This is Period 1, minutes 1 to 5.

Ss join the chant, say at least two healthy habits in English, and recall the word healthy.

Ss recognise, pronounce and understand the meaning of the eight key words and phrases, with special attention to the sound /θ/ in healthy.

Ss look at the flashcards and listen to the recording. Ss repeat each word or phrase, read it with the picture covered, and then say it from memory. Ss learn the phrases as whole chunks: do exercise regularly, eat vegetables, drink water, every day, in the morning. The word healthy has the sound /θ/: the tongue tip touches lightly between the teeth and air is blown out. T reminds Ss not to change /θ/ to /t/. This is Period 1, minutes 6 to 17 (the activity is shown here as the first explore part).

Ss pronounce the eight items correctly, match them with the flashcards, and say healthy with the sound /θ/.

Ss understand and use the two question forms: How often does she do exercise? (asks about frequency) and How does she stay healthy? (asks about ways to stay healthy); Ss know that does is used in the question and the base verb follows it.

Ss listen to the dialogue A: How often does she do exercise? B: She does exercise every day. T explains the meaning of the two questions and the structure in Vietnamese and English: How often... asks how frequently; How do/does... stay healthy? asks about ways to stay healthy. In questions, use does + base verb (no -s). In the answer, use She does + verb. T notes that the word does appears in both the question and the statement. This is Period 1, minutes 18 to 30.

Ss point to the correct sentence card after listening, say the dialogue in pairs, and explain the meaning of How often ... and How do/does ... stay healthy?.

Ss consolidate the vocabulary and the target sentence by matching the words to their meanings and identifying the sentence they hear.

Ss work in groups of four. Activity 1: Ss match words and meanings (water = nước; healthy = khỏe mạnh; every day = hằng ngày; morning = buổi sáng). Activity 2: Ss choose the correct word or phrase (water, healthy). Activity 3: Ss listen to the audio and choose the correct sentence (A. She does exercise every day.; B. She does morning exercise.; C. Could you say that again, please?). Ss use the key words in the sentence to choose the answer, not only guess from the topic. Ss complete the fill-in: morning. Use Worksheet No. 1 for this activity. This is Period 2, minutes 1 to 12.

Answers for Worksheet No. 1: Matching: water – nước; healthy – khỏe mạnh; every day – hằng ngày; morning – buổi sáng. Choice: 1 – B (water); 2 – C (healthy). Listening: A (She does exercise every day.). Fill-in: morning. Ss get the answers with at least 80 percent correct.

Ss use the two questions in a realistic dialogue, change the names, places and activities, and speak clearly with a partner.

Ss work in pairs. Ss put the conversation in order: Hello! Can we talk? / How often does she do exercise? / She does exercise every day. / Thank you for telling me. Then Ss use Worksheet No. 2 to ask and answer, with at least four turns. Ss ask How does she stay healthy? and answer She does morning exercise. When a partner does not hear clearly, Ss say: Could you say that again, please? Ss do not read the sample answer when they are the questioner. This is Period 2, minutes 13 to 25.

Answers for the ordering task: 1. Hello! Can we talk? 2. How often does she do exercise? 3. She does exercise every day. 4. Thank you for telling me. Choice for Exercise 7: B (How often does she do exercise?). Ss make a dialogue of at least four turns and perform it for the class.

Ss apply the two questions to real life by surveying classmates about their healthy habits and presenting the results on a poster.

Ss work in groups of four. Each S asks two classmates: How often do you do exercise? and How do you stay healthy? Ss record the answers in a simple table on paper (Name / How often / How I stay healthy). Groups then make a healthy-habit poster with the phrases exercise regularly, eat vegetables, drink water every day, do yoga in the morning. Ss present the poster in one or two sentences, for example: Our group does exercise every day. We eat vegetables and drink water. Homework: Ss ask one family member the same two questions. This is Period 2, minutes 26 to 35 (wrap-up and presentation).

A group poster with at least four healthy habits, a short survey record with two classmates' answers, and a short oral presentation of 2 to 3 sentences.
