I. Objectives

1. Knowledge

By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
- Identify the topic and the main details of the text 'River School' (gist and details).
- Match each question with a sentence in the text as evidence.
- Distinguish what the text says from their own ideas.
- Use keywords to summarise the text in three points: topic, two key details, and one opinion with a reason.
- Explain their answer choices and self-correct using the context.

2. Competences

a) General competences

Self-control and independent learning: Ss read the text on their own, look for evidence in the text, and check and correct their answers before the teacher gives feedback.
Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs to share evidence, ask and answer questions, and retell the text to a partner.
Problem-solving and creativity: Ss choose the best evidence for each question and give their own opinion about the gardening club with a reason.

b) Specific competences

Communicative competence in English through reading and speaking: Ss read for gist and details and retell the text in three points from keywords.
Language knowledge (vocabulary, grammar): Ss use the key vocabulary (subject, uniform, classmate, compass, calculator, boarding school, playground, creative) and the simple present tense to describe school routines and activities.

3. Personal qualities

Honesty: Ss admit when they are not sure of an answer and show the sentence in the text as evidence instead of guessing.
Responsibility: Ss complete their worksheets and speaking notes on time and give fair and useful feedback to their partner.

Students' activities

Teacher
Step 1: Task delivering
T shows the school picture and asks the three warm-up questions. T shows each new word with its picture, says it, and asks Ss to repeat chorally and individually.
Students
Ss look at the picture and listen carefully. Ss repeat the new words after T.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T asks Ss to discuss the questions with a partner for one minute.
Students
Ss discuss in pairs. Possible answers: 'We study maths, English and science.' / 'Yes, we wear a white shirt and dark trousers.' / 'There are trees and a football field.'
Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion

Ss listen and copy the new words into their notebooks.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 12 minutes

Reading for gist and details

a) Aims

Ss read the text for the main idea (gist) and for specific details, and separate what the text says from their own ideas.

b) Content

Ss read the text 'River School' silently and answer: 'What is the text about?'. Then Ss complete Worksheet No.1: match each question with the sentence in the text that gives the answer (evidence), and mark each statement as 'Text says' or 'My idea'. Example: 'The gardening club meets on Wednesdays' is in the text; 'I think school gardens are interesting' is my idea.

c) Expected outcomes

Worksheet No.1 answers:

Gist: River School is a small day school near a rice field, and it has a gardening club.
Where is River School? → 'near a rice field' (evidence: 'River School is a small day school near a rice field.')
When do classes start? → 'at seven thirty' (evidence: 'Classes start at seven thirty.')
Why does Lan like the club? → 'She can work with friends and learn about plants.' (evidence: 'Lan likes the club because she can work with friends and learn about plants.')
Statement 'There is a reading room.' → Text says.
Statement 'I think the club is a fun way to learn.' → My idea.

Teacher's activities

Students' activities

Teacher
Step 1: Task delivering
T writes 'River School' on the board and asks: 'What is the topic of this text? Read quickly for one minute.' T explains: 'Gist is the main idea. Details are specific information. Evidence is the sentence in the text that answers the question.' T hands out Worksheet No.1.
Students
Ss listen and read the worksheet instructions. Ss predict the topic from the title.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T monitors and reminds Ss to find key words in each question (where, when, why) and look for the matching sentence. T gives 4 minutes for scanning.
Students
Ss read the text silently (about 2 minutes), then scan for evidence and write answers on Worksheet No.1. Ss check their answers with a partner.
Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion
T asks: 'Where is River School?' and 'Which sentence tells us?' T asks one or two Ss to read the evidence aloud. T asks: 'Is the club fun? Is it in the text?'
Students
Ss answer: 'It is near a rice field.' Ss read the sentence: 'River School is a small day school near a rice field.' Ss may say: 'I think the club is fun.' Then Ss say: 'It is my idea, not in the text.'
Teacher
Step 4: Conclusion and assessment
T summarises the reading skill: 'Read the question, find the key words, locate the sentence, and check whether the information is in the text or is your own idea.' T confirms the correct answers.
Students
Ss correct their worksheets with a different colour pen and copy the reading strategy into their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 8 minutes

Speaking from notes

Students
Ss listen to the model and look at the keywords on the board.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T walks around and helps Ss who are stuck with keywords. T gives 3 minutes for writing and 2 minutes for practising.

Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion
T invites two or three Ss to speak to the class and notes errors such as the pronunciation of 'Wednesdays' or the use of 'in' or 'on' with days.
Students
Ss speak to the class. A possible answer: 'River School is a small day school. Classes start at seven thirty. The gardening club meets on Wednesdays. I think it is good because Lan learns about plants.'
Teacher
Step 4: Conclusion and assessment
T praises the use of keywords and clear speaking, corrects errors (for example: 'on Wednesdays', not 'in Wednesdays'), and reminds Ss to say 'In my school...' when they talk about their own information.
Students
Ss repeat the corrected sentences and write the correct forms in their notebooks.

Activity 3: Practice · 10 minutes

Answering comprehension questions

a) Aims

Ss answer detailed questions with evidence from the text, explain why other options are wrong, and self-correct their answers.

b) Content

Ss answer questions 2 to 7 of Skills 1 in pairs. Questions 2 to 6 are multiple choice or short answer. Question 7 asks why Lan likes the club. For each answer, Ss show the evidence sentence and explain why the other options are wrong. Ss use the NeoEdu interactive exercises to check quickly (neoedu.vn/learn/6/english/unit-1-skills-1).

c) Expected outcomes

Answer key:

Q2: C. Near a rice field. Evidence: 'River School is a small day school near a rice field.'
Q3: B. At seven thirty. Evidence: 'Classes start at seven thirty.'
Q4: A swimming pool. Evidence: 'There is a reading room, but there is no swimming pool.'
Q5: C. On Wednesdays. Evidence: 'On Wednesdays, the gardening club grows vegetables behind the playground.'

Teacher's activities

Students' activities

Teacher
Step 1: Task delivering
T displays questions 2 to 7 and says: 'Find the evidence first, then choose the answer. If your answer is wrong, find the reason and correct it.'
Students
Ss read the questions and look for key words in each question.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T asks pairs to answer two questions each, then check the other options. T gives 6 minutes.
Students
Ss work in pairs. For example, when checking Q6, Ss say: 'Option A, on foot? No, the text says cycles.' Ss record the evidence sentence for each answer.
Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion
T calls on pairs to read their answers and evidence. T asks: 'How does Lan travel to school?' If an S chooses A, T asks: 'Find the evidence. What does the text say?'
Students
Ss answer: 'B, by bike. The text says she cycles to school.' Ss who first chose A correct themselves: 'Oh, I was wrong. Cycles means by bike.'
Teacher
Step 4: Conclusion and assessment
T confirms the answer key and summarises: 'Look at the question word (where, when, how, why), find the matching sentence, and check the other options. Correct your answer if the evidence does not match.'
Students
Ss check and correct their answers and write the correct answers in their notebooks.

Activity 4: Application · 10 minutes

Tell a partner and compare

a) Aims

Ss retell the text to a partner, compare one detail with their own school, and give a useful idea from the text, clearly separating text information from personal information.

b) Content

Ss use their notes on Worksheet No.2 to tell a partner about River School. Then Ss compare one detail with their own school using 'In my school...'. Ss answer question 8: 'What useful idea can you take from this text? Give one detail as evidence.' Then Ss answer question 9: 'Tell a partner about the text, then compare one detail with your own life.'

c) Expected outcomes

Sample speaking: 'River School is near a rice field. Classes start at seven thirty, and the gardening club meets on Wednesdays. Lan enjoys working with friends and learning about plants. In my school, we also have a garden, but our club meets on Fridays.'

Students
Ss listen to the model and note the phrase 'In my school' to show personal information.
Teacher
Step 2: Task performance
T asks pairs to take turns, each speaking for about 3 minutes. T walks around and listens for the use of keywords and the phrase 'In my school'.
Students
Ss take turns retelling River School with keywords, then compare one detail with their own school. The partner gives one useful idea from the text.
Teacher
Step 3: Report and discussion
T invites two or three pairs to share with the class and asks the listeners: 'Is that in the text or is it their idea?'
Students
Some pairs share, for example: 'A useful idea is that the club helps students work together.' Listeners answer: 'It is the idea of the speaker, not the text.'
Teacher
Step 4: Conclusion and assessment
T praises the clear speaking and the use of evidence, corrects errors in front of the class, and reminds Ss to check their own speaking by using their notes.
Students
Ss repeat the corrected sentences and write one sentence about their own school in their notebooks.
