I. Objectives

1. Knowledge

  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to: read a short text about teamwork at Green Camp for gist and specific details, and match each question with a supporting sentence.
  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to: use the adjectives curly, straight, confident, careful, kind, hard-working, creative and shy to describe people's appearance and personality.
  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to: summarise a text in their own words from key words, using three points: topic, two important details and one opinion with a reason.

2. Competences

a) General competences

  • Self-control and independent learning: Ss work alone to scan the text for evidence and check their own answers against the text before discussing them with a partner.
  • Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs to share answers, retell the text and compare a detail with their own lives, and they respect their partner's ideas.
  • Problem-solving and creativity: Ss explain why an answer is correct by pointing to evidence in the text, and they give their own opinion about what makes a good team.

b) Specific competences

  • Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss read for gist and details, retell the story from notes, and talk about a friend using adjectives from the unit.
  • Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss pronounce the eight adjectives correctly, use them in full sentences with the present simple, and use the present continuous to describe actions in the text (Huy is collecting sticks, Mai is drawing).

3. Personal qualities

  • Responsibility: Ss take their roles in pair work seriously and finish each task on time.
  • Kindness: Ss show respect for classmates by listening to their answers and never laughing at mistakes, just as the children at Green Camp do.
  • Honesty: Ss clearly separate what the text says from their own opinions and personal information when they compare details with their own lives.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 12 minutes

Vocabulary and reading for gist and details

a) Aims

Ss pronounce and understand the eight new adjectives, skim the text for its topic, and scan for specific details.

Step 1: T presents the eight words with picture cards, pronunciation drill and meaning in Vietnamese (curly - xoăn, straight - thẳng, confident - tự tin, careful - cẩn thận, kind - tốt bụng, hard-working - chăm chỉ, creative - sáng tạo, shy - nhút nhát). Ss repeat in chorus and individually.
Step 2: Ss skim the text 'At Green Camp...' in 1 minute and answer: 'What is the text about?'
Step 3: Ss read again and complete Worksheet 1, matching each question with the sentence from the text that gives the answer.
Questions to ask: 'Who is tall and has curly hair?', 'Who draws clever plans?', 'What do they do after the bridge falls?'

c) Expected outcomes

Topic of the text: a team of friends at Green Camp building a model bridge and learning to work together.
Worksheet 1 answers:

    Students

    Ss repeat the words and listen to the instructions.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors, checks pronunciation and helps pairs who are stuck by asking: 'Which sentence talks about hair?'

    Students

    Ss work in pairs, skim the text and match the questions with evidence sentences. Expected answer for the topic: 'It is about teamwork.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on pairs to read their answers and asks: 'Where is your evidence?'

    Students

    A pair reads: 'Mai draws clever plans for the team's model bridge.' The class checks and agrees.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the answers and explains the difference: 'Sentences in the text are what the author says. Your own ideas are different. Always show the evidence.'

    Students

    Ss write the eight adjectives and the answers in their notebook.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 8 minutes

Speaking from notes

a) Aims

Ss retell the text in their own words using key words, and give an opinion with a reason.

Ss work in pairs to retell the text in 1 minute, using only the key words. Then Ss give one opinion: 'What useful idea can you take from this text?'

c) Expected outcomes

A short retelling in Ss' own words, for example: 'The text is about a team at Green Camp. Mai draws plans and Huy collects sticks. When the bridge falls, they change the plan together. I think a good team needs different strengths, because each person can do a different job.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T writes the three points on the board and says: 'Use only key words. Do not copy the whole text.'

    Ss answer: 'It is from the text.' or 'It is my own idea.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T praises the clear retelling and reminds Ss: 'When you speak from notes, say clearly if the information is from the text or from you.'

    Students

    Ss note the three-point structure in their notebook.

Activity 3: Practice · 12 minutes
