I. Objectives

1. Knowledge

  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
    • Use the eight topic words of Unit 6 (decorate, celebrate, relative, lucky money, peach flower, apricot flower, wish, gather) correctly in context.
    • Pronounce the sounds /s/ and /ʃ/ and distinguish them in single words such as see, sun, celebrate, she, wish, shopping.
    • Choose the correct word or meaning by using the context of a sentence and self-correct mistakes.

2. Competences

a) General competences

  • Self-control and independent learning: Ss check their own pronunciation by recording and comparing it with the model, and correct their own answers after the teacher's feedback.
  • Communication and collaboration: Ss work in pairs to practise the words, take turns to ask and answer, and give peer feedback on pronunciation and meaning.
  • Problem-solving and creativity: Ss explain why a word fits a context and create two original sentences using topic words about Tet.

b) Specific competences

  • Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss listen to words and identify them, read words aloud, say a sentence with a chosen word, and write two original sentences about Tet.
  • Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss learn the meaning of eight topic words in context, distinguish /s/ and /ʃ/, and use the words in sentences with correct structure.

3. Personal qualities

  • Diligence: Ss practise pronunciation repeatedly and record their voice until they hear the difference between /s/ and /ʃ/.
  • Responsibility: Ss complete each task on time and take responsibility for their own answers and corrections.
  • Honesty: Ss admit when they are unsure of a word's meaning and ask the teacher or classmates instead of guessing.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the picture and asks two guiding questions: 'What do you see?' and 'What do people do at Tet?'

    Students

    Ss look at the picture and listen to the questions.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors and gives help with vocabulary when needed.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 12 minutes

Vocabulary in Use

a) Aims

Ss understand the meaning of the eight topic words and how they are used in context.

b) Content

T presents the words decorate (trang trí), celebrate (ăn mừng, đón lễ), relative (họ hàng), lucky money (tiền mừng tuổi), peach flower (hoa đào), apricot flower (hoa mai), wish (lời chúc, điều ước), gather (sum họp). For each word, T shows a picture or a sample sentence, for example: 'We decorate our house with apricot flowers.' 'We gather with our relatives on Tet.' 'Children receive lucky money.' Ss match words with meanings and make their own example sentences about real people, places or objects.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss write the eight words with their meanings in their notebooks and a sample sentence for each word. Example answers: 'We decorate our house before Tet.' 'My grandparents celebrate Tet with us.' 'I receive lucky money from my relatives.' 'We send wishes for a happy new year.' 'My family gathers for a big meal on Tet.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the flashcards and the pictures, and asks: 'What does this word mean? Look at the picture and the sentence.'

    Students

    Ss look at the pictures and listen to the sample sentences.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T uses a jigsaw technique: each pair receives 2 words and their meanings on cards, and they discuss how to match them and make one example sentence about their own family.

    Students

    Ss work in pairs, match words with meanings and write example sentences. Expected answer: 'Decorate - trang trí. We decorate our house with flowers.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on pairs to read their sentences and checks whether the words are used with correct meaning in context.

    Students

    Pairs read their sentences aloud. Other pairs check the meaning. Expected answer: 'Lucky money - tiền mừng tuổi. My grandmother gives me lucky money.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the eight words, stresses that words must be learned with their context, and reminds Ss not to translate word by word.

    Students

    Ss copy the summary and correct their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Pronunciation: /s/ and /ʃ/

a) Aims

Ss recognise and produce the sounds /s/ and /ʃ/ and distinguish them in words.

b) Content

T explains that /s/ is made with air passing through a narrow gap near the teeth, like the sound in see. /ʃ/ is made with the tongue pulled back and the lips slightly rounded, like the sound in she. T notes that a letter s does not always have the sound /s/, so Ss must learn the sound in the whole word. Group A: see, sun, celebrate. Group B: she, wish, shopping. T models each word, Ss repeat in chorus and individually, and then record themselves and compare.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss can say the words in group A with /s/ and the words in group B with /ʃ/. Ss can identify the correct sound in the listening items: item 1 is see (A), item 2 is wish (C). Ss can explain in one sentence how /s/ and /ʃ/ are different.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T demonstrates mouth position for /s/ and /ʃ/ with a mirror or by gesture, and asks: 'Do you hear the same sound in see and she?'

    Students

    Ss watch and listen carefully, and then try to copy the mouth position.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T plays the audio. Ss listen, repeat and then record themselves on their phone, and compare their voice with the model in pairs.

    Students

    Ss repeat the words in chorus, then in pairs. Ss listen and give each other feedback. Expected answer: 'I think the sound in she is like sh, the tongue goes back.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T plays listening items 1 and 2 and asks Ss to choose the word they hear.

    Students

    Ss raise hands or write the answer. Expected answers: item 1 - A (see); item 2 - C (wish).

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the answers, corrects mispronunciations, and reminds Ss to learn the sound of the whole word, not only the letter.

    Students

    Ss write the sound symbols /s/ and /ʃ/ and two example words for each in their notebooks.

Activity 3: Practice · 9 minutes

Check and Choose

a) Aims

Ss consolidate vocabulary and pronunciation by completing the exercises in the lesson, and explain their choices using context.

b) Content

Ss complete Worksheet 1 and the exercises 1 to 6 in the book, working individually and then in pairs. Ss listen and choose the word they hear (items 1 and 2), match topic words to meanings (item 3), choose the word that means 'trang trí' (item 4), complete the word from its Vietnamese meaning (item 5), and choose the correct meaning of 'gather' (item 6). Ss explain their choice by pointing to the context.

    T distributes Worksheet 1 and explains the instructions. T asks Ss to read each question carefully and find clues in the context.

    Students

    Ss read the instructions and the questions. Ss ask questions if they do not understand.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors and gives help individually, and encourages Ss to explain their answers.

    Students

    Ss complete the worksheet individually for 4 minutes, then compare answers with a partner. Expected answer: 'I choose B because decorate means trang trí, and we decorate the house.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks several Ss to give their answers and reasons, and invites others to agree or disagree.

    Students

    Ss report their answers. Expected answer: 'Gather means sum họp, because we gather with relatives on Tet.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T shows the answer key, explains the common mistakes, and reminds Ss to check the context and their own answers.

    Ss check their work, correct mistakes with a different colour pen and write the correct answers.

Activity 4: Application · 9 minutes

Our Tet Sentences

a) Aims

Ss use topic words to write and say original sentences about their own Tet holiday, and practise pronunciation in a real speaking task.

b) Content

Ss write two original sentences using two different topic words from this lesson, for example: 'My family decorates our house with apricot flowers.' Then Ss read the list of words see, sun, celebrate, she, wish, shopping aloud, and say one sentence using one of these words, for example: 'I wish you a happy new year.' Ss record their sentence and send it to T as homework if time is short.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss write two sentences with correct meaning and grammar, for example: 'We gather with our relatives on Tet.' 'I receive lucky money from my grandparents.' Ss read six words with correct sounds and say one sentence aloud. Teacher's scoring: 2 points for each writing sentence (1 for meaning, 1 for grammar); for speaking, 1 point for the target sound and clear ending, and 1 point for rhythm and meaningful sentence.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T explains the task and shows two model sentences on the board. T reminds Ss to use two different words and to read the words aloud before speaking.

    Students

    Ss listen and look at the model sentences.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors, gives feedback on sentence structure, and listens to pronunciation of selected Ss.

    Students

    Ss write two sentences individually, then read the six words aloud and say one sentence with a chosen word in pairs. Expected answer: 'I celebrate Tet with my family.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T invites 3 or 4 Ss to read their sentences to the class and gives praise and comments.

    Students

    Ss read their sentences. Expected answer: 'My family decorates our house with peach flowers. We wish each other a happy new year.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the key points: use words in context, check sounds /s/ and /ʃ/, and proofread sentences. T sets homework.
