b) Content

Ss learn the words: cartoon (phim hoạt hình), documentary (phim tài liệu), channel (kênh truyền hình), programme (chương trình), viewer (người xem), educational (có tính giáo dục), comedy (phim hài), character (nhân vật). Key points: a programme (one programme), a channel (a TV channel), a viewer (a person who watches TV), a character (a person or animal in a story). A documentary explains a real topic; a comedy aims to make people laugh. Example: 'The nature programme is educational.'

c) Expected outcomes

    T asks 2 to 3 Ss to read their notes aloud and checks their pronunciation. T asks: 'Is a documentary a fiction film? Why?'

    Students

    Ss answer: 'No, a documentary explains a real topic.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the meanings and the use of a/an, and points out the common mistake of translating word by word. T reminds Ss to read the whole context before choosing an answer.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 8 minutes

Pronouncing /θ/ and /ð/

a) Aims

Ss recognise and produce the voiceless sound /θ/ and the voiced sound /ð/ correctly.

b) Content

Ss learn the mouth position: put the tip of the tongue lightly between the teeth and push out a little air. /θ/ is voiceless, as in think and three. /ð/ is voiced, as in this and mother. Group A: think, three, thanks. Group B: this, mother, they. Ss listen to each word, repeat it and record themselves to compare with the model.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss can produce /θ/ in think, three, thanks without changing it to /t/ or /s/, and produce /ð/ in this, mother, they without changing it to /d/. Ss can explain: 'The /θ/ sound has no vibration in the throat, the /ð/ sound has vibration.'

d) Organisation

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks 3 to 4 Ss to say the words aloud and asks the class to decide whether the sound is voiced or voiceless.

    Students

    Ss answer: 'Think is voiceless, this is voiced.' Ss self-correct if they hear themselves say /t/ or /d/ instead.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the key rule: /θ/ is voiceless, /ð/ is voiced; do not bite the tongue hard; keep the tongue light. T encourages Ss to practise at home.

    Students

    Ss write the two sounds with 3 example words each in their notebooks.
