I. Objectives

1. Knowledge

  • By the end of the lesson, Ss will be able to:
    • Use the expressions 'Congratulations on your win!' and 'Thank you. I practised a lot.' to congratulate a friend and respond to congratulations in sports contexts.
    • Identify the question and the matching answer in a short conversation about a sports match.
    • Explain why a reply is correct by checking its meaning against the context.
    • Use the vocabulary of the unit (racket, goggles, equipment, competition, winner, marathon, aerobics, referee) in a communication task.

2. Competences

a) General competences

  • Self-control and independent learning: Ss work on the exercises individually first, check their own choices against the answer key, and correct their own mistakes based on the context.
  • Communication and collaboration: Ss take turns in pairs to practise a congratulation dialogue, ask for repetition politely when needed, and give peer feedback on pronunciation and politeness.
  • Problem-solving and creativity: Ss choose the correct reply by analysing the context, and create a new conversation by changing at least one name or detail from the model.

b) Specific competences

  • Communicative competence in English through listening, speaking, reading and writing: Ss congratulate a friend on a win, respond politely, and carry out a four-turn conversation about a sports match, including a request for repetition.
  • Language knowledge (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar): Ss pronounce the target expressions clearly, use the unit vocabulary correctly, and use the simple past forms 'won', 'practised', 'thanked' in context.

3. Personal qualities

  • Kindness: Ss praise a classmate's effort and good sportsmanship sincerely, and avoid bragging or mocking the loser.
  • Honesty: Ss admit their wrong choices during the checking stage and correct them without copying from peers.
  • Responsibility: Ss complete individual tasks on time and take an active part in pair work.

II. Teaching aids and materials

1. Teacher

  • Lesson plan, projector or interactive board, and slides with the model conversation and the eight exercises
  • Flashcards or pictures of: racket, goggles, equipment, competition, winner, marathon, aerobics, referee

Activity 1: Warm-up · 5 minutes

Sports Picture Chat

a) Aims

Ss activate prior knowledge of sports vocabulary and get ready for the topic of congratulating a friend on a win.

b) Content

T shows flashcards of racket, goggles, equipment, competition, winner, marathon, aerobics and referee one by one. T asks Ss: 'What is this?' and 'What do we need for a competition?'. Then T asks: 'Have you ever won a competition? How did you feel?'

c) Expected outcomes

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T greets the class and says: 'Today we will learn how to congratulate a friend on a win. First, let's review some sports words.' T shows the first flashcard.

    Students

    Ss look at the flashcards and listen carefully to the teacher.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks 'What is this?' for each flashcard and asks 'What do we need for a competition?'. T gives time for Ss to think, then calls on individuals.

    Students

    Ss answer individually or in chorus, e.g. 'It's a racket.' 'We need equipment, a racket and goggles.'

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks a few Ss: 'Have you ever won a competition? How did you feel?' T listens and gives brief feedback.

    Students

    Some Ss share short answers, e.g. 'I won a running race. I felt happy.' Others listen and react.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T praises the class and says: 'Good job! Today we will use these words when we talk about a match.' T writes the title 'Expressing congratulations' on the board.

    Students

    Ss copy the title into their notebooks.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Expressing Congratulations

a) Aims

Ss understand how to express congratulations on a friend's win and how to respond politely, and recognise that good sportsmanship deserves praise, not only winning.

b) Content

T presents the key model: 'Congratulations on your win!' and the reply 'Thank you. I practised hard.' T explains that we can praise effort or good play, and that we should not boast or mock the person who lost. Ss look at the short model and then answer the questions: 'What do we say to congratulate someone?' 'How do we reply?' 'Why is fair play worth praising?'

c) Expected outcomes

Ss write in their notebooks:

  • Congratulating: Congratulations on your win!
  • Responding: Thank you. I practised hard.
  • Good sportsmanship: playing fairly is worth praising even if you do not win.
  • Do not boast or laugh at the loser.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the slide with the model and says: 'Listen and repeat. Then answer my questions in your notebook.' T asks: 'What is the purpose of the first line?'

    Students

    Ss listen, repeat the model in chorus, and read the questions carefully.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T models the pronunciation of 'Congratulations on your win!' and 'Thank you. I practised hard.' and asks Ss to read after T. T walks around, checks pronunciation and helps Ss who are stuck.

    Students

    Ss work individually to note the purpose of each line. Expected answer: The first line congratulates a friend; the reply accepts the praise and thanks the friend.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks: 'Why is fair play worth praising?' and 'What should we avoid when we win or lose?' T invites 2-3 Ss to answer.

    Students

    Ss answer, e.g. 'Fair play is good, even if you lose.' 'We should not boast or laugh at the loser.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the key points on the board: congratulate, reply with thanks, praise good sportsmanship, and avoid bragging or mocking. T reminds Ss of the phrases 'Congratulations!' 'Well done!' 'Thank you.'

    Students

    Ss check their notes and correct any mistakes in their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Practise Purposefully

a) Aims

Ss identify the question and the matching answer in a model conversation and explain their choices by using the context, then practise changing a detail in the model.

b) Content

Ss read the model conversation between Hung and Mai. They match each question with its answer and explain why the answer fits. Then in pairs, Ss change one detail (for example, the name of the sister or the result of the match) and practise the conversation. Worksheet No. 1 is used for this task.

c) Expected outcomes

Model conversation (correct order):

  • Hung: I heard you won your first match. Congratulations!
  • Mai: Thank you. I practised with my sister.
  • Hung: Was it a close match?
  • Mai: Yes. I thanked the other player afterwards.

Question-answer pairs:

  • 'Was it a close match?' - 'Yes. I thanked the other player afterwards.'
  • 'Congratulations!' - 'Thank you. I practised with my sister.'
    Ss also write one changed line, for example: 'Thank you. I practised with my brother.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T distributes Worksheet No. 1 and says: 'Read the conversation. Find the question and its answer. Then explain why the answer fits.' T gives a model: 'Question: Was it a close match? Answer: Yes. Because Mai answers the question.'

    Students

    Ss read the conversation silently and look at the worksheet.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to work in pairs. T monitors, helps Ss who cannot explain their reasons, and reminds them to ask for repetition if they do not understand: 'Could you repeat the last part, please?'

    Students

    Pairs match the question-answer pairs and explain. Then they change one detail, e.g. 'I practised with my brother.' They practise the conversation twice, swapping roles.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on 2-3 pairs to read their conversation with the changed detail and asks the class: 'Is the answer correct? Why?'

    Students

    Pairs read their conversations aloud. Other Ss listen and say whether the answer matches the question.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T checks the matching on the board, explains that a reply must answer the question that was asked, and reminds Ss not to end the conversation with a greeting instead of the missing answer.

    Students

    Ss correct their worksheets and write the correct order in their notebooks.
