Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 15 minutes

Learning Hobby Vocabulary

a) Aims

Ss learn the meaning, form and use of six topic words: gardening, collect, model, creative, patient, hobby.

b) Content

Ss look at the six target words with their meanings:

  • gardening (làm vườn)
  • collect (sưu tầm)
  • model (mô hình)
  • creative (sáng tạo)
  • patient (kiên nhẫn)
  • hobby (sở thích)
    Ss work in groups of four with a word-card game. Each group gets a set of word cards and meaning cards. Ss match the words and meanings, then make one sentence with each word about their hobby. Ss complete Worksheet 1.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss complete the matching task correctly:

  • gardening – làm vườn
  • collect – sưu tầm
  • model – mô hình
  • creative – sáng tạo
  • patient – kiên nhẫn
  • hobby – sở thích
    Each group writes at least three sentences using the target words, for example: 'My hobby is gardening.' 'I collect stamps.' 'My brother is very creative.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T introduces the six words with their meanings and reads them aloud. T says: 'Cover the English side, recall the word, then use it in a sentence.' T gives out Worksheet 1 and explains the group task.

    Students

    Ss listen, repeat the words after T and look at their word cards.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T monitors the groups and checks the matching. T asks: 'What does patient mean? Which word means sưu tầm?'

    Students

    Ss match the words to the meanings. Expected answers: 'Patient means kiên nhẫn.' 'Collect means sưu tầm.' Ss write sentences about their hobbies.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks one member from each group to read their sentences aloud. T asks the class: 'Is this sentence correct?'

    Students

    Ss read their sentences aloud. Expected answers: 'I am patient when I make a model.' 'I like gardening because I am creative.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the meanings and corrects any wrong word use, for example: 'Hobby is sở thích, not sở thích học tập.' T says: 'Remember: use the exact word, do not replace it with a similar-looking word.'

    Students

    Ss write the corrected words in their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 10 minutes

Pronouncing Vowels in Sofa and Bird

a) Aims

Ss recognise and pronounce the unstressed vowel /ə/ and the stressed vowel /ɜː/ and understand that spelling does not always show the sound.

b) Content

T plays the recording of the words sofa and bird, and models the two vowel sounds. Ss listen and repeat. T explains that in the printed British IPA model, sofa has a weak final vowel /ə/ and bird has a stressed vowel /ɜː/. In en-US, bird is pronounced with /ɝ/, and teacher ends in /ɚ/. These are accent variants, not mistakes.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss pronounce the words sofa, bird and teacher correctly and state the sound contrast: sofa has an unstressed final vowel /ə/; bird has a stressed vowel /ɜː/ (British model) or /ɝ/ (en-US). Ss also say: 'Do not decide the sound from spelling alone.'

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T writes the words sofa, bird and teacher on the board and asks: 'Which vowel is weak? Which vowel is stressed?'

    Students

    Ss look at the words and listen to the model pronunciation.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T plays the recording two or three times and asks Ss to repeat in pairs. T moves around and listens to pronunciation.

    Students

    Ss listen, repeat and practise in pairs. Ss read the words aloud and try to identify the stressed vowel in bird.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on some Ss to say the words aloud and asks: 'Which part of bird is stressed? Which vowel is at the end of sofa?'

    Students

    Ss answer. Expected answers: 'Bird has a stressed vowel.' 'Sofa ends in a weak vowel /ə/.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the key point: the British model contrasts /ə/ in sofa with /ɜː/ in bird; en-US variants are also correct. T reminds Ss not to decide the sound from the spelling.

    Students

    Ss write the key point in their notebooks.

Activity 3: Practice · 10 minutes

    Ss get at least 5 out of 6 correct answers.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T gives out Worksheet 2 and explains that Ss will do the tasks individually and then check in pairs. T says: 'Read each question carefully before you answer.'

    Students

    Ss listen and take out their pens.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T plays the audio for exercise 4 twice. T walks around and helps Ss who have difficulty.

    Students

    Ss do the exercises individually. Then they check their answers with a partner.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks Ss to give answers for each exercise. T asks: 'Why is B correct for exercise 6?' and 'Why is D wrong?'

    Students

    Ss give answers and explain. Expected answers: 'D is wrong because creative means sáng tạo, not kiên nhẫn.' 'C is correct because model means mô hình.'

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the correct answers, writes them on the board and reminds Ss of the sentence: 'Mai makes small boats every Sunday.' T explains: 'Mai is singular, so a repeated habit takes makes.'

    Students
