III. Procedures

Activity 1: Warm-up · 5 minutes

Healthy habits brainstorm

a) Aims

Warm-up: activate Ss' prior knowledge of the topic healthy living and prepare them for the review of Unit 2.

b) Content

Ss look at the picture cards (exercising, drinking water, sleeping well, wearing a hat) and answer the question: “What do you do to stay healthy?” Ss use short sentences with the words healthy, active and avoid.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss give 4 to 5 sentences, for example:

  • “We exercise every day.”
  • “Mai drinks water after sport.”
  • “She is active in the morning.”
  • “I avoid junk food.”
    T writes the topic words healthy, active and avoid on the board.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the picture cards and asks: “What do you do to stay healthy? Tell me in one or two sentences.” T introduces the aim of the lesson: to review simple sentences, pronunciation and topic language of Unit 2.

    Students

    Ss listen carefully and look at the pictures.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T gives Ss 1 minute to think, then asks them to share their ideas with a partner.

    Students

    Ss think silently and discuss with a partner, using the words healthy, active and avoid if they can.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on 3 or 4 Ss to report and writes their sentences on the board. T corrects gently if needed.

    Students

    Ss read their sentences aloud. Possible answers: “We exercise every day.” / “I avoid junk food.” / “She is active.”

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T praises the answers and says: “Today we will check how well you can build simple sentences, pronounce /f/ and /v/ and use topic words.”

    Students

    Ss write the lesson title in their notebooks: Looking Back – Unit 2.

Activity 2.1: Knowledge formation · 8 minutes

Simple sentences: structure and repair

a) Aims

Systematise the structure of simple sentences: subject + verb, subject + verb + object, subject + be + adjective, and imperatives for advice.

b) Content

T displays three patterns on the board:

  • subject + verb: “We exercise”
  • subject + verb + object: “Mai drinks water”
  • subject + be + adjective: “She is active”
    Ss then consider: “Mai and Nam walk to school” (one shared verb phrase, still a simple sentence) and “Wear a hat.” (an imperative for advice).
    Question for Ss: “Is ‘Because my sister sleeps’ a complete sentence? Why not?”

c) Expected outcomes

Ss copy the table into their notebooks:

  • Pattern 1: subject + verb (We exercise.)
  • Pattern 2: subject + verb + object (Mai drinks water.)
  • Pattern 3: subject + be + adjective (She is active.)
  • Imperative for advice (Wear a hat.)
    Key idea: a simple sentence has one main clause. Do not join unrelated clauses with just a comma.
    Expected answer: “Because my sister sleeps” is not complete because it has no main clause.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T writes the three patterns on the board and asks Ss to read the examples aloud. T asks: “Which part is the subject? Which part is the verb?”

    Students

    Ss read the examples and listen to T's questions.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to work in pairs and identify the subject and the finite verb in “Mai and Nam walk to school” and “A short walk helps me relax.”

    Students

    Ss discuss in pairs. Expected answers: “Mai and Nam” / “walk”; “A short walk” / “helps”.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on pairs to share. T asks: “Is ‘Because my sister sleeps’ a complete sentence?”

    Students

    Ss answer: “No, it is not complete because it has no main clause; it needs a main clause after it.”

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T summarises the patterns, emphasises the key rule (one main clause; no comma splice) and models an imperative for advice: “Wear a hat.” T reminds Ss: a correct keyword does not make an irrelevant answer correct; always use the complete context.

    Students

    Ss copy the summary and the key rule into their notebooks.

Activity 2.2: Knowledge formation · 6 minutes

Pronunciation: /f/ and /v/

a) Aims

Recognise and pronounce the voiceless /f/ and the voiced /v/ and distinguish them in words.

b) Content

T models the sounds:

  • /f/: air passes between the lower lip and upper teeth, no voice (fan)
  • /v/: same position, with voice (van)
    Ss touch their throat to feel the vibration in van. Ss listen to and repeat fan, van, leaf and leave, paying attention to the final sounds in leaf and leave.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss complete a short table in their notebooks:

  • /f/ (voiceless): fan, leaf
  • /v/ (voiced): van, leave
    Ss identify the target label of van: /v/.

d) Organisation

  1. Teacher

    Step 1: Task delivering

    T shows the lip position for /f/ and /v/ and asks Ss to put a hand on their throat.

    Students

    Ss watch and follow T's model.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T plays the audio. Ss listen and repeat chorally, then individually. T monitors and corrects.

    Students

    Ss listen, repeat and feel the vibration on their throat for /v/ but not for /f/.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T asks: “Which word has the voiced sound?” and “Which label fits van?”

    Students

    Ss answer: “van” has the voiced sound; the label for van is /v/.

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms: /f/ is voiceless (fan) and /v/ is voiced (van). T reminds Ss to keep the final sound in leaf and leave.

    Students

    Ss write the two sounds and example words in their notebooks.

Activity 2.3: Knowledge formation · 6 minutes

Topic vocabulary and giving advice

a) Aims

Recall topic vocabulary of healthy living and the steps of giving safe advice to someone with a health problem.

b) Content

T presents the words: active (năng động), avoid (tránh), healthy (lành mạnh), sunburn (cháy nắng). Ss match each word with its meaning and make one sentence with each word.
T introduces the advice steps: acknowledge the problem, give safe general advice, and suggest adult help if it continues.
Technique: Think-Pair-Share.

c) Expected outcomes

Ss write the matching list:

  • active – năng động

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T asks Ss to match the words with the Vietnamese meanings and make one sentence with each word. T gives them 2 minutes.

    Students

    Ss think individually, then pair up to compare their sentences.

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on several pairs to read their sentences and checks the meaning of sunburn with the class.

    Students

    Ss share sentences. Possible answers: “Put on a hat to avoid sunburn.” / “Stay active and eat healthy food.”

  4. Teacher

    Step 4: Conclusion and assessment

    T confirms the meanings and the advice steps. T notes that the advice must be safe and general.

    Students

    Ss copy the matching list and the advice steps into their notebooks.

    Students

    Ss receive the worksheet and read the instructions.

  2. Teacher

    Step 2: Task performance

    T walks around, checks progress and gives hints without giving the answers directly. After 5 minutes, T asks Ss to check their answers with a partner for 3 minutes.

    Students

    Ss answer individually, then compare and explain their answers to their partner. Ss may say, for example: “Because it has a subject and a verb, so it is complete.”

  3. Teacher

    Step 3: Report and discussion

    T calls on individual Ss to give answers to items 1 to 9 and asks others to agree or disagree.
