  Toucan No, itisn´t. • Teaching approach: based on the Natural Approach (Stephen Krashen) and the PPP method. The students are encouraged to speak English naturally, without being forced to do it. • Materials and resources: computer, projector and screen, internet connection, speakers, animal flashcards in a PowerPoint presentation, small cards with the names and pictures of the animals, animal puppets. • Pedagogical use of ICT in class: the students watch three videos. The first one acts as a hello routine, which attempts to activate students, whereas the second video is to introduce the topic of the lesson. Finally, they watch a goodbye video that contains a lot of animals and funny rhymes. • Seating arrangement: first, the students sit on the floor as a horseshoe and watch the videos and flashcards. Then, they stand up to sing and dance. They sit on the floor again and finally they stand up again to dance the goodbye song. • Possible problems / difficulties and possible solutions during the class: in case there wasn´t internet connection, I would download the video before the class. If it didn´t work, I would sing and use the small cards to present the animals. The students may get distracted or not pay attention at some point in the class. If that happened, I would say: ´1, 2, 3, eyes on me!´ • Potential problems students may have with the language: the students may not understand one of the words. In that case, I would ask several students different questions until everybody understands. If someone seemed not to understand, I would encourage the students to help him or her. • Assessment: what will be assessed and how: the students singing the song is a form of assessment as well as the final speaking activity, when the students are to talk about the animals they like. ROUTINE (5´) Purpose: to engage students, to make them focus on the lesson and to revise language structures. Students listen to the following song: The teacher says: ´Hello everyone! Let´s sing a hello song! (and she calls for all the names of the children).

(pointing at the monkey) The students say: ´noo. Monkey´. ´It´s a monkey!´ The students name the animals they know. Transition: The teacher says: we are going to watch a video about animals in the jungle, OK? (enthusiastically) and the children answer yes! PRESENTATION: (5´) Purpose: to continue showing the students the new contents to learn, and to guide the students into practice. The students watch the following video. As they watch, the teacher asks the students is it a..? before the animals appear, and then they say the names of the animals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25_u1GzruQM

Querida familia: Hoy aprendimos a decir nuevos nombres de animales de la selva. Miramos un nuevo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25_u1GzruQM Practicamos cómo decir los nombres de los animales en inglés, hicimos un poster de la selva y bailamos al ritmo de las canciones. Pueden seguir practicando en casa! Lesson plan component Excellent 5 Very Good 4 Good 3 Acceptable 2 Below Standard 1 Visual organization x Coherence and sequencing x Variety of resources – Learning styles x Stages and activities x Teaching strategies x Language accuracy x Observations Nice lesson, Nadya! I think you should exploit The Animal Boogie song more, it is really catchy! You can even play the song while they are making the poster, it would provide a lively atmosphere to the lesson. Have a great time! Aure
