Curricular Thread 1:
Communication and cultural
awareness
EFL 4.1.5. Apply self-correcting and
self-monitoring strategies in social
and classroom interactions.
(Example: asking questions, starting
over, rephrasing, exploring
alternative pronunciations or
wording, etc.)
Learners can employ a
range of self-monitoring
and self-correcting
strategies. Ref
(I.EFL.4.3.1.) (I.3, S.4, J.4)
Warm up: Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Moe
Introducing vocabulary: Throughout the year you’ll be using
classroom language and it’s important for children to be
introduced to it very early on so that they can understand what
you want them to do. Giving clear, simple instructions is not
always easy. Here are some tips to make yours effective:
• Actions can speak louder than words – always demonstrate
• This lesson focuses on vocabulary related to classroom
language (“open your books”, “stand up”, “sit down” etc).
Students will practice both listening to and producing this
language with 2 simple games. Then there is an activity where
students will come up with classroom rules and sign their own
class contract. Finally students will review / learn vocabulary
related to classroom materials (scissors, books, pens, bags,
Sellotape etc).
Practice:
This is a great visual and interactive game to introduce and
review instructions.
Start the lesson by asking everyone to stand up. Say ‘Everyone,
stand up.’ Show them what you mean by standing up yourself
Observation
Direct observation of behaviours in
actual or simulated work settings.
Writing Exercises
Write up on the board the
instructions they met in the previous
for them to copy
into their books, leaving enough
space next to each instruction for a
picture. Then
they could draw the corresponding
picture of someone carrying out the
instruction, or draw a picture of an
open book next to the instruction
‘Open your books’.

2. and raising your arms.
Then say ‘Everyone, sit down.’ and demonstrate in the same way
as before. Continue this a few times before introducing new
actions. These should be actions that they will need to perform
throughout the year such as; ‘Put your hand up’ ‘Open your book’
‘Close your book’ ‘Open your bag’ etc
Then go back to the original ‘Stand up’ and ‘Sit down’ to
introduce Simon Says. Say ‘Listen’ and put your hand to your ear
to demonstrate this very useful instruction! ‘Simon says stand up’
then make a show of standing up. Say ‘Sit down’. When they start
to sit down say ‘No, and signal for them to stay standing up.
Then, while emphasizing the first two words say ‘Simon says sit
down’ and actually do it yourself to demonstrate that it’s now OK
for them to sit down too. Continue like this a few times before
moving on to the other actions.
Application: In the last activity the children only heard the
actions. This time it’s up to them to try and
produce some of them orally.
Put the class into two teams and number each child. Ask the
number 1s from each team to come forward. Say ‘Number 1,2
come here.’ Point and motion with your hand to the number 1s.
Show them a picture flashcard of someone doing one of the
previous actions.
The next stage can be done through mime or drawing. They have
to draw on the board for their team the action. The first person
to correctly say the instruction wins a point for their team.
It’s essential to establish some classroom ground rules very early
on. The class contract should be displayed and referred to during
the year if you find that certain rules are being forgotten.
