Time : 9am-10am / 1 hour

The objective:

1. Student will be able to create and present digital self reflection that demonstrates understanding of vocabulary through personal expression.

2.Student will be able to give simple advice using modal verb.

The idea:

To tranform this lesson to digital learning experiences. I will integrate interactive platform such as:

a) padlets

b) canva

Through this platform they will work with the vocabulary for example ( get, join, quit, make, join and lose) on based on the topic in UNIT 7 : CHANGE Lesson A | I need a change.

The steps:

1. They will complete this activity using padlet sticky notes where they have to drag and drop the correct verb next to each image digitally.

2. Then they go to canva to create a short digital college or videoclip to express the two personal changes they would like express.

3. Finally they will have to post their work in padlets.

The Feedbacks:

• Vocabulary Understanding was Achieved

  • Students accurately used verbs like get, quit, make, join, and lose in the Padlet activity.

  • They were able to match the verbs to appropriate sentences and images, showing comprehension.

• Effective Use of Modal Verbs

  • Most students successfully used modal verbs such as should and want to when creating their digital reflections (e.g., I should lose weight, I want to get a new haircut).

  • This aligns well with the second lesson objective.

• High Engagement with Digital Tools

  • Padlet and Canva made the lesson more interactive and student-centred.

  • Students were motivated to complete the tasks and enjoyed using the platforms to express their ideas.

• Development of Personal Expression

  • The Canva collage/video task allowed students to connect vocabulary to their own lives.

  • They expressed real and relatable changes they want to make, enhancing personal relevance and critical thinking.

• Collaborative and Supportive Environment

  • Peer interaction was observed, especially when some students needed help navigating Canva.

  • Students supported each other, building a cooperative classroom atmosphere.

• Improved Digital Literacy

  • Most students were comfortable with Padlet and learned to use Canva effectively with some guidance.

  • This activity supported their development of 21st-century digital communication skills.

• Lesson Objectives Were Met

  • Both intended outcomes – understanding vocabulary and giving advice using modal verbs – were clearly achieved.

  • The integration of tech tools added value and enriched the learning experience.

Learning Objectives:

• Students will learn and understand the meaning of 8–10 common adjectives (e.g., hot, cold, big, small, lovely, horrible) through online flashcards with pictures and audio.

• Students will use these adjectives to describe places or things in short sentences (e.g., “The café is small.” or “The soup is hot.”), using digital tools like Padlet or Flipgrid.

Age Group: A1 (Beginner) level learners (Teenagers Age 13)

In this activity, students use Quizlet to learn and practice vocabulary (adjectives). Referring/inspired taken from Unit 7, such as hot, cold, expensive, cheap, big, small. Each flashcard includes the word, a picture, audio pronunciation, and a sample sentence. Students study the words using different modes like flashcards, games (Match, Gravity), and quizzes. This helps them remember the vocabulary through repetition, visuals, and immediate feedback in a fun and interactive way.

Steps to conduct activity:

Mode: Online / Distance Learning

1. Create a Quizlet set with adjectives, images, audio, and example sentences from Unit 7.

2. Share the link with students through your online platform (Google Classroom, WhatsApp, etc.).

3. Students study independently using Flashcards, Learn, and Match modes (15–20 minutes).

4. Follow-up task: Students write or record 2–3 simple sentences using the new vocabulary.

5. Students submit work on Padlet on what do they think about the activity for sharing and peer learning.

6. Teacher gives feedback through comments or short video/audio replies.

7. (Optional) Review vocabulary in a live Zoom session with a Quizlet Live game or student sharing.

Transformed TESOL Unit: Music & Emotions (Speaking & Listening Focus)

Delivery Mode: Online/Virtual Learning (e.g., Zoom, Google Classroom, Padlet)

Introduction:

Begin the session by introducing the theme: Music and how it reflects emotions and identity.

Explain that music is a powerful medium for expression, and it can be used to develop both listening and speaking skills in English.

Step-by-Step Delivery (Online Mode):

Step 1 – Share Favourites (Input & Engagement):

• Ask each student to share their favourite song or artist in the class forum (e.g., Padlet, Google Docs, or WhatsApp group).

• Students must paste a link to the song (from YouTube/Spotify).

• This activity promotes language input through authentic listening materials selected by the students themselves.

Why Online Mode Works Better:

Students can access songs anytime, replay parts, and explore music genres beyond the textbook. It personalizes learning and taps into real-world media.

Step 2 – Listening Session (Input):

• During the live session (e.g., Zoom), choose 3–5 songs to play short clips (30 secs – 1 min).

• Ask students to listen carefully and take notes on what they feel or think.

Language Input: Students are exposed to authentic accents, lyrics, and musical expressions.

Step 3 – Emotional Response (Output):

• Ask students to write or record a short paragraph/speech on how their chosen song makes them feel.

• They should use descriptive emotional vocabulary (e.g., nostalgic, excited, hopeful).

Language Output: This allows learners to express personal experiences with emotional language in writing or speaking form (voice notes).

Step 4 – Highlight and Explain (Output + Feedback):

• Students highlight a favorite line or part of the melody and explain their choice (in class or via video).

• Peers can comment or react using discussion boards or comment features (e.g., on Padlet or Google Docs).

Feedback Opportunities:

• Peer feedback (comments and reactions)

• Teacher can give targeted feedback via voice notes, rubrics, or written replies

Learning Objectives Achieved:

• Promote student engagement and motivation through music.

• Develop emotional and expressive vocabulary.

• Enhance speaking and listening skills through real-world, authentic input.

Lesson Title:

Ordering Food in English: Building Confidence for Real-Life Restaurant Interactions

Problem Statement

Despite having intermediate English proficiency, students often experience anxiety or hesitation when speaking spontaneously, particularly in real-world contexts such as ordering food or making polite requests. While they may know relevant vocabulary, they frequently lack the fluency and confidence to apply it in live interactions.

Scenario Prompt

Your classmates are preparing to travel abroad for a university exchange program. They will need to order food in restaurants where English is the primary language. This lesson helps them learn how to order meals confidently, make polite requests, and respond appropriately in a dining setting.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

1. Apply appropriate restaurant expressions and vocabulary during a simulated ordering task through live virtual role-plays using Zoom breakout rooms.

2. Analyse food-related details from a digital menu to make informed choices in interactive speaking activities.

Digital Tools Used:

Zoom: Live teaching, breakout room role-play, chat.

YouTube: Authentic modelling of restaurant dialogue.

Menu Image: Visual input during role-play simulation.

Kahoot: Gamified vocabulary and expression review
