Homework (due October 17)
(No discussion board and no reading for this week)


The (previous) Week 5 reading talked about authentic materials and language input. For homework, find one authentic reading (pdf) and one authentic listening material online. 
  • The reading material can be found by searching Google for key words such as “zoo brochure pdf” or “salad recipe pdf” or “exercise routine pdf”.
  • The listening material can be a YouTube video. It should be authentic (not designed for language learning) and less than 4 minutes in length.
For each input material, think about the type of learners, the language content of the material, the vocabulary, what kind of tasks you could do with the material, and how you would plan a lesson. Be ready to share next class.​

Homework for Week 8 (October 24)
Speaking activity micro-teaching practice.
Prepare a short speaking activity to demonstrate with the class.
Any target language. Any age group or level. 
Any materials can be used. 
Think carefully about your instructions and how you will set up the activity.
Be prepared to do your activity with the class next week. 

Homework (due November 7):
Watch the following 2 videos from my Youtube channel. The first is about planning activities. The second is about sequencing activities into a lesson structure called EIF (ECRIF).
Activity Route Map

EIF Framework
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9wZ4V2iVuc 
Homework (due November 14)
Start thinking about and planning a speaking lesson plan. 
The lesson should be focused on developing speaking skills.
Consider target language, warm up steps + scaffolding.
  • Low level students: follow EIF with scaffolding steps. 
  • High level students: consider TBLT + authentic.
Bring your ideas for discussion next week.

Lesson plan + materials deadline - November 28
Bring your lesson plan and materials to class for feedback and workshop. Use the template file below.

Here is an example lesson plan. This uses a different template, but look at how much detail is included in the steps of the lesson. This is a good example of how to write a lesson plan.
